Quoted from Grandma Bear Marnie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I got tired of waiting for an OWC prompt that might push me to write about two broads with bad knees who go white water rafting in NC, get lost and have to fight the elements, back woods red necks and Guiness withdrawals in order to survive.  

Very small turnout...surprising.

Fantastic work by Don, once again, to get these all loaded within minutes of the writing period ending.

Surprised again no one took advantage of that, as here we are almost 12 hours later, and there are very few reads and comments.

I'm going to get on it now.  Brace yourselves.  BWOOOHAHAAAAA!!!!!

Quick thanks to Zack for the motivational speech,

however I botched this time. The concept would've had to pull me hard to let me hammer it through this time. It didn't grab me.


Pleasant comeback, Marnie. Good luck with your entry. I hope to have it on the reading list. Very interested in what you do on the page today

Hey Marnie!! Welcome back! Your scripts were missed and you too of course.


I didn’t write for this one either. But next time hopefully. Good luck to all.

Zack gave a speech? I have to look for it.

Hey, people, and Bill is back too! I’ve seen him here I swear!

Yeah,
good opportunity to shout stuff from the sideline ...

So here's the first look
Title Impression:

Not fitting genre:
The Art of War (Action/Thriller)
Three Blocks (Action/Thriller)
What Was That
Party Out of Bounds
Twins

Lacks emotion, too standard:
Can't You Hear It
Cold Blood
Sickening Desires
The Halloween After Party
For The Love of Satan
The Night He Came Back
The Vampire Affair

Well in genre:
Paralysis
Curse of Osiris (borders to an adventure feel but there's still a go)
Last Halloween

Outstanding, striking, get me the ticket:
The Magic Candy (possibly cut the 'The' was my very first look impulse)
The Frequency of Fear
End of The Harvest
Devil's Night Massacre (first impulse impression- maybe make it a subjective single term
                                  with losing the apostrophe 'Devil Night Massacre; it will read odd                          
                                  like that, yes, but imo the very positive kind of odd, the in your face odd)

Checked the loglines:

I only bought into four.

"37 years ago, the small town of Milford, Ohio was terrorized by a sadistic psychopath. Tonight, he's back."

(Intriguing 'classic horror plot' content. Reform it to one sentence.)

"A couple fight for their lives when killers target them after their Devil's Night Halloween party."

(Yeah, this 'was' No 1 on my reading list I thought. Like wtf is a devil night party. Then I just googled it and realized Devil Night is a well known term in the U.S.A. .This is a problem because in my eyes it reads very mystic, not knowing the term. Well, then maybe it's full on standard in your cultural market... anyway it's truly okay)

"A young woman is haunted by the history of her new home."
(I dare to say, I dare to say I walk with the 'I know that horror in the house classic plot' line here - you go)

"A young, anxiety-filled teen has a hard time telling his sleep paralysis demon apart from mind to reality, hours after a rambunctious Halloween party."
(just make it read smooth)

I’ve seen him too  

Nice to be involved, although feeling a tad rusty

Jeff promised me - indirectly - he’s not going to poop on my script, which is very kind  

Quoted from PrussianMosby Quick thanks to Zack for the motivational speech,

Happy to be the one to convince you to enter. Looking forward to checking out your script.

Sorry, that the context wasn't clear in my post. Unfortunately, I got no script on the list this time and it doesn't feel good. But I'll read and take part as usual :-)

Damn, that's disappointing, Dude. Oh well, there's always next October.   :)

Isn't it.

Ouch - back to reply of quoted box one.

Man, I think I like your humor. Reads pretty realistically in its style :-) -- like thumbs up-

Quoted from khamanna Hey Marnie!! Welcome back! Your scripts were missed and you too of course.

Hey Kham! It's nice to be back! In super rusty though and only had like 3 hours to write this so I'm prepared for slaughter.  

Obviously a perfect time to resurface, along with lovely Reef Dreamer, Bill.

Gold right there!!! We can make that happen!

Hi readers

Just a heads up to bear in mind Don’s super duper, five point marking system. I think he’s PM’d them out

I hadn’t seen it before - all very technical

May be worth thinking off as you read.

Gosh, you go away for a couple of years and every changes
