I think Jeff might have written TWINS but only because it's one of a couple I think he kinda liked.

This is only the second challenge I've done and the second short I've ever wrote so I don't know anyone's voice enough to recognise it. But I'm guessing some regulars wrote Vampire Affair and Cold Blood because they were above average.

Shit. Help me out, folks. Don't we have until midnight tonight to vote? If not, I blew it. I haven't had a chance to read since last Saturday. I swear I'm finishing up and voting after work!

BTW - Twins has got to be Jeff's entry. It takes place in AZ and is set in a casita, not a suburban house!

Yo Libby,

saw your shout-out of guessing me being the puppet master of Cold Blood.
Can't confirm that - me not "in" this time. And I tend to begin to like that fact since the week flew by and it's already voting time. And wow do some of the writers here review with pace.

Then, I of course try to read Cold Blood soon to analyze your weird thinking about me or my weird lack of self-reflection  . We'll see on which side the coin eventually drops. Probably it's number C, a true masterpiece...

Do I look like a politician?  
No...if I wrote it I'd have the character turn into that sugar candy found in Pixie Stix.
Or homage Halloween III Season Of The Witch at least.

I wondered if Jeff wrote Twins, but I don't think he would flub the use of CONTINUOUS, and if he wrote incomplete slugs like that he'd probably swear off writing.

In the "scripts of the OWC" thread, the opening post has 19 scripts...

... I think Darren wrote one of those

Guilty as charged.

I did once include a double line wrylie.

I've written 2 OWC scripts in WORD - I swear.

I once intro'd a character as follows, and I have to say, it's some of my very best writing to date...

We see ALROY (almost 25 and a half) walking towards the bar. He has thick red hair that resembles a fiery lion's mane. He is wearing a skin tight T-Shirt with Simon Cowell's face on it that is at least two sizes too small.  A fag hanging from the corner of his mouth sends smoke wisps into the already very smoky air.  You could probably even cut it with a knife it's so smoky.

Here's an even better one - 8 lines.

"The BOUNCER, who is sat on a chair, is about 40 years old. He looks like a combination of Richard Gere, Harry Hamlin, and Richard Grieco, but with worse hair, and not as rich or popular (even though Richard Grieco isn't very popular anyway).  He is wearing an old plaid shirt and Guess jeans with a fairly new looking belt.  He also has a shiny necklace on that hangs down to his big, old beer gut.  Some sweat or grease or some substance is dripping down his chin."

What do you think of that work of art?
