SimplyScripts Screenwriting Discussion Board / Questions or Comments / Don is away, should I submit any scripts or wait?
Posted by: usaking, July 21st, 2009, 7:55am
I know that Don is currently on vacation. Would it be better to turn in a script right now, even though Don is on vacation or should I wait to submit until he gets back? Does it make a difference?
I don't think this question has been answered on any of the forums, so I decided to ask myself.

Well, since submissions are closed until August 1st, I don't really see how you can submit a script.

Sniper, stop teasing him!
Usaking, seriously, just submit it, it will be fine. Go to the link, upload the script, off and racing buddy.
;)

Personally, I wouldn't submit a script for two or three weeks AFTER Don starts posting scripts. Your script could disappear in a sudden script tsunami.

I feel sorry for Don,
I mean to come back from a "hopefully nice" time off and find out that there's an ass load of scripts waiting to be posted...it's got to suck

Anymore, if your script isn't 5 to 10 pages, don't expect a lot of reads unless you really network it around and commit to reading other screenplays in return. Me, myself, I'll read a screenplay if it sounds interesting or I think I can help the writer in someway, reguardless...
So, unless you're prepaird to read a script or two or three in return I wouldn't worry about when your script was posted up. Well, unless it's a 5 or 6 page epic of course...

Now would be a good time to read scripts. And not waste time on gay Mexican zombie threads. They've been done to death.

This thread should be locked! It has nothing to do with screenwriting ;)

I think all the threads not pertaining to screenwriting should be temporarily locked. But what do I know? I'm just a 700 pound silverback gorilla.

Gorillas eat their own feces - and the feces of other gorillas too. Nice, Phil. Nice.
