There's always someone who is competing in one of the many screenwriting contests out there.  Some of those someones even do quite well.  This thread is a good place to record those well-doers and give them some kudos (which they richly deserve).  

So, in other words, if you're doing well in a contest - record it here.  That will help all of us get to know you better and congratulate you while we're at it.

So the first one I record is Ryan who is one of the semi-finalists in the running for the  Kairos Prize

I may not know you yet Ryan but I would like to be the first to offer my congratulations. Well done!

If you win, you wouldn't mind sharing some of those winnings by any chance?

Thanks everyone, I appreciate it.  I'll know if I advance to the finals in a couple of weeks.  Just to clarify, the version I have posted on here is an earlier version and not the one I submitted to Kairos.

Best of luck, Ryan.

Hope to see those contest revisions some day.
I thought that script could really fly with some tweaks.

If you get to the Finals, Naja's is on me.

Regards,
E.D.
