I have HAD something I could have made an original short story with that could have been about six pages in length. It was cut material from a fan fic of mine I no longer needed, but I recently just used it in a new version of my Halloween fan fic I plan to upload here in two more days when the submission is available again. I just went over the material and I'm like DAMN, I did have something to use after all. But it was better fit for my Halloween fan fic anyway.
The idea of the One Week Challenge is to write something new in the allocated time. You'd probably have got away with it if you didn't let on.
Yeah, but since I'm not gonna use it anyway, I might as well spill the beans! Hahaha. I would have done that too if I was on crunch time and had SOMETHING to tweak and work with. I DO wonder how many would actually write something new versus just using discarded and or old material from another story.
Yeah, I sent in something. I don't think it's a bad story, but by the time I submitted the draft, I was frustrated. I'm wasting a lot of time overthinking things. Struggling with my first feature, too. Need more sleep. I might have skipped this challenge, but as usual, was swayed by the short page count. For a lot of reasons, six pages and under is just too tempting. I hope for a great turn out. Nice challenge, Zack.
The strike is over, and I'm writing again, so I finally feel comfortable participating. It's all a matter of juggling everything. I was just informed yesterday (Thursday) that I needed to start putting together a Christmas list. I'll see what I can come up with (on both counts).
I wanted to avoid "scabbing" or the perception of it and thus not being allowed to join the guilds. Even SAG-AFTRA. I want to cameo in my films, and I don't want to jeopardize getting into any of the unions.

I had the feeling you were a WGA member and couldn't write anything, even if it was for something unproduced which would have been odd.
