Good on you Libby! I loved that script (and actually guessed correctly that it was yours!) and can see that one easily being filmed.
Great job to all the others who placed as well!
Some of my scripts:
Bounty (TV Pilot) -- Top 1% of discoverable screenplays on Coverfly I'll Be Seeing You (short) - OWC winner The Gambler (short) - OWC winner Skip (short) - filmed Country Road 12 (short) - filmed The Family Man (short) - filmed The Journeyers (feature) - optioned
Nice work, Libby! Loved it. I'm very disappointed that I didn't participate in this OWC (excellent parameters, Zack) but, just as well, the short I had in mind wouldn't have been much competition.
This could be easily filmed on the cheap since hoarder houses are a dime a dozen these days.

Wow, this was so nice to wake up to, I honestly did not expect it. Thanks, guys and gals!
Congrats to Abe and Chris, terrific entries! Shout out too to Steve Sallee for 666 - loved the Devil finding his happy place.
P.S. Was watching Hoarders the night before the deadline - an episode where sisters were horrified to discover their brother's cross-dressing outfits and x-rated porn collection in the attic. They were outraged.

Haha. I was just amazed that they weren't mortified about the literal rats and filth in the kitchen, but were instead crying hysterically about the discovery of his 'personal interests'.
