Don’t let the member “color” fool you, I’m still new here and don’t know folks’ writing well enough to recognize them. By the same token, I don’t expect anyone to recognize mine (without being in my bracket).

I'm sorry for not being on much today.  I have several email to respond to as well.

John, it was very hard because comedy and bombs don't generally mix.  I thought yours was well done.

Hey, I have to thank people like Bill, Mark, Anthony, Jeff, Dustin,Pia, Janet, Khamanna, and really a bunch more that I can't think of at this moment.  It was you all that hit me hard with the truth and pushed me to be better and go out of my comfort zone.

If I ever sell anything it's because of all of you.  This site is wonderful and thanks to Don for doing all this.

To the new writers know this.  If your script didn't do well, it's OK.  My first story was awful.  You can't change the past, but you can learn from it and craft better ideas in the future.  Don't give up because your script didn't go over very well.  Feedback makes us better.  So shake off the dust from being on the mat for the count, get up, and write.  Show everyone why writing something original that is good is the hardest thing to do.

Dan


Please read my scripts:
http://www.simplyscripts.net/cgi-bin/Blah/Blah.pl?b-series/m-1427564706/

I'm interested in reading animation, horror, sci fy, suspense, fantasy, and anything that is good.  I enjoy writing the same.  Looking to team with anyone!

Thanks
Dan

Hmm, looking at how my script has fared I don't belong in the second round at all. And good writers had tho go, very good writers.
1952 Drummer Street (think it's Stevie's) - great work
Breakfast in The Air (John?) - memorable and funny
Blind Fate
Prescheduled
Crisis in The Red Room (Darren?)
Lazy Eye
Light
In some cases I voted for the opponent but the scripts I listed are very good, some rxcellent imo.

I thought Saddie was yours, Alex.

I can't be Red Scare, can it? But you're with Stevie and Light can't be his

Maybe, maybe not. No, I can say that he proceeds and I understand the reasons, which makes it deserved. Although, I was okay with my own performance. I did what I do. Now about you… hope I didn't trashed it but I have no clue honestly or haven't spend the energy yet to really think about styles I know. I found it actually hard to keep the overview this time. In the reviewing process as well. I always make word.doc since I need spell check and can organize things but this time I was scrolling up and down...

@Stevie Congrats, man.
