Yup. Absolutely true for me, too. 😩

Maybe it wasn’t ICE. Maybe it was Bounty Hunters letting everyone assume they’re ICE so they can get away with kidnapping.
comment in response to post
I bet majority of them are Bounty Hunters. Not legit fed law enforcement. We need some lawyers to speak up about how we push back because if a masked thug comes at me, I’m assuming he’s going to kidnap me and will respond accordingly.

I dunno. Quick access to my coffee combo of choice that I don’t have to make myself has a certain draw… and I have a headset to drown out noise. 😂
comment in response to post
I would bet money that many of these aren’t legit ice agents and are instead Bounty Hunters.

If I knew someone I did a script swap with took the lazy way out to provide feedback on one of my scripts, their name would be all over the internet as BEWARE. Just about all of us have day jobs. Put it in the damn work. JFC.

I love this script so much! ❤️

I work in this town. Just not as a writer. 😂

Does a deliberate misdirect count? 😂

It’s worth it for the four free contest entries and access to all the gigs.

A few people I know have received that email. They deleted it.

There’s a reason Starlink satellites were being destroyed after the win…

Same.
comment in response to post
I’m constantly asked by a specific reader who questions whether I’ve done my research. The response is just yes and I move on. Because it’s true. I do. If I get the same feedback from more than one person, I always re-evaluate how I’m conveying it. Writers gotta know how to take feedback.

I added three much needed pages last night to my self-contained thriller. Have another half a page to add after work.

I thought those kinds of houses only existing IN movies…😂 Well- and castles whose rulers were scared of being overthrown and needed multiple escape routes… 😂
comment in response to post
I was wondering how it got categorized as horror! 😂 I imagine that ride at the end could be considered horrific…I thought it was exhilarating! 😂
comment in response to post
Horror?! You?! 😂 Congrats on the placement. I had a contained Thriller place as well. 💪🏻
comment in response to post
This was such a great script! Congrats on the placement!

Except it’ll be a pdf on a thumb drive because - no one knows where to buy brads anymore. 😂😉

It’s $65 with the US Copyright office. But you can register up to 10 scripts for that amount. Don’t bother with the WGA, it’s only good for 5 years. If you need money to register something, message me.

I was surprisingly sucked in by how good this show was!

You learn more and more with every one. You’ve taken your first step into a large, intimidating world. Congrats!

I suppose it’s better than getting five emails about the same gig that’s been up for months…😂
comment in response to post
I keep seeing these emails but then I go to Gigs and don’t see them in the list. I wonder if they’re promoting older listings?

I love this script so much.

It’s FFS😉😂
comment in response to post
Yes. That’s how I do it.

You could tighten it down to ‘A’… 😉

Feature.
comment in response to post
Oddly, I don’t get writers block because I’m always writing from an outline. But I do write myself into corners (usually when the character veers from the outline and Fs everything that comes after it) and I have to go on long walks or drives to work it out. 😂 Dealing with that this weekend. 😂
comment in response to post
Yup. Happens to me often and it’s annoying. Because I can’t do anything else until I get it on the page. 😂 But on the flip side, it’s amazing when those writing juices are just FLOWING!

@whartonrigby.bsky.social has a fantastic project he’s working on called Polaris.
comment in response to post
I’ve done a lot of writing. 😂 Concentrating on a few self-contained features right now which will have a better chance of being optioned and made.
comment in response to post
Egypt Ireland Japan England Arizona Florida Pennsylvania Random Pacific island Texas Colorado Space New York San Francisco Washington Kentucky North Dakota Off the top of my head. I’m sure there’s more…😂
comment in response to post
The Flow script was 36 pages and made as a feature. My animated script is 41 pages and, when animated, would be feature length.

Never heard of it.

Research the contests heavily. Many are not worth that pay to play fee.
