I'm really ashamed & sorry for my disappointing exist from the competition that some of you might waiting with some expectation. But the thing is I'm not that much good with developing new / fresh stories though sometimes some ideas pop in my mind but most of them are unoriginal & couldn't even able to satisfied me as a reader or viewer. :o

Thanks to NE & V for your kind words..believe me..that means a lot to me, definitely this will boost up my confidence level higher and I hope I can do better in future someday. :)

Roshiq - Sorry to see you go! :( You're incredibly creative, bright, and knowledgeable in terms of the Horror genre - It's been a PLEASURE to read your entries! You were a worthy adversary.



Bwind & Flayed - Kickass entries from both of you. Good GOD this competition is HOT (but so am I :p ) - GOOD LUCK TO YOU BOTH



Re: This last competition... CRAP! I already GAVE my best movie ideas!!! :p

This is a tough one... FREEDOM! HORRIBLE HORRIBLE FREEDOM!

You will be missed Roshiq. You can be proud that in spite of life getting in the way of your final round, you didn't let your quality of work dwindle. To the rest of you, make me vomit with joy. I'm serious, don't be afraid of your creativity. Great risk yields great rewards. Try it for real, too. Write the script, work on the story, do the creative calisthenics. All three of you proved you want to be creative and all three of you proved you can be. My heart and my inbox are open and my humble artistic and publishing experience are yours to borrow if you need them. To quote Lady Macbeth: "put thy courage into its sticking place and ye shall not fail. " Have fun and eviscerate each other.

In 96 hours? During a work week? :confused: :eek: LOL

Good GOD - I'll be lucky to come up with a plot outline.

I don't mean right this second. I mean eventually and in general. I'm saying I have faith in your abilities if you tried.

LOL - I am sensitive today.

Oh thank God - I read that and was like, "Well, if THAT'S the expectation then I have to bow out right now because there is no way."

In the positive light, though (to be completely honest), the last two challenges have inspired me to do just that... It's time to focus on what makes me happy - WRITING.

So that means that I AM going to be harassing you, Mr. Cook, sometime in the near future to do just that... I think that I need to make the effort to actually do what I want in life - And that's be a writer. I just need to DO it.

That's how it goes. Do the hell out of it and don't be shy. You have my email. I've been helping with submissions for ENE for the past few weeks, so believe when I say I don't mind reading a few pages a day.

Thanks for the words of encouragement Doc! I've been entering a 5 page script contest once per month for about the last year and a half, honing my craft.


Chrono & Flayed - I feel destined for third going up against the two of you, but that's cool with me since I've been the underdog in this thing since my blundered first entry and feel like I've caught a few lucky breaks just to have made it this far. Best of luck to you both in the grand finale.
