Down to Two

M.

K. and I are writing furiously. We're narrowed our screenplays down to the one's we think have the most solid, thought out story and dialogue. You can see the titles and our progress on them to your right. K's script is "The Bullpen", and mine is "The Orphan Queen".

We're getting ready for May, with pencils up and fingers crossed.

Bruce Geller Screenwriting Competion

K here.

Heads up! A new screenplay competition has opened up. The First Annual Bruce Geller Screenplay Competition:

"To increase the richness of contemporary Jewish culture through the creation of screenplays and films that reflect aspects of Jewish life in the United States or elsewhere.

Submit a screenplay that relates to, touches upon, explores or includes some aspect of Jewish life. This could be a location, a Jewish character, a Jewish theme, or anything relevant to the Jewish experience. This competition is open to writers of all religious and ethnic backgrounds. Entries accepted from June 4 to July 31, 2007. See the contest rules to learn how to enter.

One first prize winner and two runners-up will be selected. First prize is $25,000. The two runners-up each receive $5,000.

Winners will be announced at our gala dinner."
