    Re: Nicholl semifinal round judging now complete

    Public figures are fair game. Once you're convicted of serial murder, you kinda give up your privacy and forfeit the rights to your story. AFAIK.

      Um.... no. It's MWer who carries the torch for DD in the finals!

      I am happy to see 3 gals on the list, though! Hopefully next year there will be even more women in the finals and one of them will be me (assuming I'm still eligible )

        Can I ask what the title of your Quarterfinalist was?

          I wonder how big of a difference genre makes? In past years -- with a drama -- I only got 5 total inquiries. My current one is an thriller/action/crime.

          With all of this, though, there always is that sinking feeling that they are asking for 300 or more other scripts and so it'll be lost in the deluge anyway.


          *one "name" management co, one set of producers I've heard of but still need to investigate, and one I probably won't pursue because they're not a good fit for my script.
          Congrats, so far I have zero

            I had three requests last night. My genre is a comedy. I made SF.

                  It is a comedy, and I am a QF.

                    SF dark/thriller (I really shoulda picked drama/crime). 5 emails, so far. (one manager, 4 prodcos; 2 script requests/3 logline requests).

                        That's what she said.

                          You'll get some.

                          The one I sent it to -- I only just now finished tweaking the script -- asked for previous Nicholl QF scripts of mine, which I sent, only to never hear from them again.

                          So, let's just say I'm not holding my breath.

                          Good luck to all -- I hope you get some awesome reads ... some traction, forward momentum, an open door to submit something else, rep interest... something.

                            Thanks for the encouragement JoJo and figment, I did get 2 logline requests and 1 read request.

                            Maybe they're still reading your previous Nicholl QF scripts? The fact that you have so many has got to get someone's attention.

                            Good luck to all.

                              So now that the dust seems to have settled, I think I got 8 in total requests. SF comedy btw.

                                Awesome news MWer! Keep us updated on what happens, it'd be nice to see what the process is for you.
