  • Re: Nicholl's Notification Date Looming

    I've also heard from all three today (Abbot, House of Scribes, and Energy Entertainment). Is it safe to assume that the last one is good, and therefore will probably reject me?

    I also got a request for a read from Vertigo Entertainment. Does anyone know anything about them?

      Vertigo Entertainment is big into the horror/supernatural thriller genre and both solid and reputable people in the biz from what I gather. If they wanna read it, let them is my advice.

      I too got a request from Abbot and I too shall pass.

          House of Scribes is the new name for the old Seth Lockhart (Now, randomly, Seth El) venture. He seems determined but a little ADD (considering how many new ventures/companies he's opened over the last couple years).

          I wouldn't waste my time with Abbot.

          Energy is always worth sending something to.

          Vertigo is a top-notch shop. They like breaking new writers and were one of the companies involved in my first deal. Send it.

              Add Benderspink to my request list. Officially, my number of requests from being a Nicholl Quarterfinalist status is now equal to total requests from winning at Austin. Really shows the value and status of Nicholl.

                Yeah. The biggest bummer about not making the semis was that I wasn't sure if the QFs would actually get me any reads, or if like most contests, "quarterfinalist" was another name for "loser." So far I can't complain.

                  Man, part of me really wants to reply to a request with a form letter from my legal department explaining to these agencies that I don't take unsolicited requests for representation.

                    How do you set your spam filter to trash emails with Query in the subject?

                        Funny! But unsolicited queries from Film Rites (Sony/Mandate/Zaillian), BinderSpink, and Energy are making me happy!

                          Thanks, XL, and others for the feedback. I so hope Vertigo wants to break me. I am ready and eager to be broken.

                            So, for those that got requests from the contest, are you hearing anything back, yet?

                            I know it's barely been more than a week, but this waiting stuff always feels like an eternity.

                              321 QF scripts I think. It's probably going to be a while, even if they have a full staff of readers.

                              CoC got back to me on my logline next day, FWIW...

                                I think it's too soon. I'm still getting requests. Industry Entertainment just a moment ago.
