Re: Nick Writing Fellowship
They announced the semifinalists yesterday on the Nick Writing Facebook page. Did any DDers make the list?

Good luck to any DDers who entered!
Maybe they'll follow the same timeline as prior years and notify entrants come late August. Still doesn't explain the "almost finished reading" line, though.

Originally posted by JoeBanks View PostAlthough on a show, there are many weeks of breaking story in the room, going to outline, and revising the outline according to various parties' notes before actually going to script so it's not quite the same as just writing a script start to finish in 7 or 8 days

Re: Nick Writing Fellowship
Thanks, guys! I think the phone interview went well, but they say it all comes down to the second spec. I think my second spec is good, not great, but hopefully that's the case with everyone else in the running.
The interview was stressful but at least now that it's over, I can kick back, relax, and prepare for 11 more interviews. Assuming I advance.

I just read the interview you did with Karen. Very enlightening. I see that you say they don't accept original sitcom scripts as a second spec. Is that still the case? I do have another existing show spec but it's ANOTHER "Always Sunny." Same show I won with. You think she'd accept that for the follow-up script? I worried that doesn't show much range.
My friend wants me to whip up a new spec in the next week but that seems kinda crazy. I can't write that fast. Not well, anyway.

Re: Nick Writing Fellowship
Thanks, guys!
I always envied the people I've seen get congratulations messages on this board over the years. It's so cool to finally be on the receiving end! Honestly, it didnt feel quite real until right now.
Now it's just the simple matter of charming a woman on the phone. That's what I do best... right? Right? *dabs sweat, loosens tie*Last edited by gridlock'd; 08-27-2013, 04:48 PM.
