So my new screenplay is off to Scriptapalooza and PAGE.

Year Of Stone, it's called.

Read it here: http://www.byronscripts.com

Summary: "A young songwriter flees a bad marriage to join a friend's band in a small town on the Northern Californian coast. He discovers the town's big secret, and finds fame, fortune and peace of mind in the process."

I submitted to the 2008 Blue Cat contest two weeks ago. Seven more contests to go.

This is always the fun part. Getting told I didn't win is the hard part. I made the cut at the Paramount contest with World War; but lost after that. Top 400 out of 12,000 -- not bad, I suppose. I also made top 400 in the Creative Screenwriter's contest. Perhaps this one shall carry me to the big time.

The guy who won the 2005 MovieBytes contest sold his script to Sony for $650,000. Insurance salesman, first deal ever.

If I land a deal like that, DU gets a percentage. That's a promise.
