Two new submissions and one potentially great opportunity

So... In no particular order, I will be submitting Personal Demons to the Blood List's Fresh Blood Screenwriting Initiative (which opens May 1st).

And, to sandwich this in here, apparently 92% of Hollywood screenwriters who signed the WGA petition have fired their agents... Seems like a good time to start querying.
 

Then, before their April 30th deadline, I will be submitting (for the second summer in a row) to the Screencraft Horror Screenplay competition.


This year the judges are:

Ryan Turek

VP of Development at Blumhouse Productions (company credits include PARANORMAL ACTIVITY, INSIDIOUS, SINISTER, OCULUS, THE PURGE, OUIJA, THE GREEN INFERNO, Academy-award nominee WHIPLASH and UNFRIENDED).

Pip Ngo

Director of Sales and Acquisitions at XYZ Films (company credits include MANDY, THE STANDOFF AT SPARROW CREEK, APOSTLE, and IN DARKNESS.

Brittany Klesick

Creative Executive at Monkey Paw Productions, Jordan Peele’s production company behind such iconic horror titles as GET OUT and US.

Juan He

Manager at Good Fear, a management production company whose clients’ credits include IT FOLLOWS, CLOVERFIELD, DONNIE DARKO and THE BUTTERFLY EFFECT

Ari Aster & Lars Knudsen

Writer-Director Ari Aster and Producer Lars Knudsen are the filmmaking team behind such acclaimed recent horror films as as HEREDITARY and the upcoming MIDSOMMAR!
