Just got off the phone with my screenwriting partner Joel Davis, who tells me that "Last Ride of the Valkyrie" has won the Grand Prize in the Rhode Island International Film Festival's Screenplay Competition!

WOW!!!!

I don't even remember what the prize is - I'll have to look that up - but this is very exciting!!

(They misspelled my name - twice - and they mistakenly have me "resid[ing] in Los Angeles" - but that can be corrected.)

Congratulations David!!! 

Any chance of:
A.  This screenplay being made into a movie? 
and
B.  Us being able to read a small bit of it, as a preview, or something...?

Thanks!

Well, I think its chances of being produced are better now... whether that means up from "none" to "slim", I don't know.

That I'll have to look into... it's jointly copyrighted by Joel and me, so on that score there shouldn't be a problem.  Whether publishing excerpts from it will hurt its value as a movie property, I'll have to find out.  If I can, I'll post something from it either here or at my dA page, maybe both.
