It's with great honor and a lot of shock that I can tell you all that ”LEGACY” WON Best Feature Screenplay at The Great American Script Contest. This contest is attached to one of the Top 50 Film Festivals on the planet! Yes, I am aware of the fact that they misspelled my last name!
Congratulations!
Thank you!!

Thank you all! Being able to share this with you and having you be happy for me, is so awesome! So many people like to tear down others if they begin to succeed. One person actually said to me on another site, ”I genuinely hope you don't win an award.” Can you believe that? Who says that? We are a community, and when one of us succeeds, we all do! Without Stage 32 and its community, I would never have been able to do this. So, to all of you, I wanted to say, ”Thank you for everything, including being happy for me!”

Thanks, Guys! Ya, they have the correct spelling now for future publicity for my prizes. My work is going to a manager @ an elite management company, go to ScriptCon and go to next year's festival as the winner! Seriously, this is an incredible contest!

Thank you for the support everyone. I am so thankful that this community exists. I feel like realists have a hard time understanding dreamers. It's nice to be among like-minded people who understand the blood, sweat, and tears that goes into writing a screenplay. To all the screenwriters I wanted to say that you must remember that without a script, a movie cannot be made. For those in the WGA, I may not be a member yet, but I stand with you!

Congrats! How many scripts got entered this year...would you happen to know?
1 person likes this
As far as how many scripts got entered, I have no idea. All I know is the reputation of the Top 50 Film Festival that is attached to it, and they're incredible and real prizes! Many competitions promise things they never deliver. I know from experience, but not this contest.

A short synopsis for the first installment in my saga ”Legacy” would be: When a bullied teenager seeks refuge by an Irish castle, he travels to a magical world he never knew existed where his long-lost father turns out to be king. But the king has been kidnapped by an unknown assailant, and now the responsibility to rescue him falls to his clueless son. Most people say it's ”Narnia” meets ”Harry Potter” with a bit of ”The Hobbit” thrown in.

I may be new around here, but I'd venture a guess that racking up a couple dozen awards is a pretty big deal in this insanely competitive industry. Aside from being shocked, I hope your proud too! That's a big accomplishment!

Wow! Congrats! One day, no one will mess with your name. ;-) [opening credits] [fade in] Robert Downey Jr. [fade out/in] Jennifer Lawrence. [fade out/in] Screenplay by Danielle R Erlich. [fade out/in] Legacy
Richard Wilkins, thank you for saying that. I am definitely proud! I never thought people would connect with my characters so much. F.J. Hubert that would be a dream come true!! Hopefully, my next script is at least half as successful! Thank you both for the kind words!

The first two installment’s and most recent drafts of my saga should be available on my Stage 32 profile. Yes, my fingers are crossed that everything continues on this trajectory. I have it in the hands of two studios, and very soon, the streamers will have it as well. I have a star attached to Legacy II who stars on The Expanse and I am working w the art director behind Watchmen and his partner who's a special effects pro. He worked on Star Wars and Narnia. I met them at The Austin Film Festival, and was had my saga chosen as the only story from there..
Hey did you go to the Austin film festival last year? I’m wondering if I bumped into you because I tried to meet as many people as possible. Most people would remember me as the pig guy because I pitched a story about a talking pig that everyone loved lol

There's interest starting to show-especially after I posted on LINKEDIN that I won a scholarship for a fellowship with Oscar winners. We will be in a castle in the South of France
