I don’t share a single word of script until the signature on the copyright certificate dries. Plus, l prefer going solo throughout the entire process. It’s how I roll.

On this Special Love Day, it just occurred to me that NONE of my screenplay’s victims are stabbed in the heart.

Looking forward to attending my very first horror film festival, the “DAYS OF THE DEAD INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL,” next week in Atlanta, where my feature script, HORROR-FEST, is nominated.

Congratulations to your daughter and the team, Tucker Teague! I saw that ad during the game. They did an incredible job on it!

Bill Brock

Didn’t watch the game, therefore cannot participate. Decided to watch “The Tele-Tubbies” marathon instead.

Tucker Teague

Bill Brock probably a much better choice

A recent pitch session earned a script request for my child-abduction feature, WHERE'S GRACE? Hopefully, this little girl may one day find her way back home and into production.

Oh, one more thing. I have an idea for a new psychological thriller feature script. Very unique. If all goes well, a good portion of it takes place inside a…… car.

Maurice Vaughan
