Group 28* - Spy / an audition / a dishwasher

FILIPINOS NEVER EAT WITH CHOPSTICKS

A dishwasher has to help the FBI spy on an international criminal or face deportation.

*(Edited. Originally, erroneously listed as Group 26. THANK YOU heat-mate T.E.Bradford for the catching that!)

15 - Suspense/Childcare/A Truck Driver

COLDFOOT

A truck driver must cross a treacherous ice road before the coming spring makes it completely impassable, stranding him in a remote Alaskan village. His cargo, as well as his intentions, may not be what they seem.



Good luck, everybody!

Can’t wait to read this, fellow Alaskan! Hello from Kodiak! My round 1 short story competition entry, “Upstream” was set in Alaska as well! Good luck to you!

Small world, I used to live in Kodiak, too! I'm amazed that I didn't find a way to set any of the short screenplays in AK... Good luck to you, excited to read yours!

Group 12 - romance / selling a home / an electrician

A Knight Of Kernow

When a recently divorced social worker returns home for her estranged father's funeral, she isn't looking for love. But then she meets the hard-riding Vice President of the Kernow Knights Motorcycle Club -- and sparks fly...

Bloody romance.
