^^schrifty’s blog posts are gold. She also has a great one, that saved my butt in screenplay, on the difference between suspense and thriller

Group 119: Thriller / log cabin / satellite dish It seemed too simple, so I tried to take a risk and make it stand out with a twist. However, my twist might get me points deducted from not following the genre close enough

The trick with thriller is to keep it moving fast. Judges are generally ok with mashups (I’ve done actionadventure/hist fiction mashups, suspense/sci fi, etc). As long as the primary tone hits the mark you should be fine. I will look for you when we get the all clear to post!

Here's to hoping I'm blushing at the thought of other people reading it.

Always toughest the first go around. I hadn’t written creatively in 20 years when I did my first nycm in 2016. Was nervous as hell to post. But so glad I did. It literally changed my life. (Spoken like a true infomercial...) :)

Lol, it is tough. This is obviously my first year and I've never entered any contest like this. I play on a gaming site that does writing contests, but this is a whole different level. Then again, how do you grow as a writer if you don't try new things, right?

OMG, this was *so* helpful when I landed PolSat as my first ever NYCM genre for SSC last year. Thank you for writing this; it really helped!
