Friday night at the Scarewaves premiere with director Henrique Couto and fellow screenwriters Ira Gansler and Jeremy Biltz. It was a big, enthusiastic crowd and some lunatics actually asked me to sign autographs. I was happy with my segment and these guys did good too. Streeting everywhere in America sometime in 2015.
"Not 'Hollywood Independent' - writer John Oak Dalton is the real Real Thing." --Cinema Minima."Very weird and unpopular b-movies and comics."--Blogalicious. "After watching the film I am left to wonder if he had some childhood trauma he is not telling us about."--IMDB user review. "Screenwriter John Oak Dalton wanted to be in Hollywood. Instead, he's in the rustic kitchen above the Germania General Store, stirring a pot of boiling hot dogs." --The Harrisburg Patriot-News.

Thought He Passed His Own Shadow, By The Backstage Door
New reader George writes,
Hi, I'm 19, Irish, and trying to be a scriptwriter. know any submission points?
Hmmm, I would say work up one or two spec scripts based on what you would like to write. Then focus on nurturing relationships and sees what evolves.
It's tricky in my world (b movies) because a lot of people write their own scripts. Also a lot of people get burned so it takes a long time to build trust and relationships (probably also true in A list movies, don't know).
Work on your craft, start to meet people through the internet or visiting conferences, etc.
I hope this helps.
