MM’s Trilogy of Screenplays
Hey guys,
Last year, I put together a trilogy of screenplays, which is available to read under my profile on TriggerStreet. (You have to register with the site to download the scripts, but it’s free.)
We thought we’d try an experiment, a la Paris, Je Taime. We’d get about 20 writers together, take a topic (like love), and give each writer only six pages to write anything they’d like to write about love. Then I’d compile them together into one screenplay and upload it onto TriggerStreet to share. We first did a script on Love, which was extremely popular. So we followed that up with a script on Hate, and last December, we uploaded our third and final script on Fear.
I gave the writers only one week to turn in their six pages. It’s amazing what stories they came up with. I love it! And yes, you will find a short in each screenplay written by me. The other writers are some of the best on TriggerStreet. Of the three, Love is probably the most popular and periodically frequents the site’s Top Ten list, although Hate is highly ranked in the 100’s. Fear has some quality work inside from great writers who were hand-picked by me.
Anyway, check it out. Loads of fun!

Hey MM,
I never told you, my short "The Anniversary" in "Love" got picked up by a production company in London and is being made this Summer!
Great project. Cheers,

Deaf - Fine! Send me a pic of YOU in a shirt like that and I'll use it in my next post!
Dom - Really? No, I hadn't heard that. Congratulations, man! That's great! Let me when when/how I can see it. I've heard rumors about about couple others. I believe someone was filming (or going to film) Vivi's short, but I haven't heard anymore about that.

Mey Mister M,
Really enjoyed working on all 3 of your Triggerstreet projects and I'm grateful that you gave me a taste for writing short scripts.
I've also got a prod co interested in my Fear short - although I will probably write them something original (if just to avoid having to pay you your 10%!)
Write on MM.
Thanks for posting this, MM. I had a great time working on LOVE and FEAR.
Reading the first one, halfway through. I like a lot of them!
Hey,
will let you know and post a link on TS. Will be interesting to see how close "The Anniversary" is to my pages... They're casting for an "old fella" now...
Note the reads of 'Love' have bumped somewhat recently...
Dom.
