Very proud to say that this is the second of my scripts that got selected for The SIFF. Last year HG3 made it as a Finalist in this festival and now *BEEP* has been selected. I hope it goes further than this... Maybe one of my scripts will sell soon. Fingers crossed!!!
The laurels are below.
I got some potentially GREAT NEWS from Coverfly this morning! An industry pro downloaded The HG3 Series Bible!!! Hopefully, it is because they read HG3 and are curious as to what the series would look like. For those curious, I put the email in this blog so that 1) You could pray on it for me and 2) If you are interested in joining Coverfly.com you can see some of the potential good that can come of it!
Give me GOOD ENERGY people. My hopes are high!!!
Blessings,
N8
Here's the email:
Hi Nathan,
Great news! An industry professional has downloaded your project Human Game 3: The Revelation Series Bible via the Coverfly industry dashboard.
Our industry professionals have asked to remain private by default because they don't want to receive unsolicited material. That said, if they're interested in your project they will reach out to you directly. Often, our industry pros download scripts to explore possible candidates for representation, for an open writing assignment, or for potential material to option or purchase
I have always been a fan of the Esoteric and one of the most interesting shops I’ve seen has been Blu Lotus in Montclair, NJ!!! They have trinkets and a wide variety of crystals to beautifully decorate your house or for simply bringing Love and Light into your life!!!
The owner is a genius artisan and gentle soul by the name of Craig! Very 🏳️🌈 LGBTQ+ friendly staff and environment!!!
They even have a talented psychic reader by the name of Billy who works everyday as a manager and for $45 Thursday through Monday gives 15 minute readings!!!
So if you’re interested in the future of Esoteric and the unique decor take a few minutes to explore Blu Lotus Metaphysical Shop at 20 Church Street in Montclair, New Jersey. Their number is (973) 783-9866 so you can call them between the hours of 11am - 6pm eastern time!!!
Have fun exploring the strange!!!

Each issue cost $10 without shipping but I will definitely see if I can get you one for free!
Take care and I hope to hear from you soon!!!

As some of you may already know, I rewrote my script BOY with minor politically correct adjustments and called it appropriately *BEEP*.
This morning it was Officially Selected into The Bestlov Film Festival... Maybe I am onto something...
FYI - it’s a Finalist!!!
FYI - I will be putting HG3 Series Bible on Coverfly this afternoon and I will be putting the script Cimeries Counting on Coverfly this Friday or Saturday so if you want to see concepts/storylines flushed out please take a moment to check them out! Thanks for your support to all my friends and followers!!!

Go to my YouTube channel and let me know if I need to make a new demo reel!!! I think it is about time lol 😂
Below is the 2010 demo reel and a link to the YouTube page!

Just a quick update to let you know that I just finished my latest TV 📺 pilot and it’s called Cimeries Counting!!! I am letting some of my contacts read it and so far it has been getting a lot of support. Imagine Tales From The Crypt meets Mr. Roger’s Neighborhood in the heart of the city!
I will be posting it on Coverfly in about two weeks so look for it then!!!!

Cannot wait to see what they have in store for the characters and actors especially Jeffery Wright!!! Got the strange feeling that he will be mostly in his own head most of the season lol 😝
Here’s hoping that they keep the same theme music 🎶. It set such a standard for the show!
I am going to show you two different styles of audition. The b&w version was made years ago and the actor (Steve Yank) had plenty of time to rehearse. I even picked out the location even though I didn’t have microphones! It actually works!!!
The second is in color and was shot on an iPhone with the actor (E. Vincent Burrows) studying for a few hours and shooting! For his audition he was asked to answer questions about his life. Both can be found on my YouTube channel www.YouTube.com/user/Nathan099

I recently missed out on qualifying for a major competition but like I said there are some others!!! Tomorrow I believe that the New Media Film Festival is making their judgments! They have some heavy hitters as judges like Rolling Stone, HBO, and 21st Century Fox!!!!!!! I entered two of my scripts (*BEEP* and HG3) into the competition!!!
Here’s hoping 🤞 for the best!!!
N8
I didn’t get placement in the competition... there’s others that I entered!!! So my hopes are still up!!!
N8
Today is a big day!!! Several major competitions are revealing their results this week and one of them is today!!! It had an add on section which allowed entries to be optioned by Confluential Films and/or Dynamic Television! There was also an add on that allowed writers to gain representation from Rascality Entertainment... I added both of these in addition to entering the main competition for the Launch Pad Pilot Competition!!!
Below is some music for HG3 that came from the previous films! I hope I get picked because I am definitely prepared for Human Game to become a success!!!
N8
I have been getting a lot of Finalist and Semifinalist awards for this script. I hope that it gets picked up by a streaming service or production company. I even wrote a series Bible for it... I have Faith that it will be made.
N8
Here’s the pitches for HG3 and The PACT that I entered into a free pitch competition. I also gave them copy of the scripts.
Enjoy,
N8
I made some major changes to my script BOY and it can be found on Coverfly under the title *BEEP*
I did it kind of fast because of contest deadlines but I think it is an improvement!!
And the book Boy: A Story Based On True Events can still be found on Amazon
N8
Both books can be found on Amazon and other sites!!! Just Google The Zen Cookbook and Other Bizarre Screenplays or Google Boy: A Story Based On True Events by Nathan Zen-Sapien
It was a fun day!!! I think the best drink was the Moscow Mule!!! The crowd was a mix. Early on the older folks dominated but by the middle of the night a younger crowd settled in! I met Andy and a few other of his associates. E. Vincent Burrows (Ed) came with me and Brian M. Wixson (Spock) met with us at 8pm and we stayed until 10.
I have a few pictures of us in both the daytime and night at the party... Enjoy!!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR 🎊🎆🎈!!!
Well some things have changed! First, I haven’t heard from Swedish International Film Festival about the interview that we did nor when it will be published!
Next, HG3 is the script that we will be reading and recording on Saturday January the 8th! We decided to record it instead of doing it live because it would allow people to view it at their leisure. We’ve got some big names interested in seeing it and have already contacted others who may be curious 🤨 about the script and want a sneak peek.
Finally, I want to wish you all the Best of Luck and Love ❤️ in all its fashions in the new year! May your dreams come true in 2022!
Stay safe and healthy and full of ZEST!!!
N8
It came to my attention that some of the actors slated to read in the zoom meeting felt more comfortable with reading HG3 instead of The Lepidopteran. I listened to them and now I must make a decision.
With the zoom reading just a few weeks away if we change up now we will still be able to put on a good show.
If you ( the audience) have any questions or concerns please contact me on Twitter or one of my other sites or email me (nathanwaire@gmail.com). I want to do what is Best for all involved.
Thanks for your support!!!
N8
I got a few actors together and I am planning on doing a reading for The Lepidopteran for social media to get people interested in seeing this one made!!! I have not figured out what platform to use but hopefully it will get a great response! Mid January seems to be when it comes together!!!
See you online and I will keep you posted!!!
N8
I am going to find out if it advances on January 7th!!! Fingers crossed!!!
N8
Yeah I forgot to mention that this year had some Love ❤️ of a different kind!!! Earlier in the year Spike Lee liked some of my comments on his FB page and around his Summer celebration awarded me with the Top Fan Badge!!! So Cool!!! Tia Carrere did the same thing last week!!!! So Fricken Cool!!! Rock on!!!
Cheers to even more connections in the future!!!
N8
These two made me happy this Summer
Have fun and Happy Holidays!!!
N8
First of all HAPPY HOLIDAYS everyone!!! This year had some Great moments in it like winning so many awards and placing into so many competitions with my script Human Game 3. If I could afford to enter more I would!! But alas the year is coming to an end and new ideas and projects are afoot!
So here’s a sneak peek of next year. I have already started writing two scripts and a book! I plan to complete them by early to mid 2022! Also, I entered a few competitions and film funding contests to see if they can help me make HG3... that’s if it doesn’t get picked up by some other filmmaking company!!! It is a Great concept for a series and should be made... God willing!!!
I should be chiming in with you around the Christmas Eve with a link to my interview with The SIFF! So until then I am wishing you all Peace, Love and Safety this holiday season!!
Keep your cuffs clean when wearing your heart ❤️ on your sleeve.
Take care
N8
