“Open this book to any page right now and read one of the lessons… If you tell me you didn’t have at least a minor epiphany about how to make your script better, you’re lying.”

Carl Ellsworth, writer – Red Eye, Disturbia, Red Dawn (2010)


“This is the book I needed when I first moved out to Hollywood — a nuts and bolts approach to screenwriting and the world around it. It will take you from talking about writing a screenplay to actually doing it.”

Garrett Donovan, writer/executive producer – Community, Scrubs


“As close as you can get to taking a screenwriting class. For busy people juggling career and a home life and putting off writing a script — you have no more excuses. This is the help you’ve been waiting for!“

Andrea McCall, Head of Story, DreamWorks SKG
