Write That Script is here!!!!!

Screenwriting is a tight and demanding medium but it is also one of the most exciting forms in which to write. 

Ever thought you wanted to write a script but weren't sure where to start? Do you have a story in you that you know would be fantastic on the screen? After working as a screenwriter and teaching screenwriting for over two decades, I have written this book to help you to turn your ideas into screenplays, moving from an examination of what you need in terms of an idea that will work on screen all the way through to first draft. 

Write That Script! brings together all the theory you need, examples of how the theory works and challenging exercises to oil those writing muscles that will see you through to the end. Write That Script! will steer you through the stormy seas from wanting to write a script to having your first one down on the page or screen.
