I love writing books, deeply deeply with a visceral sort of humm, but when I get my teeth into a script, it’s a buzz of a different kind. Far from what agents told me in my early days, most writers do like to cross mediums and genres and I think it's good for us. Writing muscles like diversity and each medium feeds something into the other.
Write That Script exists because of all the writing students I’ve had the past 20 odd years; an awful lot of very good writers. Some were experimenting with screenwriting, some had dreamt of screenwriting or were pursuing a goal they hadn’t had time to explore before, others were trying the different medium because they were curious while yet more were film buffs who could put me to shame or wanted to do the whole hog from writing to acting to directing.This book is dedicated to all of them.So if you know any writers who might like to try screenwriting as a Christmas present...
