Book Reviews of The Bare Bones Book of Screenwriting

Book Review: Teaches you to build a career, not win the lottery
Summary: 5 Stars

The bare Bones Book of Screenwriting is the perfect starting point. It's written in a friendly, knowledgable and razor-sharp witty voice. I liked how it has 3 simple chapters, story, format and business. I felt like i got some real insight into the reality of screenwriting for beginners. The author doesn't tell you how to write a script and sell it for a million dollars. Instead he teaches you how to start thinking of screenwriting step by step... by building essential story skills, technical conventions, starting small by building credits, contacts and gaining ground in the industry. Every other book I've read wants you to believe you can win the lottery.
