Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To make it as a scriptwriter, a working writer, a writer who gets paid, you need to have the right attitude and approach. This guide is going to break down practical and proactive techniques to help you get started, and show you how to maintain a career once you're up and running. It's a guide that's less about the craft of scriptwriting and more about being a working writer. There are lots of books about rare occurrences of someone "selling it big." This book is about being part of the hard-working majority, not a one-off fluke. If you picked up a book about investing your money, you'd be rightly disappointed if the advice inside was "win the lottery." There'll be no "sell a script for a million dollars on your first go" nonsense here. This book is about long-term success through graft. How do you survive as a writer? FOREWORD BY TONY JORDAN - "Tim and Danny have put together some great tips for surviving the (writing) process. "What a great book, I wish there'd been something like this around five years ago." Michelle Lipton (Hollyoaks, Rocket Island) "This is awesome. I'm so glad I have it!" Sophie Petzal (Wolfblood, Danger Mouse) "Illustrations by Emily Gilbert"

Book excerpt: THE NEW SCREENWRITER'S SURVIVAL GUIDE: No one had ever won the world's two hottest amateur screenwriting awards - The Nicholl Fellowship from the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences and the Austin Film Festival screenwriting award - in a single week. No one else had ever sold three pitches back to back over the Christmas weekend. And almost no one else had ever made her first sale as a complete unknown from outside California - and gone on to get it produced starring the then hottest young actress in Hollywood. People just don't do that. But Max Adams did. From guerrilla meeting tactics to finding (and firing) you agent, from maintaining "voice" to pitching and getting paid, the screenwriter crowned "red hot" by Variety who has been there, done that, and lived to talk about it tells you how to sell and get your screenplay made. And, more importantly, stay alive and successful for a long time afterward. "This is an accessible, smart, funny, insightful book that I would and will recommend to all scribes who come my way." Richard Walter, UCLA Screenwriting Chairman "Before you even think of marketing your script, read this book and change your screenwriting life." David Trottier, Author, The Screenwriter's Bible "If you want to understand how Hollywood works when you're the new kid on the block, this is the book to read." Greg Beal, Nicholl Fellowships in Screenwriting "Every writer should have Max Adams' advice in their arsenal."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Writing media scripts that work is a process that can be learned. Reading this book will not transform you into an accomplished media writer; that takes constant practice. Instead, The Scriptwriter's Handbook offers an approach to media writing assignments grounded in practical experience combined with study in the teaching of writing. You won't find shortcuts or tricks here_just sound advice and clear explanations of a process that has enabled William Van Nostran and others to turn out scores of successful scripts. The book is divided into two parts. Part I presents a generic writing process that can be applied to any media writing project. You'll learn how to: · Establish project goals · Collect and organize information · Develop ideas · Write a script that makes the most of audio and visuals · Incorporate feedback · Edit Part II provides more detailed material related to writing for specific assignments and media, such as: instructional drama, unscripted formats, interactive video, teleconferencing, multi-image, videowalls, and live media. Each medium's inherent advantages and challenges are described and numerous examples are included throughout the text. The final chapter on the business of scriptwriting discusses fees, maintaining "writer's wellness" and what to do about writer's block, creativity vs. risk, using computers, and other practical concerns of professional writers. While sharing the method for writing scripts that satisfy clients, The Scriptwriter's Handbook will help professionals expand and hone their writing skills. However, this book will also provide students and those new to the craft with a proven writing method applicable to any medium_including print_and examples of scripts that work. William J. Van Nostran, an award-winning writer specializing in medical, instructional, and other private television markets, is senior writer for Video Marketing Group, Inc., White Plains, NY, a firm specializing in video for new media. Mr. Van Nostran has written scripts for clients such as AT&T, Kraft General Foods, Prudential Insurance, DuPont, Bellcore, and Warner Lambert. His play, Dream Machines, received a New Jersey Council for the Arts fellowship. He teaches a graduate course in Corporate Media at Farleigh Dickinson University and frequently conducts workshops on scriptwriting and the creative process.

Book excerpt: Not too long ago I decided to write a book about my creative writing process, and the many experiences that I've had throughout my career. The inspiration behind it was pretty straightforward. I simply wanted to share what I've learned over the past 25+ years with other writers. It didn't take me long to realize however, that the book I was writing would only partially be about process. The other part would be about psychological survival. Ironically, what I learned from this little adventure was that the two things are really one in the same. Having a process that you can rely on is your lifeblood as a writer, and if you are going to have any hope of surviving in this profession, that process needs to evolve and grow with you. When you buy this book you'll get a step-by-step walk thru of the process of creating original stories, both "on spec" and "for hire," as well as helpful hands-on checklists at the end of each chapter, all framed through the first hand experiences of a writer in the trenches. Written in a conversational style, Live To Write Another Day, A Survival Guide for Screenwriters and Creative Storytellers, is both a practical, tell-it-like-it-is approach to demystifying the nuts-and-bolts mechanics of storytelling, and an inspirational, heartfelt primer on what it truly takes to do this crazy job for a living.
