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 screenplay writing and more about being a working script 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.
