The Business of Screenwriting

Free downloadable Go Into The Story eBook by Scott Myers.

Why am I smiling? Because today I’m making available to the public the 12th in a series of twelve eBooks featuring some of my 23,000+ Go Into The Story posts. And it’s free! Just click on the link below to download the eBook titled: “The Business of Screenwriting”. It is 245 pages long — you read that right…245 PAGES!… and feature 95 articles from my popular GITS series.

The idea is that having the content available as an eBook will be another useful way for writers to digest ideas and information from the blog.

Think of it as a kind Go Into The Story Greatest Hits collection.

Each is free. Download them. Read them. Pass them along.

With that, we cap off an initiative which began in January of this year!

A very special thanks to Trish Curtin and Clay Mitchell who stepped up to handle the process of turning blog posts into eBooks. I could not have done this without the incredible efforts of these two fine people.

Do me a favor: If you’ve downloaded any of the eBooks, please click on RESPONSE below and let Clay and Trish know you appreciate their efforts.

A final note excerpted from the eBook’s preface:

The collection contains my reflections and takes on basic tenets of the craft. If any of them resonate with you, great. If not, feel free to ignore them. Each writer needs to figure out their own approach to screenwriting. My hope is to help feed that process and provide writers with inspiration along the way.
