Chapter 6 ...Chapter 9

During my career as a writer/producer, I read thousands of scripts by established and developing writers. Some of them succeeded in going into production, but--

90% or more of the ones that were not produced had no chance to begin with.

Why?
Because they suffered from flaws in their stories.

Imagine how you'd feel as a writer if youcould avoid that trap. Think of how your confidence would soar!
