Summary of this Book... | ||
now famous writers telling their stories on the first time they got paid for their writing. Some are funny, others are mildy humorous, and still others are hold-your-sides hilarious. All are absolutely amazing. Pick a movie or television you show you adore, and chances are good, one of those writers has his or her story within the pages of this book. | ||
I especially liked... | ||
the camaraderie I felt with these writers. Envisioning what it was like for them back when they were new to screenwriting fills me with so much hope and inspiration, I almost can't stand it! It's a wonderful rush, and the great thing is, all the stories are really well written. They're professional writers! What else could you expect? | ||
When I finished reading this Book I wanted to... | ||
Write my own success story, but opted instead to pound out a few more pages of script. | ||
This Book made me feel... | ||
as though I can do it! | ||
The author of this Book... | ||
Peter Lefcourt is a screenwriter and author of novels, and Laura J. Shapiro is a writer and producer. | ||
I recommend this Book because... | ||
this book will make you feel as though you can do it too. If these people, some of whom had extremely humble beginnings, could make it to where they are now, there's hope for the rest of us. | ||
