Book Reviews of The Bare Bones Book of Screenwriting
Book Review: Bare Bones Recommended
Summary: 5 Stars
The few dollars to buy this book is definitely worth it. It's an incredibly valuable tool which I reference from time to time being heavily involved in my own business that focuses on development.
I've read various books on screenwriting at film school, but in my opinion, no other book does a better job at simplifying the process and actually inspiring you to start writing your script. I've always been confused at where you start and this book helped me get going in that perspective.
It's really the simplest explanation I've ever read that helped me understand plot, format, and the reality of marketing my screenplay. It's a quick read and actually takes the confusion away.
