For those of you who enjoy writing exercises Tarcher/Penguin has just published Now Write! Screenwriting Screenwriting Exercises from Today's Best Writers and Teachers

Contributors include the writers of: Raging Bull, Lost, True Blood, Groundhog Day, Ali, Reversal of Fortune, Chicken run and dozens of other screenwriters, producers, story analysts, educators, etc. The exercises cover every aspect of the screenwriting process from finding your story to rewriting. Each writer also provides a short essay about their exercise.

This is the third title in the Now Write series, the others were Now Write! Fiction and Now Write! Non Fiction




(full disclosure: I'm one of the contributors, as is Bill Martell)

Saw this in a bookstore on Saturday. Probably would have picked it up if I'd known you guys were contributors.

Next time.

I have not read it, yet - but it's full of name writers and bozos like me with articles that explain some aspect of screenwriting and then an assignment. A cool idea for a book - wish I had thought of it!
