I know things. I know things not because I’m brilliant, I know things because I’ve been in the screenwriting business for a long time now. For twenty years I’ve been hired, again and again. I have written feature-length films, worked on series, crafted adaptations. I’ve gone through the various hells and back and through it all I’ve taken the time to learn … and to live.
I’ve been paid and I’ve been shafted. I’ve jubilated when I saw my name on film the first time and I’ve torn my hair out when it all went horribly wrong. I’ve schmoozed and I’ve battled and always, always, I’ve loved living in this crazy world of make-believe. That, that right there, is the key to everything. The world of screenwriting is a mad one, one that’ll often feel disheartening, unjust and devoid of the very passion we keep pouring into every single word. But it’s film, it’s the movies, it’s the world of dreams, the world of fear and laughter and we love it … don’t we?
I've put my experiences to paper - but this isn't another how-to book. "Write, Write, Write: Not necessarily in that order" is an honest account of what we can expect as a professional writers. What we can expect, if we’re lucky and prepared, is a world that’ll pay us to do what we love doing. What we cannot expect is winning the lottery. Hollywood dreams do come true all the time – but if we count on them, they’ll make us miserable. 
I've loved writing this book - it really is a book about life, living the life of a screenwriter, being happy and staying sane in the mad, mad world of making films. If you're thinking about a life in screenwriting, you might want to take a look ... and if you're an old hand and have forgotten what it's all about, then hopefully this book will bring it all back to you. Write, write, write !
