You got one, didn’t you?
An amazing idea for a movie.
It could rival the gems (and certainly eclipse the garbage) made by Hollywood.
However, there’s a problem.
You’ve never written a screenplay before.
And you have no clue what to do and where to start.
Or, in an alternate scenario, you already know how to write a screenplay. But whenever you try to do it, it feels like wading through molasses.
And you’re tired of that.
Tired of wanting to write…but not actually writing.
Are you nodding your head in recognition?
Yeah, me too…because I know what that’s like. I’ve spent a lot of time in that land.
Until I got my ticket out.
Some years ago, I used to avoid writing as much as I could (even though I really wanted to write).
Thankfully, things changed for me when I finally realized what my big problem was.
And then I went from not writing…to finishing a screenplay in 3 weeks.
Even better, on the whole, my draft matched the vision I had held in my head. It came out the way I hoped it would.
You can have a similar experience, too—if you understand one simple little thing…
Avoid this HUGE mistake when writing your movie script
You’re probably going into writing your screenplay with the intent to sell it.
But if you do that, you’re putting yourself under enormous pressure.
You’ll freeze up.
You won’t get very much written (which, ironically, means you’ll have nothing to sell).
Instead, write your screenplay with the intent to finish it.
With this new attitude, everything will change. You won’t just be dreaming about writing a screenplay. You will:
Get. It. Done.
Imagine what it would be like to write your screenplay—without freezing up…
Imagine sitting down to write and instead of—
- slowing to a crawl
- giving up in the middle
—you end your writing sessions with a big smile because of all the pages you got written.
You’ll be pleased with the progress you made instead of berating yourself for not writing.
Whether you’re looking to write your first screenplay (ever) or write your first screenplay draft (more easily)…
…that’s what your screenwriting experience can be like with the practical tips in How to Write a Screenplay Now.

Why this “how to write a screenplay” guide is different than other screenwriting books
Because of this book’s “finish first” philosophy, you’re not going to engage in extensive prep work the way you would with other screenplay writing books.
Rather, you’ll engage in minimum viable preparation—the least required to write a screenplay draft so that you’ll actually get it done…
…instead of getting stuck in procrastination mode.
Plus, most other screenwriting books treat writing a screenplay like you’re doing it in a vacuum. They skip or gloss over how to integrate screenwriting into your life—how to put your dream into action.
This book doesn’t do that. It looks at screenplay writing within the context of the hurdles you’ll face, ones that—
- come from your own mind
- arise as a byproduct of your busy schedule
—and shows you how to overcome them.
