    Very good list. I would also recommend Lew Hunter's Screenwriting 434.

    Thanks for the tip on Gladwin. I will definitely check him out. I would also recommend Nick Iandolo's book called "Cut The Crap and Write That Damn Screenplay." It's no-nonsense and gets you writing a screenplay in no time at all. I wrote my first one--89 pages first draft--in 2 weeks! I can assure you it's worth every penny.

    Good info and recommendations here.
    I have read and used several screenwriting books here (mainly Seger, Trottier, and Writing the picture), which are all good books. I never really got my groove on though and I kinda let this hobby of mine slip in the past year because I was just spinning my heels. Basically, I thought I was an idiot because I found them all very lacking in practical "how to" information.
    So, I am very glad to know I am not alone and perhaps not as lame as I thought.
    I am getting back in the game, and it looks like I will try some Gladwin.
    Thanks.

One of the best screenwriting books for point by point scriptwriting is Philip Gladwins Screenwriting Goldmine. It just plain works.
