"For the first time in my life I was introduced to the Re-Write. Probably the most scorned and hated part of writing (by most authors, and all together feared by myself), until I realized it was part of the process of writing. A valuable lesson for me. This book is like having a Screenwriting Coach and Editor wrapped up in one. It offers excellent advice, amazing step-by-step instructions that help you ferret out your problem areas while providing you ways to write a tighter screenplay. I think it would be an excellent book for a screenwriting course and better for the person who has already written a screenplay but valuable to the novice as well. Mr. Field never digresses too far from his paradigm and continues to offer the highest level of professional advice."
