Great read for anyone aspiring to the screenwriting trade.

This book is informative and entertaining. The author (himself a screenwriter) interviews screenwriters, storytellers and directors from the standpoint of technique, opportunity, successes and failures. The interviewees and their experiences are diverse and enlightening for all, not just African Americans.
