1. Please don't buy any "How to write a screenplay" books. I'll toss in a few links at the end of this to give more than enough to get started. 2. Software...The 2 big pay-for programs are Final Draft(FD) and Movie Magic(MM). I've had them both, and have dropped them both. If you ever sell a script, then someone will be paid to convert it into either FD or MM for Production purposes, but when you submit something, they all simply want a PDF. And for that, CELTX is about the best thing going...And it's free: https://www.celtx.com/index.html?utm_expid=19112550-03. Forums...I've been to dozens of them. IMHO, Done Deal Pro is far and away the best: http://www.donedealpro.com/default.aspx4. A good screenwriting site in general, with WAY TOO MUCH information to take in, is Two Adverbs: http://www.twoadverbs.com/5. For some fun "Insider information", it's hard to go wrong with John August. He also has a "scriptnotes" podcast, but the link seems to be down today. Highly entertaining and informative: http://johnaugust.com/Feel free to toss in other resources....Or to totally dissagree. Onward Midnite

"The standard by which I now measure the things in my life is the following: If I was on my death bed, or if I knew I had a short time to live, would this issue be important? If the answer is no.. I don't sweat it at all. If the answer is Yes, you better believe it goes to the front of the order of today's business!" -Brian Austin Whitney
