creative-screenwritingCreative Screenwriting exists to help you compete in this tough but lucrative business. Do you know which genres are hot? Which ones are warming up? Which agencies and managers are accepting new clients? What scripts individual producers are looking for, and how you can submit to them? Creative Screenwriting answers these questions for you in every issue, keeping you up to date with what’s going on — who’s buying, and what types of scripts are selling.

Exclusive interviews give you the inside story from Hollywood’s top writers. Creative Screenwriting puts you into the room with Michael Goldenberg (Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix), takes you to New York to talk with William Goldman (Adventures in the Screen Trade) about working in Hollywood from afar, and gets inside the mind of Quentin Tarantino on Grindhouse– interviews you won’t find anywhere else. Recent issues have carried interviews with Tim Kring (Crossing Jordan), Brad Bird on Ratatouille, Judd Apatow (40-Year-Old Virgin and his new Knocked Up). In back issues, you can read about what Richard LaGravenese (The Fisher King), Neil LaBute (In the Company of Men), Anthony Minghella (Cold Mountain), Scott Frank (Get Shorty) and many others have to say.

Each issue includes inside advice, including:
The Business of Screenwriting: how the business really works, from veteran Ron Suppa; Agent’s Hot Sheet: interviews with a panel of screenwriters’ agents on the current market; Our Craft: an in-depth focus on the details of how to write, from writer-teacher Karl Iglesias; Writer Beware: what you really need to protect yourself from, and how– and what you should worry about less than some writers do.

The time is right – the price is even better. Creative Screenwriting is a small investment in your career that could pay huge dividends.
