Reviews
A book for "serous screenwriters" (pg xxi), I'd recommend a wait until the next edition comes out. This is that book that has the glaring typo in the same paragraph as the admonition to spell-check. This is a large-format paperback intended to reflect optical-accurate conventions. The Kindle version jettisons all of this including the Courier font. Skip. Skip. Skip.Riley can take notes and a lucky 3rd edition should be rushed into print. What this book does it does well. A good example of why physical books still have value AND why proof-reading still matters.
