Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) October 14, 2004 -- Screenplay Consultant Sheila Gallien announces the paperback release of her acclaimed screenwriting book So Your Mama Loves It, But Is It Ready for the Big Time? The 10 Most Common Mistakes Screenwriters Make (And How You Can Avoid Them). The new paperback version, with a foreword by Academy Award-nominated screenwriter, William Broyles, can be purchased through www.sheilagallien.com.
This book is simply the best resource in screenwriting you can get," says William Broyles in the foreword. Melissa Prusi, in her review from AbsoluteWrite.com, says Gallien offers sensible advice for making your screenplay more focused, more compelling, and more professional…presented in a light, conversational tone that makes it a fun, easy read." A primer for the beginner, and an advanced workbook for the expert, this book begins by warning writers of the perils of submitting their work too soon, then guides them through the process of crystallizing their stories, identifying and correcting mistakes, and developing the skills to judge when the work is ready for the marketplace.
Ms. Gallien consulted to William Broyles on Cast Away, Entrapment, Unfaithful, and Planet of the Apes and, with Mr. Broyles, developed numerous features with top actors, directors, producers and studio executives. CAAs Robert Bookman says of the author, Sheila Gallien has more experience working with successful screenplays than most successful screenwriters." Since 2000, Ms. Gallien has consulted for amateur writers as well as industry professionals. Her latest original screenplay has been optioned by producer Susan Cartsonis (What Women Want, Where the Heart Is) and Ms. Gallien is a featured consultant for Fortress Films (www.fortress-ent.com) and the Austin Film Festival.
So Your Mama Loves It, But Is It Ready for the Big Time? is available through www.sheilagallien.com, Booklocker.com, or Amazon.com.
