Geoffrey Calhoun speaks to us about his book 'The Guide for Every Screenwriter: From Synopsis to Subplots: The Secrets of Screenwriting Revealed'. Here is the book's blurb:

"Screenwriting made simple. The Guide for Every Screenwriter is one of the most efficient instruction manuals on the craft. This book cuts past verbose exposition and gets straight to work, delivering sample-driven outlines and templates that anyone can follow. It is quick to apply to your work and serves as a side-by-side checklist for the writing process. This is the book for anyone looking to write a screenplay and for any professional needing a refresher."

In this chat, we discuss the best approaches to be a successful screenwriter and touch on a few subjects from the book itself. This is a great discussion for all writers to listen to and for people of other specialisms too, as our cinematographer host, Adam Sandy, discovers. 

Beyond that, we uncover Geoffrey's other resources and learn about his blog, podcast, and bank of famous scripts etc.

We hope you enjoy Geoffrey's advice and we also hope that you check out his website: www.thesuccessfulscreenwriter.com which is the one-stop resource for all of Geoffrey's resources including the book itself.
