    Can anyone recommend some books about screenwriting. I already have The new scriptwriters journal , and the screenwriters problem solver.

    I'm not sure which one to buy.

    Oh, and ,by the way, what I am looking for is something that helps you conceptualise.

    Ideas are what I need.

    Thanks for any recommendations.

    Teach Yourself Screenwriting by Ray Frensham

    covers everything from generating ideas, creating and fleshing out character design, script writing, story etc etc and if you want to get into that sort of thing - selling scripts and pitching and all kinds of stuff.

    I find it useful anyway

    i just read How not to write a screenplay and i can reccomend it. Its good becos it shows bad examples of scripts and pionts out why its bad rather than teach you how to write the mythical perfect script.
