    “Expert, journeyman, or the beginner, Rewrite is full of tips, techniques, and processes that will smooth and improve the way you revise your scripts. Not only do Paul’s methods help you polish to perfection your existing script, his explanations, processes, and insights will help you write your next script without the false starts, detours, and wasted time that frustrate so many scribes. Highly recommended!” — Jody Wheeler, writer and director, The Dark Place; producer, Judas Kiss “Paul reminds screenwriters across the spectrum of the key processes of storytelling that connect them with their audience, and he does it in a comforting and down-to-earth way.” — Ben Lewin, writer and director, The Sessions “I have known Paul Chitlik for more than thirty years. Paul has forgotten more about the art of writing than most people ever know. This book is a wealth of information for the writer who is going it alone, who gets no help from network or studio execs, editors or producers, and directors. Paul understands that the true art of writing is rewriting, and has fashioned an invaluable resource for anyone who truly wishes to understand what it takes to be a writer in today’s market.” — Joel Zwick, director, My Big Fat Greek Wedding, Fat Albert, and many TV episodes “Creativity is a gift we all have; it’s the writing and thus the rewriting we all have to do, getting it in a script and on the screen that will make you turn to this book for guidance.” — Quinn K.
