Maurice, thanks for posting the link to this article. What I found most useful was the part about limiting the number of readers who provide feedback on your script in order to reduce the chances of receiving contradictory notes.

As far as my own advice on rewriting, I doubt I could offer up any insightful nuggets of wisdom that haven't already been espoused over the years.

Sabrina Miller Don't discount your own experiences! And remember this community is made up of all types of writers, what may seem basic or trivial can be new building blocks for others. Besides that, for me, it never hurts to be reminded of core tenants especially when I'm stuck.

Sam Sokolow

You're welcome, Sabrina Miller. Niki H is 100% right. I'm sure you have things and writing tips to share that I (and others) don't, Sabrina. :)

Sam Sokolow James Heather had this question on a post: "so I'm the person that the true story is all about. An excellent screenplay has been written about me and I have the IP rights. What would anyone suggest is the next best thing to do?" (https://www.stage32.com/lounge/introduce_yourself/James-Heather)

Do you know any webinars or classes that could help him?
