About the Book:

The 100 Principles of Screenwriting Every Budding Writer Must Know....

Screenwriting for Teens by Christina Hamlett gives teens — who go to movies more than any age group in the world — the tools to do more than just watch those movies; it gives them the tools to write their own films.

Targeted to the interests and vocabularies of junior high and high school students, each chapter of Screenwriting for Teens defines a concept, illustrates it with examples of current and/or classic films and challenges its readers with creative writing, analytical and discussion exercises.

What people say:

"For any writer looking for a different approach, this book offers dozens of possibilities; true and tested principles which millions of writers in the past have employed unconsciously, myself included." — John Collee, Screenwriter:

"Screenwriting for Teens is not just for teens; anyone interested in learning more about screenwriting will find this helpful, whether you're fifteen or fifty. It's format makes it easy to read, while relevant examples and helpful resources aid in comprehension, and will make this book one you can continue to use long after the initial reading." — Kari Ann Morgan, Microfilmmaker Magazine
