Great! Since last November, the beat sheet has become a way of life. I’ve made myself a longer version that allows me to work out my chapters at each heading. As they say on the Enterprise, “live long and prosper”. Since working with you last November, I reworked my novel. It is on schedule to be published in December, in time for the Christmas rush. #2 and #3 are “beaten out” and ready to go. Since November I’ve attended two seminars with Robert McKee. I had twenty five working copies of the beat sheet with me for notes. I handed them allow out to writers who asked me about them when we were talking in the evening at the bar. If one wants to learn how to write, he or she needs to come to LA and take seminars like Save the Cat.
