If You Buy the Right Book, You Can Be a Screenwriter Too!

Last night, I was reading a book that is required for my screenwriting class. I came across a quote that was so completely stupid I felt the need to share it with everyone:

"Many writers who use index cards begin by buying index cards in many different colors."

This book...it's going to be a struggle...and not for reasons of difficulty. Personally, I've decided to rename it "The Complete Idiot's Guide to Screenwriting." Sigh. At least the reading went fast and I managed to occasionally laugh at the unintentional humor of the writer. I feel bad for the author, Linda Seger.
