The Bitter Script Reader shoots from the hip, always telling writers what they need to hear, not necessarily what they want to hear. With Mr. Bitter's permission, in the coming weeks, Script will post his videos on screenwriting to help you write a script even he'd want to read... but don't send them to him, because he still won't read them. No unsolicited scripts allowed. Just sayin'.

The Bitter Script Reader gets you started in the screenwriting process by explaining the difference between idea, concept and story, in the first of a 12-part series designed to aid you in writing a screenplay.
