2017 New Book – Breaking In: Tales From The Screenwriting Trenches

“To a screenwriter trying to break in, the Hollywood system can be like a labyrinthine maze full of constantly moving walls and doors, circuitous corridors and paradoxical pitfalls that all seem designed to prevent one from reaching the inner sanctum of success. To all who enter, I say this: read Lee’s book and let it guide you! One doesn’t hunt for treasure without a map.”
