Attention Screenwriters!: Stop wasting years of time, energy, and money on random, unproven, and inferior ways to learn how to build a successful screenwriting career in Hollywood.

If You’ve Ever Wanted to Master the Craft of Writing the Next Seven-Figure Screenplay , and You’ve Followed Everything the Books and Gurus Have Taught, With Less Than Stellar Results, This May Be the Most Important Letter You Ever Read!

…You Are About to be Exposed to an Amazingly Powerful Career Development and Mentoring Program That Will Provide the Key to Finding Ultimate Screenwriting Success in a Fraction of the Time.

Dear Aspiring Screenwriter,

Let’s get real…

The chances of success for screenwriters today is scary.

I won’t even go into the numbers, but let’s just say you have a better chance of winning the lottery than selling a screenplay in Hollywood.

That’s the Bad News.

The Good News is that someone has to write all those films that see the inside of a Cineplex (not to mention all the scripts that are bought but never made). And don’t forget all the TV shows -- on a gazillion channels and counting!

The question is…

“How does the average aspiring screenwriter become that somebody?”

“How can that scribe’s name in the opening credits be yours?”

This is an epic question!

With no absolute answer.

There are as many ways to break into the industry as there are writers.

Here’s some more bad news. (I might as well get it all out up front.)

With the rare exception aside, it takes the average writer 5-10 years and 5-10 (or more) scripts for ‘overnight success.’

You’re probably thinking, “There’s no way I can struggle that long, writing that many scripts, without any guarantee of success!”
Believe me, you’re not alone.

The fact is, most so-called writers never even finish one screenplay, let alone ten. And most give up after a year or two.

Ready for the worst news?

Many of those who stick it out for several years and several scripts…still don’t get that ‘big break.’

In fact, many of them never even earn a living wage at this business.
Okay, take a breath…

“Why Do Most Aspiring Writers Utterly Fail Within the First Five Years of Their Writing Careers?”

Of course there are many reasons for a writer’s failure. Lack of talent, craft, bad luck (actually, I don’t believe in luck, but that’s for another discussion).

Here’s the fundamental problem…

Most Writers keep making the same mistakes, script after script, query after query, pitch after pitch, meeting after meeting -- year after year -- until they finally throw in the towel.

It’s not surprising, really.

There’s a lot to learn, not only about screenwriting and the ‘proper care and feeding of a screenwriter’, but about the industry and the Hollywood game as well. And here’s one of those proverbial catch-22’s…

“It’s Tough to Learn About the Game When You’re Spending Most of the Time on the Bench – or Worse, Looking Through the Fence, Fingers Clasped Over the Chain Links, Yearning to Be a Part of the Action.”

So there’s the rub.

How does an aspiring writer get the experience and knowledge she needs to find her way through the Hollywood maze?

“The Quickest and Easiest Path to Screenwriting Success is so Simple it May Surprise You.”

It’s ages-old common sense. But it’s very well hidden amidst the barrage of misinformation bombarding screenwriters on a regular basis.

Most writers will read a few books, take a couple workshops, even enroll in an extension course…then wonder why they aren’t making the progress they want.

The problem isn’t with the classes or books (okay, maybe some of them), it’s with the consistency of exposure, information, and ongoing, face-to-face feedback.

You take a class, read a book, get inspired…do a little writing, make a few phone calls…and then life crowds in, inertia kicks in, and before you know it…your half-finished or under-marketed script is collecting dust again.

You know the story.

Hey, I used to suffer through this rollercoaster ride of inspiration, procrastination, and depression too…until I discovered the secret…

“To Reach Your Destination, You Need Constant Feedback to Keep You On Course.”

When a pilot flies a plane, he’s getting constant feedback from a variety of sources (instruments, control tower, co-pilot). If he only gets feedback once or twice, once in a while, he will never reach his destination – or worse, he’ll crash and burn.

A plane is off course 90% of the time. But because of constant feedback, it’s able to get back on its flight plan and arrive at its next stop – on time!

So what do you need to create a power-packed flight plan – and stay on course?

I’ll give you a clue…it’s not just another book or class.

It’s not just ‘working harder’ or even ‘working smarter.’

In fact, it’s a rarely implemented, far superior method.

You ready?

“The Quickest, Easiest Way to Success In Any Industry Is to Find a Mentor Willing to Share the Secrets of the Trade and Show You the Way to the Top, Step by Step – Day by Day.”

That’s right…the answer is MENTORING.

Many of the most successful people throughout history – artists, athletes, business professionals -- have achieved their dreams by being mentored by someone who had done what they wanted to do, and been where they wanted to go.

It’s that simple.

But there are a couple reasons why this doesn’t happen very often…

1. It’s not really in the best interest of industry leaders to train potential competition (at least that’s what some think), so you rarely hear about it in Hollywood.

2. Finding a working professional who has the time to mentor is a difficult, and often impossible, task…

Until Now!

Enter The Write Coach.

“Write Coach is Scriptwriter Central’s Answer To the Industry’s Need for a Strong Relationship-Centered Mentoring Program.”

“You can read and hear all the theories of how to make it in this business – but it’ll never compare to having real face-time with a professional who’s already proven themselves.”

Reworking your material and marketing plans over and over, and getting ongoing feedback to keep you on course, will not only strip your material down to its pure essence – it’ll strip away your blocks and limitations as well.

You are refined even as your material is.

What’s more important is that you not only learn to write and market yourself better, you learn to judge and analyze your material for yourself – ultimately becoming a master too.

And here’s what’s so amazing about this program…

“Our Team of Industry Pros at the Write Coach Has Put Together a Supercharged Training That Can Get Even the Greenest Screenwriter Up to Speed Within a Year.”

SO WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT FROM THE WRITE COACH?

Congratulations!!!

By Now, You’re Probably Wondering “What Does The Write Coach Cost?”

Considering the fact that our Mentors will be giving focused one on one training and counseling throughout the month, every month, it would be fair if we priced the program based on their hourly rate.

The Average Rate for Our Mentors Could Easily Be $200 an Hour, $1500 a Day, $5000 a Week – or More!

But, as I’ve already mentioned, money isn’t their primary reason for doing this. (Don’t get me wrong, they’ll take the check, they just don’t need it.) And we know that most writers don’t have the budget of a production company or studio.

“Film School Can Cost $25,000 or More!”

And most graduates have little more than a hefty student loan to show for all of their hours of study.

What’s more, you rarely get the practical, real-world wisdom you need to survive in the halls of Academia. Not so with the Write Coach.

So…what we’ve arranged is a flat tuition fee of $1289 for the six month program, or $2495 for the one year program.

Or, if $2495 is more than you can afford to put down all at once, we’ve put together an ongoing monthly payment plan of $249 a month.

“For barely more than the cost of a cappuccino and pastry (or a McDonald’s value meal) per day…you can begin moving your career toward real and lasting success!”

Wait, there’s more…

As a thank you for entering the inner circle of Scriptwriter Central as a Write Coach Student, you will also receive the following bonuses at no additional cost;

  • A Copy of Derek Rydall’s Book, “I Could've Written a Better Movie Than That!: How to Make Six Figures as a Script Consultant -- Even if You're Not a Screenwriter.”
  • A Copy of The Script Consultant Institute’s “In-Depth Script Analysis” Workbook.
  • Several consultations with professionals who specialize in areas important to creating a fully rounded, healthy, balanced writing life – Marketing, Personal Finance, Health & Fitness, and more! (Scriptwriter Central continues to form these strategic alliances to give our students insight into areas that most programs ignore.)

And last, because we believe in the quality and efficacy of Write Coach so much, we offer what no other institution will offer…

A Bullet Proof - Better Than 100% RISK-FREE MONEY-BACK GUARANTEE.

Join The Write Coach Today.

Start reading through the course material and get in touch with your personal Mentor to begin the first phase of the program.

Together you will organize, prioritize, create goals, and take the first major steps toward accelerating your screenwriting career.

Ask all the questions you want. Follow up with your mentor as much as needed. Take advantage of all The Write Coach has to offer.

Take a full 30 days to make sure The Write Coach is right for you.

If at any time during the first thirty days you feel The Write Coach and your one-on-one training are not useful to you and your career – just say so. We will gladly refund every penny of your tuition. No questions asked… and no hard feelings either.

But here’s our ‘better-than-money-back-guarantee’…

Even if you choose not to stay with us as a student, you still get to keep everything you gained during the month. All the goal-plan outlines, all feedback notes, even the two books by Derek Rydall. And you get it all at absolutely no cost whatsoever.

It’s our way of saying thank you for giving the Write Coach an honest try. If you can’t truly benefit from all we have to offer… well, you shouldn’t have to pay for it. That’s how we see it anyway.

But how will you truly know that this is not for you unless you give it an honest try?

That’s why I want to give you a full thirty days to discover for yourself if The Write Coach and its Mentorship gets you writing better, faster, and smarter than you could ever do on your own.

If by any chance it doesn’t, it won’t cost you a dime. And you get to keep the two books, along with everything else you gained during the month – A SERVICE VALUED AT SEVERAL HUNDRED DOLLARS – just for trying our program on for size.

Fair enough?

As you can see, we’ve done all we can think of to make The Write Coach the best – and quite possibly the only -- program of its kind in the world.

There are things professional screenwriters know and do which make them professionals. What’s hard for most aspiring writers to understand is that many of these things can’t be neatly packaged into a book, or even a three-day workshop, and sold to the masses.

Real-World Wisdom just doesn’t work like that.

The Write Coach Mentorship Program is the best way we know of to transfer real-life knowledge to the writer who is trying to become a true professional.

“The Only Way to Achieve This is Through Intensive, Ongoing, One-On-One Training that Uncovers Your Blind Spots, Removes Your Blocks, and Actualizes Your Full, Unique Potential.”

Is it costly?

For some, yes.

But so is wasting the next five years making the same mistakes – probably spending as much money on things that don’t add any real value – and most likely missing out on a lot more dollars in potential deals.

Again, what are we really talking about here…a little more than the cost of a visit to Starbucks or McDonalds a day.

Is this program costly compared to most training programs?

Not by a long shot.

“A Two-Year Technical Training Course Could Easily Cost You $20,000 or More!”

And, again, most of these courses never give you the real-world information you actually need to be successful.

Other year-long training programs can cost you $10,000 to $15,000!
There are One-Week Training Programs that Cost You $10,000 to $25,000!

In other words, $1289 for the six month program, $2495 for the one year program, or $249 per month…for real-world, life-changing, state-of-the-art training is a pretty amazing deal.

Now, we recognize that a program this intensive isn’t for everybody.

Then again, neither is having a successful screenwriting career.
But if it’s for you…

Oh, one last thing…

You may decide, for now, that Write Coach isn’t right for you -- and that’s fine.

But if it isn’t, what is?

Unlike a lot of your competition, you now have the burden of knowing about the power of Mentorship – and the one place you can get the most comprehensive experience of it.

You can go ahead and check out all the books and courses. You can look into one year, two year, and four year programs -- but you’ll find nothing as efficient or effective as The Write Coach.

You may still be skeptical. That’s okay. We expect it. In fact, we welcome it.

But that’s what the risk-free guarantee is for.

We invite you to take what could very well be your first step towards a successful writing career.

We sincerely wish you the best in your career and life,

The Write Coach Team

P.S. -- There are only 5 reasons not to enroll in The Write Coach Mentoring Program today (if you’ve read some of our other information, you might recognize these reasons. They’re just too good to leave out):

1. No money.

If you're broke, it should be obvious that you’re doing something wrong in your career. That’s not a judgment of you, I promise. I've been broke, too. But I had to face the reality that I was creating my state of success -- or lack of it – and do something about it! You know the definition of ‘crazy,’ right? It’s doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result. This is your chance to do something differently…and get out of the Insane Asylum of Unsold Scripts! Many other writers are doing it. Don't you deserve it too? Isn't it your turn? Isn’t it your time? That is, unless you think you have…

2. No time.

Working with a mentor…and doing the necessary rewriting of your script, your life strategy, and your marketing plan takes time. Sometimes lots of it. So I'm with you here. But you know what, successful writers – and successful people in every field – make the time, instead of making excuses. And here’s another thing…the time’s going to go by anyway…so why not do something that’ll make your life better?
Time is a choice, not a limitation. Who's in charge of your life, anyway?

3. No need.

If you’re having all the success you want with your writing, then either you've set your sites too low or you're lying. The bar can always be lifted. I believe in doing what others think is impossible. Even if you think your current success level is fine (and I really doubt you do, or you wouldn’t be reading this), you can always write better and sell more!

4. No interest.

If you've read up to this point, then you're clearly interested in knowing how to improve your writing and your writing career. Some people say they aren't interested as a way to cover-up a deeper excuse, often to hide the fact that they don't have the money. Well, see #1 above. If you're really not interested, why are you reading this?

5. No way.

This excuse covers everything from "I resist sales pitches" to "I’ve already taken enough classes and read enough books" to "I already know all of this." Yea, right. They're all excuses. They’re coming from people not wanting to succeed, and blaming others when they don't succeed.

If even Million-Dollar Writers -- and top professionals in every field -- still get regular feedback from coaches, consultants, and mentors, don’t you think maybe, just maybe, you still need to?

Do you really know all you need to know? Are you really getting the daily, weekly, monthly input you need to stay on track to success?

What's left?

Nothing. Unless you just don’t want to take your writing career to the next level.

Remember, there is absolutely no risk for you to try us out.

So, what are you waiting for?
