Thanks for the idea, Scott! I just checked my local library's web site and found copies that can be checked out going all the way back to 2002. The new 2008 edition is reference only for the time being.

While surfing I came across this article (http://io9.com/5065556/secrets-of-great-characters-according-to-6-science-fiction-authors) on character development. It's written for SciFi authors, but the concepts certainly apply to screenwriting!

Tom, thanks for that link. Worthy of more discussion, so at some point in the next week or so, I'll post and comment on it.
