Screenwriter's Bible

I finished reading the Screenwriter's Bible, by David Trottier.  It's a complete guide to writing, formatting, and selling a script.  I received the book as a gift quite a while ago, but finally made the time to read it.  There were a lot of things that I already knew and help with getting started which I didn't need.  But there were some excellent formatting tips that I didn't know about.  So it's time to go through each screenplay for yet another revision, this time focusing more on the format of it.  It's an unbelievable amount of work (especially since I've written so many screenplays now that I have to go back to) but this should make each screenplay look like it's supposed to and give it a better shot of being read.
