ANOTHER GREBANIER FAN
I discovered Bernard Grebanier's Playwriting in the best possible way, at a thriftshop. Just two quarters bought me an introduction to some great insights on dramatic writing.
The Grumpy Old Bookman digs Grebanier too, and he gives us a nice thumbnail history of dramatic writing gurus. McKee ain't the first one, not by a long shot.
If you're looking to write killer loglines, and pitch perfectly, Grebanier's Proposition is worth studying at length.

John August talks money management for screenwriters. Really smart stuff. Just what you'd expect from a graduate of USC's Peter Stark Producing Program.
In short, keep your day job.
