Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from How to Write for the "Movies"
My four years in the editorial chair of the Essanay Company brought me in the neighbor hood of twenty thousand letters from ambitious photoplaywrights, begging me to help them write a scenario. During my connection with the Chi cago Herald my mail has also contained hundreds of requests for help. In answer to this insistent plea I have prepared this textbook, which I trust will help the photoplaywright in his upward climb to success. It comes to you with my good wishes and with the hope that it may help you to become one of the world's most famous photoplaywrights.
