Collection of pieces on writing for the Screen, theatre, tv and radio, with insiders' contributions from Bob Ritchie, Timothy West, Mal Young and others.  Over 400 useful listings.  Our reviewer said: 'This book won’t teach you how to write plays – there are plenty of good books out there that can do this – but it will show you what to do with them next, and that’s important too.'
