O'Reilly Media, Inc.
, 2005
Practical and useful
Great book. The emphasis is nicely split between actually using the shell itself and the whole supporting cast of unix tools (sed, awk, cut, join, sort etc.) The idea of carefully crafting solutions using the unix toolbox mindset is key. I also like the fact he doesn't ...
Save The Cat! The Last Book on Screenwriting You'll Ever Need
Blake Snyder

Good for those who want to make a living in the business
I have read over a dozen screen writer books and this one feels more like you are hearing good advice from someone who has sold scripts, had movies made, and can truly be called a professional writer versus just a writer living off of aspiring writers looking for any ...

Just found this one.

The Hollywood Standard: The Complete and Authoritative Guide to Script Format and Style
Christopher Riley
Michael Wiese Productions

Very good
I only disagreed with the format used for montages. You don't need alphabetized bullets for each montage sequence. Readers aren't that dumb. Otherwise I refer to it constantly.
FrontPage 2003 (The Missing Manual)
Jessica Mantaro
Pogue Press
, 2005
Well worth the money ! !
This manual cleared up a lot of questions I had about Microsoft's FrontPage 2003. Microsoft should be ashamed that they didn't care enough about their users to include this with the program. I'd recommend this to anyone who is having problems understanding FrontPage.
