"Board games come with a set of rules in order to play the game. A car comes with an owner's manual to help you understand the way your car works. Screenwriting should come with this book. (It) covers everything a screenwriter needs to know in order to successfully navigate through the tough field of screenwriting. From laying down the guidelines that will help you create a screenplay that will get read by Hollywood, to detailing how each step of the screenwriter's journey to Hollywood works; Yoneda succeeds in writing a comprehensive cross between a rule book and manual that every beginning screenwriter would be well-advised to read." Jeffrey M. Somogyi - New York Screenwriter Monthly
