HOW TO SUCCEED AS A WRITER
IN NEW YORK AND HOLLYWOOD
BY PETER MILLER
Peter Miller of PMA Literary & Film Management, Inc. is pleased to announce the sale of his book Author! Screenwriter! How to Succeed as a Writer in New York and Hollywood to Jill Alexander and Gary Krebs at Adams Media in a nice deal.
Author! Screenwriter! How to Succeed as a Writer in New York and Hollywood draws upon Peter's over thirty years of experience in the publishing and film industries to give authors—both potential and published—advice on how to do just that: get published and get produced. This book is a comprehensive and helpful resource for authors, covering everything from how to structure a proposal, to how to write for feature film or television.
The book is especially geared towards the writer “who doesn't have a clue about where he or she should start once they have finished writing their book or screenplay.” The book includes various samples of what to do and what not to do when submitting inquiries, proposals, and manuscripts, as well as several examples of literary and film proposals that sold and why they sold. This new edition will also include many new examples of the success stories that Peter has been a part of in recent years and Peter's reassessment of current trends in both industries.
Known as the “Literary Lion,” Peter Miller, President of PMA, has been responsible for the representation, presentation, packaging and negotiation for over 1,000 books on behalf of many bestselling authors. Additionally, he has maintained close contacts with West Coast-based agents, managers and writers and visits Los Angeles regularly.
In Author! Screenwriter! How to Succeed as a Writer in New York and Hollywood Peter parlays his unique and in-depth knowledge of the publishing, film and television industries into a book that will appeal to potential and published writers of books and screenplays of all types. As Peter puts it, “I hope to inspire them and lay the groundwork for many future successes.” Author! Screenwriter! is an invaluable companion for any author throughout the publishing process, and beyond.
