  Known as the literary lion, Peter Miller has been an extraordinarily active literary   and  film manager for more than thirty years. He is President of PMA Literary and   Film Management, Inc. and Millennium Lion, Inc.; he and his company have   successfully managed more than 1,000 books worldwide, as well as dozens of   motion picture and television properties. These works include eleven New York   Times Bestsellers, and fourteen produced films that Miller has managed or   executive produced. Three of those films have been nominated for Emmy Awards:   Goodbye, Miss Fourth of July (The Disney Channel, with four nominations); A Gift   of Love (Showtime, two nominations); and Helter Skelter (CBS, one nomination).   In addition, Miller has a number of film and television projects currently in active development, with some nearing production, in association with Warner Bros. Features, Warner Bros. Television, Paramount/DreamWorks, HBO, and many other producers and production companies.

  Helen Turnbull (Plantation,   Florida USA)
  "By the time you are finished   reading his book and viewing his   DVD you have a very clear picture   of what lies ahead - no rose   colored glasses, advice for the   dedicated writer; you are clearer   than you ever imagined you could   be about what lies ahead. Buy this   book if you are serious about our   writing career."

  Thomas McCloud (Houston,   TX)
  "...exciting and stimulating with a   galloping narrative pace. Full of   resourceful `cut through the noise'   content that will boom confidence   in hopeful writers decade after   decade...."

  Ralf Hirt (New York City, USA)
  "It is clear that some decades of   experience have made this book an   outstanding piece that everyone ,   who is in the field of authoring   and/or screenwriting, should read."

  Beverly Allen "Screenwriter"   (New York)
  "Everything I need to know is in   these pages, with invaluable   examples so I have something   concrete to go on as I prepare   proposals and negotiate contracts.   It's as if you have fifteen meetings   with Peter himself, plus all the   supporting materials you could   desire, and he's there across the   table with his brilliance and energy   sharing his wonderful expertise in   a way that's both highly literate and   highly accessible."

  R. Ressler "Eben Reilly"   (NYC/VT)
  "Besides being informative   Author!Screenwriter reads well.   Not one of these pedantic authors   who list the do's and don'ts of   publishing like a guide to   professional etiquette, Peter has   great stories to tell to back up his   advice."

  Monette L. Bebow Reinhard   (Wisconsin)
  "As a novelist and screenwriter   myself, I got really tired of reading   that I can be one or the other, but   not both. Anyone who aspires to   adapt their own book into a movie,   or anyone who wants to know the   realities of these business scenes,   or even if you're just looking for   inspiration - I found it here. Thanks,   Peter!"

  sminklemeyer
  "I've read just about every "writer"   book on the market, and Peter   Miller's is by far the best. This book   is worth the price just to see the   proposals on nonfiction, fiction,   television, movies and mini series.   Oh by the way, the proposals are   real and landed writers a lot of   cash."

  P. Lion "The American St. Nick"
  "Peter has taken his years of   knowledge and experience and   "bottom-lined" everything you   should know about writing and   getting published/produced. Save   yourself the headaches and   heartaches that await and read   Peter's book BEFORE you start   shopping your manuscript."

  Robert Stone "PsychDr" (Pacific   Northwest)
  "Many books claim to accomplish   what this one does. He teaches us   how to be sellable without selling   out. He gives us a real-world   introduction to publishing and the   agent/author relationship. Every   word is written for our success.   Few agents have matched his   accomplishments in the business,   and far fewer could (or would) tell   us exactly what it takes for us to   succeed the way Peter does in this   interesting and exciting book."
