All the same, some additional features were added here in 2003. The major one was personal -- nearly a year's worth of excerpts from my writing blog. Along the way I also added the usual analyses of a few recent films.
2003 also brought the first significant fall in sales. The economy, I suppose. But this fact, too, depleted energy for the technical update.
I'll continue to teach screenwriting at the University and online through 2004 since it continues to be fun. However, now I'll make this decision year to year and soon may retire from teaching entirely. I'll never retire from writing, of course. Writers only retire when they die.
I continue to be proud of this screenwriting course. I believe it is the best screenwriting product on the market. Many users have come to agree with me. I hope you become one of them.
May 2004 find you screenwriting well and often.
