"There's nothing to stop a man from writing unless that man stops himself. If a man truly desires to write, then he will. Rejection and ridicule will only strengthen him. And the longer he is held back the stronger he will become, like a mass of rising water against a dam."
-- Charles Bukowski

About Me
- Jim Vines
- I've been a working screenwriter and script consultant since the early 1990s. My non-fiction book Q & A: The Working Screenwriter (interviews w/ 16 working scribes) became quite popular upon its publication in 2006. In April 2015 I published my debut novel, Luigi's Chinese Delicatessen, which is a rollicking tale about a young man coming to Los Angeles to become--yes, you guessed it--a screenwriter. I currently have two blogs: one for screenwriters and one for indie novelists. I do hope you find them useful. Comments always welcome! All content copyright © by Jim Vines.
