The Publishing Spot Library: Screenwriter Allen Rucker

We were on CBS News today, and not because they found out about the bank we robbed to finance our freelance writing careers.

If you follow that link, you can see that The Early Show used some of our six-word memoir party footage. Even better, the video features the work of three graduates of The Publishing Spot's Grad-School of Hard Knocks: scriptwriter and memoirist Allen Rucker; and Smith Magazine editors, Larry Smith and Rachel Fershleiser (you can see their interview here).

I thought I'd take this chance to index our complete interview with Allen Rucker. His book just came out in paperback, after all. Follow these links for some quality writing advice from the man who wrote this six-word memoir: "Alas, a farewell to legs. Next!"

Allen Rucker taught us How To Keep Writing Despite Personal Disasters.

Then gave a primer on How To Write For Hollywood.

Followed by a lesson on How Hardboiled Novels Can Improve Your Writing.

Then he showed us How To Structure and Revise A Memoir.

And finally, he gave advice on How To Pitch A Non-Fiction Book.
