Dear Film Industry Professional: The Hollywood Script Readers' Digest was started for one main reason: to help writers and producers get together. To anyone with even the most cursory exposure to the labyrinthine world of major studio film production and network TV, it is depressingly obvious that the process of "schmoozing" those in a position to realize projects is as subject to chance as it is the often impenetrable though sometimes invisible walls that only the well-connected or monied seem able to breach. With our publication - and website - we hope to virtually eliminate chance and figuratively level the walls that have heretofore prevented talented creators from reaching the people they need to reach.

Now, for the first time, agent, producer, director, bankable actor- anyone can sit down with our printed catalog or browse our website and, in a matter of minutes, get an overview of the spectrum of currently available movie scripts and TV series ideas being developed by today's most creative and energetic writers. The Hollywood Script Readers' Digest provides a hitherto nonexistent forum where writers can go to present outlines of their ideas for all to peruse and pursue.

Enjoy this most current issue with our compliments. And we won't be surprised if your response is: "Why didn't somebody do this before?" Sincerely, The Publishers
