The book features 60 full-color, single-panel comics and an inspiring foreword by Academy Award?-winning screenwriter Bruce Joel Rubin (Ghost, Jacob?s Ladder, My Life, Deep Impact). Readers will also find a chapter of humorous anecdotes about the process of writing from a variety of award-winning working writers.
