Three-Hole Punchdrunk

Episode - 74

January 29, 2013 Follow Up, Meta, News, Scriptnotes, Transcribed

Craig and John discuss a new report that tallies spec script sales for 2012 — with the reminder that selling a spec isn’t necessarily the most important thing for new writers.

After some follow-up on last week’s Raiders episode, we crunch the numbers on our listener survey and discuss the genesis of Courier Prime, the typeface all the best scripts will be sporting in 2013.

Finally, we tackle reader questions on topics ranging from Facebook connections to “just checking in.”

All this and many suggestions for hole-punching in this week’s Scriptnotes.
