ABSTRACT

If you look at a book editor’s desk, every manuscript sitting there in piles has the same format-1-inch margins, double-spaced, 12-point type, specific information in page headers. If you look at a stack of screenplays on a showrunner’s desk, you’ll see they all have their own format, too-dialog centered, certain words in all-caps, spaces between paragraphs, 12-point type.
