ABSTRACT
Tom isn’t alone. I’ve seen the interest in co-writing scripts rapidly rising among writers and students. And I’m not surprised: Each year the list of script partners and their successes grows longer (in 2002, half of the scripts nominated for the Best Screenplay Oscar were co-written by ampersands, the industry designation for writing teams). Why? Because as Tom and Matt Stevens & I and so many others have discovered, collaborative writing is one of the most productive and successful ways to write short or long scripts. So if you’re interested in writing with a partner, I strongly suggest that you give it a try.
