Nick Daws, author of "Write Any Book in 28 Days or Less" and "The Wealthy Writer" had this to say about "Write Better Movies":

"Write Better Movies is an inspirational e-book from freelance writer and film-maker Phil South. Phil is passionate about film, and in this concise manifesto he sets out his views on why many films made today are substandard, and how screenwriters can help remedy that by writing better scripts.

"As befits a book on film-writing, Phil sets out his prescription for writing better movies in three Acts. In the first, he discusses the role of screenwriters in the film-making business and why he feels so passionate about it. Act Two then examines the many ingredients that go into making a good movie. Phil distills this into a five-factor CHIME formula.

"Finally, in Act Three, Phil sets out seven recommended procedures to guide screenwriters in their work and help them produce better scripts. There is some great advice here, expressed in a concise, easily digested form.

"Overall, Write Better Movies is a great little guide for any aspiring screenwriter who wants to bring his or her work up to the next level.
