As some of you know I run a 'Screenwriters Writing Novels' Facebook group. Once a month or so I get someone from the industry who has had success writing screenplays and novels to share their experiences and advice. Don is a member of this group and he suggested I post the latest one here for anyone interested.

The chat is with Andy Briggs, the agent Julian Friedmann from the Blake Friedmann Literary Agency and myself. It's a live chat streamed to FB with no editing so you get to see and hear it warts and all, including the cringy opening and me accidentally muting Andy early on.

As a precursor to this, here is a list of some of the screenplays Andy has worked on:

And here is his catalogue of novels:

The video can be downloaded here at the below link. it's about an hour-long, 254 meg in MP4 format.

Of course, if you want to join the group then click Join group here and I'll see to it that you get approved and you can watch it there as well as previous chats. https://www.facebook.com/groups/286360800251822

Great stuff, Mark.
