I’m finally getting my act together. I want to know if anyone here’s written a screenplay or had one produced? Also, can anyone reccomend a good book for outlining the basics of writing one? Thanks in advance.

The Complete Book of Scriptwriting by J.M.Straczynski is an excellent book on script and screen play writing. He has written two editions, with the second edition drawing on stuff learned from working as Producer of Babylon-5 as well.

For learning the industry-standard formats and outlines, forget the book. Get software that does everything for you. I use “Script Thing”; $200, but worth every cent.
