Can someone send me some tips on script writing? I'm working on some ideas for some cheesy B-movie scripts.
There's going to be one called "Vixen Vamp Slayers," and a double-bill deal called "Trailer Trash Zombies from Hell" and "Dollar Mart Zombie Apocalypse."
Think uber-ridiculous cheesy, in the style of "Tremors 2."
;)

These should give you the gist:
Screenplay Format Guide (http://www.screenplayformat.net/spf/index.cfm)
How To Write A Screenplay (http://www.howtowriteascreenplay.net/how/index.cfm)
And it wouldn't hurt to read a few scripts to get a handle on how the pros do it, so try Simply Scripts (http://www.simplyscripts.com/).
Good luck, Madam Breasty Hug :p

Syxxpac has given you a few great sources. I'll also reccomend you to download Word/Works templates for screenplay format while you're getting used to writing them, they're a big help. Maybe a few free screenwriting software á la Drakkon (http://www.drakkonsoft.com/).
By the way, if you have MSN messenger, find me as "nightcrawler_x_2@hotmail.com". I'd be glad to help you in stupendous real time.

I used to use Word but it is VERY difficult. Final Draft is definitely the best out there and is what I use now. What could have taken months on Word took merely weeks on FD. It's a very helpful program, especially to first time screenwriters
then maybe I need to d/l it.....

If you just use MS Word, "do a Google" for "Dramadog".
It's a macro for Word that formats screenplays pretty well, especially if you haven't the money to fork out for Final Draft or MMS.

In the worst cases you can use the tab key for formatting in Word and it's only annoying at the very first, you get used to it immediately.
Of course ,if you can get Final Draft, it's the best.
