Great book
This is a great book, I lend it to all my friends. It's the kind of book I wish everyone had read before starting a relationship!
Very good dustpan
This is a large dustpan which is useful around my workshop. It seems to be well made and fairly sturdy. It came with a little rubber strip for the dust collecting edge. The piece of rubber seemed like it would just get in the way, so I didn't use it. If I was using the dustpan on a nice wood floor I would have kept it attached. I didn't give it five stars because the sheet metal is a little thinner than the smaller Unisan Dustpan I purchased at the same time. I think both will last a long time, but the Unisan, which is made in the USA, is just that much more solid.
good dust pan
It's a very large pan that looks to be well constructed. It's sturdy and works pretty well. The rubber strip along the front doesn't always seal to the floor, so it will take more effort at times, to get all the dust. The extra large size can be a detriment at times, because you can't get it into the smaller places, but that's a minor issue. All in all, I'm quite pleased with it. It doesn't twist or flex and seems like it will last a long time with daily shop use.
A must-read for would-be sitcom writers
This book is very well-organized, well-written and very informative. I have found that I refer to it often. It is worth the investment if you are serious about sitcom writing.
A Solid Book
Although it has an unfortunate title (who the hell wants to write sitcoms? - aren't they supposed to be dead?), this book is one of the better resources on the subject of television writing in general. It paints a very realistic picture of the business and acknowledges some of the changes that are taking place within the industry. This is a good book for someone who already knows how to write a solid script, but who'd like to learn more about the TV biz.
The Best Book I Read on the Subject
If you're considering writing sitcoms and if you are serious about it you must read this book.The writer not only gives his reader a few hints on how creating characters and stories,but he also explains how this business works,what its (sometimes rude) rules are and much more and this is why it is such an interesting book ... After having read it you'll know where to start, what to do ,and where you have to go to sell it. I am writing an essay on sitcoms and this is the best book I have read on the subject.
