Author: Bulletproof Screenwriting July 5, 2024 Duration: 1:03:26
Today on the show we have head of writer success at Coverfly, Thomas Dever. Thomas has been helping screenwriters for years. I wanted to have him on the show to discuss what he's seeing in the film business, from a street level. 

Thomas works with all the major agencies, top end producers and managers. If anyone knows what Hollywood is looking or he'd be the one. 

We also discuss how screenwriters can better position themselves in the marketplace, debunk a few myths many screenwriters believe and much more. 

Enjoy my conversation with Thomas Dever.
