You must always save the cat in a screenplay. Never, never, never kill the cat when you are writing a screenplay. Actually, please have your main character save the cat when you write a story of any kind.
You see I am a cat. And I would never watch your movie or read your book if you were mean to a cat.

I know what it is like to be a cat. Because, I am a cat. I know what is like to eat dry cat food on the floor. I know what it is like to eat grass. I know what it is like to not have any thumbs and wait for someone to open the door or a can of food for me.

My mother kept saying to me, “You should be chasing mice for a living. You are not a writer. You are a mouser.”
My biggest problem was I believed what my mother said. I didn’t believe in myself.
After reading Mr. Goins book, You Are A Writer, I realized the only way to be a writer, was to act like one.
