This one-of-a-kind collection of essays by more than 50 leading film and television writers is linked by the theme of a writer's "first time"--usually the first time they got paid for their work. These entertaining (and sometimes hilarious) pieces say what it takes to succeed, what it takes to write well, and other aspects of maintaining creativity and integrity while striving for a career in Hollywood.
