Want Do Get is a comprehensive guide to writing better screenplays. It contains many useful tools and techniques that will help any writer to produce more entertaining and well-structured scripts. Readers will also find it a useful guide for other types of storytelling, such as plays and novels.

The book has been designed to maximise readability, with chapters split into short sections, including helpful illustrations, and a sans serif font.

Merlin Goldman has been writing stories for over a decade. Some of these have become plays (collected in the anthology Pieces), poems (Voices Along the Road), and novels (The Carpenter and The Goat Herder). A graduate of LSF's Talent Campus programme, he has written, produced, or directed over half a dozen short films.

Merlin Goldman has published three books: Play Better Scrabble, Pieces, and The Carpenter and the Goat Herder. My latest book Want Do Get, on creative writing, is the first non-fiction work he's authored. It's based on several years of attending workshops and training courses in screenwriting and by studying many films. He's won places on schemes with the NFTS, Screenology, and was funded by ScreenSkills to attend Talent Campus 5, run by the London Screenwriters Festival. He' been shortlisted for the Pears Film Fund (twice) and Script to Screen and made half a dozen films either as writer, director, or producer. Several have won awards.
