I didn’t go West young man seeking fame and fortune. I had no ambition to be a screenwriter. I never dreamed I could do it. Fact is, I had never seen a screenplay, lest of all read one. Instead, Hollywood came to me- out of the blue. That initial encounter ended up consuming the better part of a twelve-year period in my life, and a hefty sum of money as well.

Twenty years have now passed since my initial encounter with Hollywood. And I still receive inquiries asking, Whatever happened to that big-screen Hollywood movie about the destruction of Jerusalem and the Jewish Temple circa A.D. 70 that you were working on?

This book is my story of the highs and lows I experienced and endured during those twelve years pursuing Hollywood, along with the resultant 125-page (in 81/2 x 11 format) and 12th and final draft of that script/screenplay those years and that adventure produced.

Therefore, in this book you will discover:

How Hollywood came to me.

What a big-budget, action-adventure, historical-epic screenplay looks like.

How one pitches a project of this scope to producers, agents, and the studios.

Warnings and dangers for screenwriters to beware of.

Why Hollywood is the only town in the world where you can die from encouragement.

Why I departed Hollywood and returned to writing books.
