Stop Dreaming. Start Writing.
The Screenwriting Workbook that turns ideas into a Hollywood‐style feature script.
Have you ever sat down to write a screenplay and felt the page staring back at you?
You’ve got the idea, the characters, maybe even a killer scene-line—but you don’t know what comes next. You’ve read “how to” articles, watched tutorials, downloaded templates—but at the end of the day you still don’t have a script, just a pile of notes or a blinking cursor. You’re stuck. That’s the problem.
I’ve been there. As a screenwriter and mentor, I’ve watched talented writers with genuine ideas die in the “what comes next?” stage—because the map wasn’t clear.
I know how it feels to think your idea matters but find yourself going in circles, rewriting loglines, re-outlining, staring at a blank act two.
That frustration, that self-doubt, the endless “should I outline more?” or “Is this structure right?” … it kills momentum. You’re not alone—and yes, there is a way out.
Introducing the Screenwriting Workbook by D.C. Rahe: a step-by-step guide to writing a Hollywood-style screenplay.
This isn’t another vague theory book. It’s 13 lessons + 13 exercises designed to take you from idea to outline to first draft—with clarity, structure, and momentum.
Inside you’ll find:
A complete movie breakdown so you see how the structure works in a real script.
A ready-to-use pitch formula and outline template to give you direction.
Character profile pages that help your characters do more than walk across a page—they act, they change, they drive the story.
The full feature-length screenplay to study, so you learn by doing.
Whether you’re writing your first script or rebooting a stalled one, this workbook gives you the map, the tools, and the practice.
Imagine waking up to a writing day where you don’t ask “what now?”
By the time you finish this workbook, you’ll have:
A fully mapped screenplay outline (no more “What happens next?”)
A first-draft in progress or completed (depending on your pace)
A clear pitch and positioning for your script (so you’re not just writing, you’re readying)
Confidence in your structure, your characters, and your story—not just hope.
And most importantly—you’ll stop saying “one day I’ll write a script” and start saying “my screenplay is written. Now what’s next?”
🎬 You open your workbook, you’re on lesson 5, you’ve already sketched your main character, you’ve got your logline locked.
🎬 You write pages, not just notes. You move from scene to scene, because you know where you’re going.
🎬 You stop waiting for inspiration and start creating with intention.
With the Screenwriting Workbook, the blank page becomes a bridge—not a barrier.
