Can anyone here recommend a good Screenwriting Software?
It's been 20 years since I wrote for screen or stage, but today the muse came and gave me something I feel worth writing and is marketable.

Thanks!

1. Yes

there are several actually

1.- Final Draft
2.-Movie Magic Screen Writer
3.- Word (Yes it does have templates)

I hope this helps. I personally use Movie Magic for the novels... oh and here is a freebie, if you like working with cards.. Ywriter, no it is not a movie screen writer, but the planning tools will help with the planning... another freebie...

You will need to download an empty version, the links are there... but it is a thing of beauty

And here is the how to use it...

4. I've been using Final Draft to develop my sitcom
I'm still back at version 6, but it works very well for me.
