Director Ron Howard...
I found MAKING A GOOD SCRIPT GREAT so helpful, specifically your section on the Central Question and on creating scene sequences. I've used those concepts on all my films starting with APOLLO 13.
Writer Ray Bradbury...
Linda's technique is a light to see by.
Director Mark Travis...
Linda is one of the most generous and insightful story and script consultants I have ever met. It takes a special talent to be able to address, critique and analize another person's writing without damaging the spirit and passion of the writers. Linda has that very special talent. Linda and I have consulted together on projects here in the States as well as overseas. And again I am impressed with her unique talents, insights and patience. (Mark Travis is a director and directing teacher and has given directing seminars and classes around the world.)
Writer Sharon Cobb...
If you want to take the bullet train to Hollywood, hire Linda Seger as a script consultant. I'd written five scripts using Linda's books as guides and then when I moved to LA Linda became my "go-to" analyst. I never sent a script to my agent or producers without Linda's detailed critiques first. Many times screenwriters are too close to their work to be objective, especially during the first few drafts. With Linda's help, I was able to elevate my work and began selling scripts. Now with several movies produced, I can highly recommend Linda Seger to anyone who is serious about selling their scripts to production companies or studios.

Writer David Gleeson...
I have worked with Linda on 4 screenplays now. I am always amazed and delighted at the new possibilities she opens up for me with her notes. I'm not exaggerating when I say she inspires me and drives me to produce the very best I am capable of. I'm dreading the day she hangs up her hat and retires from the biz. (David Gleeson, writer-director, WideEye Films, Dublin, Ireland. Credits include: Cowboys and Angels, The Front Line, etc.)
