Lou Grantt
I bid you welcome to my storefront. Over the months and years to come, I hope to share much of my writing with you, both fiction and non-fiction.
My background is in the entertainment industry. I spent a dozen years in and around Hollywood as a script consultant. I worked to improve the screenplays of novices and professional screenwriters alike. For six years, I was also publisher and editor of the industry's only trade paper entirely dedicated to screenwriting, Hollywood Scriptwriter, giving me a unique perspective on the art, craft and marketing of scripts to television and film.
Please feel free to email me with comments at any time. Thank you for visiting! - Lou

Driftwood, Afloat On An Ocean Of Eclectica

The 1960s and 70s fondly remembered in a collection of short stories, poems and songs that reflect the tumultuous times that our country and its young people were going through.

At The Lake
Set amidst the turbulent times of the late sixties, this beautifully honest novel brings the period to life - from the clothing and music of the day to the controversies and personal choices surrounding the country's involvement in Viet Nam. Virginia McNally must choose the path her life will take - a path that leads to love with one of the two men who pursue her, or the path to her truest love, classical music. And both paths tarry for a while in a little resort town called Greenwood Lake, where Virginia and her friends escape the realities of unhappy lives by overindulging in the proverbial sex, drugs and rock & roll.
"Lou Grantt writes of love and loss with humor, wit, and charm. Her characters populate a landscape so rich with details of time and place that the reader is captured by every page. Historical (1960s) fiction, romance, coming of age--this book delivers and satisfies."
- Dr. Cyd Ropp, Professor of Speech Communications, College of the Siskiyous.

The Bumpy Road To Buying And Building Our Manufactured Home
Building this house was the biggest project of our lives. I kept a blog through most of it and many who read it suggested that I make it into a book. This is not a how-to book (although perhaps at times a how-not-to book.) This chronicles our unique experiences in this adventure. It also includes a few blog entries from our personal lives, to flesh out the journey a bit. It's a fun story, actually, with over 50 full color photos. Enjoy.

7 Unconventional Ways To Sell Your Screenplay To Hollywood!
No need to get an agent! There are other ways to break in and sell your scripts. And you can do it from wherever you live - Ada, Ohio or Fairbanks, Alaska. These seven tips can lead you to that first sale, by helping you to think outside the box and color outside the lines. As a former script consultant and publisher/editor of Hollywood Scriptwriter, I know the business inside and out. It's tougher to break into Hollywood than it is to break out of Alcatraz. But there are secrets, things you can do for yourself to make the task a lot easier. This book can get you started in that direction with concrete advice for doing things that you probably haven't considered. These things have worked for many other people. Give them a try and they could work for you too.
