Sample text
For each new project, I open a new file and title it THEME. I go back to this file over and over. ” It’s hard. I have written more than one novel all the way through before I could answer that question. ” and had them stare back blankly. Even Chayefsky, peerless as he was, struggled with this.

But in the 50s and early 60s, as I said, every self-respecting country club had a caddie master, a caddie shack, and 50 to 100 full-time caddies. Some caddies care only about money. They want two loops a day. Others are killing time over the summer. Some loopers are drunks, some are semi-pro poker players; others are slackers and stoners.
