First books I read on screenwriting, still have 'em.

The dude definitely helped shape a generation (if not more) of screenwriters. He had a good run, I reckon.

Upsetting, cats everywhere live in more fear now.

RIP sir.

I just started his books. Yesterday, actually.

Poor guy. At least he lived a good long life, changing the lives of and inspiring screenwriters and filmmakers everywhere.

He was a legend.

Wow!

He will be missed. I still have audio tapes of him from a class I took in Los Angeles. He really knew his stuff.
