New Books from the Brothers Rubin




After a good few months of fraternal effort, Danny and I are about to release our first eBooks. Coming out this week is Danny's How To Write Groundhog Day, a journey from his idea to the big screen. According to the description:
Follow this unique screenplay’s exciting journey through agents, directors, studios, stars and the writer’s own confused brain to emerge as one of the most delightful and profoundly affecting comedies of all time. For movie lovers and screenwriters alike, How To Write Groundhog Day includes the original screenplay, notes, scene sketches, and a personal tour of the Hollywood writing process from this popular screenwriting teacher.
Soon thereafter I'll be releasing my hardback DROIDMAKER. (It's crazy that the monochromatic two pound $40 hardback is about to become a wonderfully portable, color $10 ePub.) Better AND cheaper. How often can you say that? Just being able to search it for topics of interest is remarkable. Seeing the color photos alone is worth the price of admission. Getting the whole shebang.... priceless! If you are interested in movies, technology or startups... you're going to love this.

In the meantime, read "How to Write Groundhog Day." It's funnier.

Are the books available in iPad compatible format?

Yes -- soon. Waiting for Apple to process the files. Amazon posts in a few hours; B&N too. Apple... 3-4 days... But yes, the iBook version is coming shortly.
