THE ROLE OF AUDIENCE

 
The question, 'to whom is my story addressed?' is probably the most important question most screenwriters never ask themselves, let alone answer. You wouldn't write an email to nobody, so why would you write a poem or a screenplay to nobody? To write with sensitivity and respect for your audience is to be open to the ways in which your story can make someone else emotionally, politically, and psychologically more open - in short, more aware and more tolerant.
