Summary: Next Stop...Hollywood!
Review: "Hollywoodaholic, Confessions of a Screenwriter" is the tale of one man's dream of making it in Hollywood. Recounted from a journal-like approach, "Hollywoodaholic" is an inspirational and educational vehicle for the professional and the amateur alike. While the book may be somewhat of a Hollywood career guide, the "novel" also reads like one of the author's own extraordinary blockbuster movie adventures!

Summary: Old College Roomate
Review: Wayne and I were roomates during our college years at University of Miami. I personally watched him in the beginning as he focused on his dream, and can say that he tried as hard as anyone could to write and develop great screenplays. I was glad to see he has written a book of his experiences and can say it is truly revealing of an incidious industry, where talent does not always rise to the top. In hopes that you may read this, please contact me at "[e-mail]" Hope to hear from you.

Summary: A writer comes of age.
Review: When you read between the sometimes funny, often poignant lines of "Hollywoodaholic," you realize that it is actually a coming of age story. The protagonist, the wayward screenwriter Wayne Carter, through the use of letters written to his loved ones over a 20 year period, shows us how he learned and grew from the ups and downs, loves and losses of his life in the movie business. As you read his letters, you can see his progress as a writer, a man, a friend, a son, a husband, and ultimately, a father. While striving for something just out of reach, he learns over time to trust God and to trust what he has in his hands. At the end of the book, though not the end of his journey, you find that he has found peace. You may also find that while reading the book, you took his journey with him.
