FX buys a thriller script. Many people were interested in Stephen's script but FX was more interested in it. The script was about a murder and a cover up. Stephen started off as a play writer and wrote the movie "Tape, The Laramie Project and Match". He is currently writing on 60 minute segment. He works with many different companies. Shows buy his scripts as well.
This article caught my eye because I am not a great writer and knowing that someone else did a good job and sold many scripts to different people is good. I would like to be a good writer one day. This is an impact to a student because they know that if they can major in English they might have a good career by writing scripts. This article makes an impact to a future film maker because it shows then that they can buy and write stories and can sell them or buy them. If they don't want a writer for their own company then can get writers that don't work for any companies. This can impact a consumer because they can look into writers that are good at what they do. Will Stephen Belber become one of the best writers? Will this script that he just sold be big? What else will he write?

This is really interesting because people can really make money off of this. You should really look into this since you are a good writer.
