jdubya, one more book I'd recommend to put off actual writing is:
'The Devils Guide to Hollywood' by Joe Eszterhas (Basic Instinct; Jagged Edge; Flashdance etc.) Couldn't put it down, and still delve now and then. Some great Zsa Zsa Gabor quotes.
Incidentally, Robert McKee is mentioned numerous times in this book... Mr Eszterhas isn't a fan of his it seems - here's one extract:
"The New Yorker wrote (about Mr McKee's seminars):'McKee, who used to be an actor, rarely speaks a sentence that does not call for a word so stressed that he bares his teeth'"
