Dear Writers,
If your planning to submit a scirpt for consideration, please think of the industry reader's sitting at there desks wandering what they did too deserve the castigation of halving to decode you're typos.
Please remember how frustrating it was to read that sentence. Please run spellcheck, but don't blindly trust it. Please learn the difference between your and you're (and all the other homophone sets). Please stop making plurals into possessives. Please don't use a thesaurus to find replacement words that you can't actually define. And please, for the love of all that is holy, understand that pass, past, and passed are not interchangeable regardless of how you (incorrectly) pronounce them when you speak.
No one will hire you as a writer if you can't do some basic proofreading.
All best,
Every Assistant Ever
