WELCOME
After nine years in the driving seat, Julian (the Editor) and Jonquil (the Managing Editor) retired from TwelvePoint on 31 December 2010. We owe them a huge debt of thanks for pouring all of their time, energy, expertise and enthusiasm into setting up ScriptWriter Magazine and TwelvePoint.
Meanwhile life goes on and we're working on exciting plans for the future. We'll continue to make the site available to you gratis until we're ready to launch our new format.
Thank you for your interest and loyalty. We look forward to sharing our plans with you soon.
