Audrey Knox makes a great point, Adam Brandt. I make my dramatic question specific. I write a dramatic question for each storyline in a script.

Dan MaxXx You have to know what you sell really well! Medical Tool Salesmen often perform surgeries to show Doctors how to use new tools. It's similar with reps, they've gotta know story inside and out to be able to properly pitch various materials to studio producers. Some people just love dissecting story, while it's a lot harder to sit down and write and nail it!
Everyone in this industry, from studio head on down to the craft table is a certified screenwriting genius. Except for the writers of course. They have no idea what they're doing.
