Screenwriter Description from Wikipedia for those that don't know what a
screenwriter is:

Screenwriters or scenarists or scriptwriters are people who write/create the
short or feature-length screenplays from which films and television programs
are based.

Many screenwriters start their careers writing on speculation (spec), meaning
they write without being hired or paid for it. When such a script is Many of
them also work as "script doctors", attempting to better a script to suit the
desires of a director or studio. For instance, studio management may have a
complaint that the motivations of the characters are unclear or that the
dialogue is weak.

Script-doctoring can be quite lucrative, especially for the better known
writers. David Mamet and John Sayles, for instance, fund the movies they
direct themselves, usually from their own screenplays, by writing and
doctoring scripts for others. In fact, some writers make very profitable
careers out of the script doctoring food chain, being the ninth or tenth
writer to work on a piece; in many cases, working on projects that never see
exposure to an audience of any size. Script doctoring companies, also known as
script consultancies, are also often used by directors, production companies
and individual screenwriters. These usually do not offer full re-writes, but
are used when a production company or an individual requires feedback on
whether or not a script is marketable, how it can be improved, and whether or
not it holds any potential for development.

Some screenwriters have also found work by selling a treatment (approximately
10-30 pages) or synopsis (usually 1-2 pages), of their screenplay even if it
isn't completed yet. This is, however, rare among all screenwriters but
success is far more likely for writers with more established careers and
contacts in the film and television industry. For some screenwriters, pairing
with an industry-based representative, such as a producer, director, talent or
literary agent or studio executive, will yield successful movement of their
material. These partnerships will often pitch their project to investors or
others in a position to further a potential project. Once the script is sold
the writer only has the rights that were agreed with the purchaser. [1] A
screenwriter becomes credible once their work is recognized, giving the writer
the opportunity to earn a higher income.[1] One of the most important elements
in bringing an idea to fruition for a studio to produce is attaching the right
screenwriter to the project.
