WHEN WILL I GET MY SCRIPT?

As soon as I receive your payment (via credit card or by check or money order), the script is e-mailed to you.  If you are paying on the site, a download link is available to you when your card clears the system.  Look for it on the last page.  The e-mail that you receive will also have a download link near the bottom of the e-mail.

HOW DO I GET THE SCRIPT AND IN WHAT FORMAT?

You can download it from the site after you pay, and you will receive an e-mail that will have a download link to open a PDF file.  (Word format and RTF documents are available upon request for some of the scripts) You can save that file and print it. 

CAN I DOWNLOAD THE SCRIPT FROM YOUR SITE?

Yes.  Once you have made your payment by credit card, the final page will show your statement and there will be a "download link" in red or blue letters that you may click to open the document in PDF format.  That same link will be in the email that will be sent to you. 

CAN I GET A HARD COPY MAILED TO ME?

Yes. If you pay an additional $6, then I will print off a copy of the script and put it in a little folder and send it to you via Priority Mail. Express mail would be $18, and if you live outside the U.S., please contact me for the rates. To pay the fee by credit card, go to https://www.paypal.com

CAN I WRITE A CHECK OR MONEY ORDER?

Yes. Send the check or money order to Warren Sager, 3316 Lou Ct, Murfreesboro, TN 37129 

CAN I GIVE YOU MY CREDIT CARD NUMBER OVER THE PHONE?

Yes.  I use a secure system.   Authorize.Net is a service of Wells Fargo Bank.  Call me at 615-907-6317

WHAT CHOICES DO I HAVE IF I WANT TO PAY BY CREDIT CARD?

If you use the shopping cart on my secure site, Authorize.Net will handle the transaction.  If you prefer to use PayPal, that option is available to you.  Also, an e-check is another option through PayPal.

WHAT IF I CAN'T GET MY CREDIT CARD TO GO THROUGH?

Please contact me by phone at 615-907-6317, and I will try to enter your card for you.  Also, you can try using PayPal by going to https://www.paypal.com and send the payment to my e-mail address: warren@scriptsbywarren.com, or I can send a money request from PayPal. Often times that will work.  Please do not keep trying the exact same thing over and over if your card is declined.  Authorize.Net charges me for each try.  Make sure the address you enter is the same address that goes with the card you are using.  In other words, always use the billing address, not the shipping address.  If I do need to ship you something, you can give me that address later.

CAN I MAKE COPIES OF THE SCRIPT, OR DO I NEED TO ORDER MORE COPIES?

Just order and pay for only one copy and then make as many copies as you need. 

ARE THERE ROYALTY FEES TO PAY?

If you sell tickets, then I am to receive a royalty payment of 5% of the total box office receipts. 

CAN I READ THE SCRIPT BEFORE PAYING FOR IT?

I would be happy to let you read more of the script, but I do not allow a complete reading of the script before payment, because I would have to send the entire script in order to do that... and being that it is just a file, there is no way to protect myself. However, I do send more scenes to read if you like. Let me know... I can send the ending and the beginning for you, so you can get a clearer picture of the play. 

IF I AM UNCERTAIN WHETHER A SCRIPT IS GOING TO WORK FOR ME, CAN I GET MORE INFORMATION ABOUT IT?

Yes. I would be glad to answer any questions that you have about the script. Feel free to call me at my home in TN at 615-907-6317 or email me and we can talk about the play. To read what others have said about my work, go to the testimonial page. 

HOW MUCH WOULD IT COST TO HAVE YOU WRITE A CUSTOM SCRIPT FOR ME?

It would depend on the difficulty of the subject matter, whether research is needed (ie: true or historical subjects), if a lot of re-writes are needed, and how long it takes me to write it. Taking all of that into consideration, I basically base my fees on a scale of how long the script is. For instance, an hour long script would start at $200, and a 15 minute sketch would start at $50. A pre-payment of $25 is required before I begin any custom project. This goes toward your final payment. 

HOW LONG WOULD IT TAKE TO WRITE A CUSTOM SCRIPT?

That would depend on whether I am working on any at the time and if there is research to do or not. Normally, with no other projects going, I can put an hour script together in just a few weeks or less. 

WHAT IF I AM NOT HAPPY WITH THE SCRIPT WHEN YOU FINISH?

As I write a scene, I will send it to you for your approval. If you like what I have done so far, then I will continue. If you want changes, I will make them. I try to keep the storyline and flow of the script to what you are wanting. I want you to be happy with the final result.

WHO HAS THE RIGHTS TO THE SCRIPT ONCE IT IS FINISHED?

Normally, I will retain all the rights.  Once the play is finished and I have been paid, then I will probably add the script to my website if I think it is something that others might want.  I don't believe I charge enough for anyone else to keep the rights to it.  We can discuss these matters if you like.

WILL THERE BE STAGE NOTES INCLUDED IN THE SCRIPT THAT I PURCHASE?

There are usually very few stage notes. Some of my customers have great resources and others are very limited. I mostly focus on the dialogue and let the director imagine the set and the props and the blocking of the play. I would be happy to make suggestions. 

DO YOU HAVE ANY MUSIC IN YOUR PLAYS?

Very little. I wrote one song for the Children's Christmas play, "Children of Bethlehem" which is included, but otherwise, only suggestions of songs are made. I might suggest an old hymn or Christmas carol that is in the public domain. If you want to add songs on your own, you may feel free to do so. 

CAN I MAKE CHANGES TO YOUR SCRIPT?

Please contact me with the changes that you would like to make. Usually, it is not a problem. I understand that sometimes you need to cut out or add characters or change it to fit your situation better. I do not want the theological message changed so that it no longer reflects my personal beliefs about scripture. 

I PAID FOR MY SCRIPT, WHY HAVE I NOT RECEIVED IT?

It is quite possible that there is a problem. Many times the emails are incorrect, or they come back as undeliverable. I am probably waiting for you to contact me. Please send a different email address that I can use, or call me at 615-907-6317. 

CAN I GET A REFUND ON MY PURCHASE?

Generally, no; because the script is emailed to you and is only a file. It isn't like a book that can be returned. That is why I will be happy to allow you to read more excerpts from the script before you buy. If there are special circumstances, please contact me.

IF I AM FROM A COUNTRY OTHER THAN THE U.S.A., AM I ABLE TO ORDER FROM THIS SITE?

Yes!  You may use your credit card and the process should work.  I accept payment from a large number of countries.  If it does not work, please call me at 615-907-6317 and we can try it over the phone, or you may try using your credit card on PayPal by going to https://www.paypal.com and sending payment to my email address: warren@scriptsbywarren.com or email me and I can try doing a request for payment through PayPal.  If nothing else will work, I can take an international money order for the amount of the order in U.S. funds mailed to me.  Don't give up.  I want to get your script to you.
