There’s a wealth of screenwriting advice on the Internerd. Too much, if anything. Every once in a while, something gets posted that’s really important and very well put. Check out the article by Barri Evins at Script:
“Tell the damned story.” — Tom Clancy
“[That] has certainly been on my mind lately as I read scripts…and can’t tell you what they were about. I’m supposedly a pitching expert…and yet I couldn’t pitch some of these stories to you if my life depended on it. Coming up with a logline for them is nearly impossible.”

I’ve heard it said recently that if you can’t write a decent logline for your story, there’s something fundamentally wrong with it.
