I am a student and protege of Scott Sedita's and I consulted with him about putting this up on Wikipedia, and he gave me his blessings. I have written it in my own words, which is why I believe Woogee can find it on a search, but not find the exact words used. I tried to be complete in detailing the book, so I do allow that maybe some of what I have written could be considered copyright, but I tried to do it in my words with the permission of the author. Most of the terminology listed in the article are words and characters that were created by Scott Sedita, and therefore are probably the reasons for the search confusion. However, many of these terms are entering the lexicon of Hollywood and are being used by casting and writers and directors. So, I felt the liberty to list them here. This is my first time creating an article, so I do allow that I may be doing things wrong, but from all the instructions given from the article wizard, I believed this to be safe and appropriate. thanks.
