They
say you can’t learn screenwriting from a

were right—until

THE SECRET TO WRITING EXTRAORDINARY SCREENPLAYS
Whether you're a beginning
screenwriter or an A-list Academy Award
winner, all writers struggle with the same thing: to
get to the great script inside.
Step
by step, Inside
Story: The Power of the
Transformational Arc guides you through an
extraordinary new process
that helps identify your thematic intention—what your story
is really about—and teaches you how to turn that intention
into the driving force behind all your creative choices. The result is
a profound relationship between the movement of the
plot and the internal development of character, which is the foundation
for the transformational
arc. The
transformational
arc is the deeper line of structure found inside the story. Knowing how
to work with the arc enhances your ability to:
- Express your
unique point of
view
- Give meaning and
urgency to
the line of action
- Infuse your
characters with
richness, subtlety, and surprise
- Develop a
powerful emotional
undercurrent
- Make your
stories stand out
and get attention
A
strong transformational arc is
the single most important element that
makes the difference between a good screenplay and a
great one.
Inside
Story
delivers
what the name implies: it's the real inside scoop on how to write a
great screenplay with depth,
dimension, and substance. It is a must-have for any serious
screenwriter, playwright, or novelist.
