Here are painful, frustrating moments for writers: ''You
get a great idea for a screenplay, you sit down to write it, then about thirty
pages in, you’re lost;'' or you have a completed script that you leave
alone and when you go back to it after few months, it reads like “pure,
unadulterated crap.” Stuck! Learn to Love
Your Screenplay Again by Josh Miller is a game changer that is written
specifically for authors or screenwriters who are frustrated with their
inability to translate compelling ideas into writing that sell. Filled with moving
examples from popular movies, this book explains the techniques of the craft and
brings together the different elements that combine to provide stellar
screenwriting. The author walks readers through the process while identifying pain
points and showing readers how to proceed when the writing seems to lead
nowhere. This book has everything readers need to unlock their creative genius
when the writing becomes difficult and words are hard to find.
Stuck! Learn to Love
Your Screenplay Again by Josh Miller is the best thing I have read on the
writing craft and the author intelligently shows authors how to get unstuck, to
avoid letting their narrative to wander and to create characters that feel
authentic. Miller is a pro and he writes like a pro, articulating with
confidence and intelligence on characterization, effective setups and payoffs,
composing strong plot points, incorporating effective screenwriting techniques
like time locks, subplots, twists, flashbacks, and more. There is a lot to
learn from this book, and not only for screenwriters, but for any author who
wants to take their writing to the next level. What makes the book remarkable
is the author's ability to communicate with clarity while keeping the voice
engaging and upbeat and the research that brings in interesting and compelling
examples from popular movies. Miller makes it feel like screenwriting is fun
and he provides tools for readers to unfold with. Read this book before you
write your next word!
