Book Reviews of How to Write a Movie in 21 Days: The Inner Movie MethodBook Review: If you can't get past page 60... Summary: 5 Stars
I am a working screenwriter, and this is the only screenwriting book I recommend. Why? Most of the screenwriting books out there are very useful - for rewriting. This book actually gets you to complete the first draft - a huge hurdle for beginning writers. You probably won't finish in 21 days, and the draft you write probably won't be very good. But that doesn't matter, because you will finish a draft, and then you can rewrite it and make it good.
I still use this book to clarify my thinking, or if I'm on a tight deadline.
Book Review: Spiritual Methoud to ScreenWriting That Works! Summary: 5 Stars
This book and it's method is fantastic and relative to the professional writer still waiting on the big break and the beginer still just wishing...Sit down, read it, then do the work. You won't even notice what a better person you'll become in the process...and the side effect is becoming a better writer. I keep this book by my bedside and in every luggage...Luck has nothing to do with writing a great script. It's all about; a good idea and an even better technique...This book will help you discover how YOU can get both.
Book Review: The only screenwriting course you need Summary: 5 Stars
HOW TO WRITE A MOVIE IN 21 DAYS take the complete novice to a level of competency I never thought possible from a single book. It is clear, concise and very readable. It is must reading for anyone who wants to learn how screenplays get done. Master the contents of this book before reading any other book on screenwriting. After reading this book and applying its contents, I did not read the Screenwriting for Dummies book I bought because I already had all the skills and information I needed on the subject.
Book Review: So far it's a wonderful book! Summary: 5 Stars
I am almost finished with this book, and so far it has been amazing! All of the information has been really helpful when it comes to actually starting and getting a script written. And the author knows exactly what a person reading that book is going through. It feels like the author had interviewed me for an hour about writing and my plans for my script before writing this book and giving it to me. Very great book! I recommend it to anyone who wants to get into screenplay writing.
Book Review: A great read Summary: 4 Stars
Don't let the title fool you: this is not one of those "get rich quick" type books. Ms. King is not saying you can write a quality movie in 21 days. If you follow the principles of this book you will have a first draft that won't get bogged down and your rewrite will be a lot easier. Writing is rewriting. What this book teaches you to do is to get a great start on a rough first draft in 21 days so you can get on with the business of honing and perfecting your story and characters.
