Awesome information M. Morris After listening to the Audible version a few times, I wanted the Kindle version so I could go over some parts more carefully. I really love Blake Snyder's contribution to the writing craft. I use these techniques (primarily the 15 beats) for novel writing, rather than a screenplay. So this is helpful for books or scripts. I think you'll be happy you learned what Snyder teaches.. "Stronger stories = better movies (and books)." according to Ebony McKenna. Blake Snyder's Save The Cat! series really speaks to me. In this edition, he goes further into the revising stage of writing, where he helps writers understand feedback and use it to make their stories even stronger. As usual, I have a hard time seeing what's missing in my own work (no problem when I read someone else's though) and this book really helped me look at my story objectively and find ways to fix what wasn't working.I am deeply saddened that Blake Snyder is no longer with us, but these titles (and his screenplays) are an incredible legacy.. This has got to be one of the best books on screenwriting you can buy ampasstime This has got to be one of the best books on screenwriting you can buy. Blake Snyder was one of the most successful pitch men in Hollywood and he lays a lot of knowledge down in his Save The Cat series. I liked the first one so much, I loaned it to my writing partner and then we ended up buying all 3! It goes into everything about script writing from structure, plot and dialogue to pitching and selling your script. Blake has since passed away but he still have devotees who answer questions from budding writers who have just discovered their mentor. I recommend this series to ANY screenwriter - novice or advanced!!
