How do you write a script in 21 days, while you're reading the book on how to do it? King gives exercises to find your inner story and get it down before your inner critic has a chance to sabotage the project. She shares tips on recognizing how your life issues play into your themes, the mechanics of script writing, how to deal with writers block, and life issues for being a screenwriter and living with one, or how to be pleasant while you're wresting your life story to paper. It isn't intended to ... Read More
Rating: - Follow this book, don't just read it.
I bought this book from Amazon in July. I have made 2 feature length films before, but these were mostly improvised (Horror! - Gold Edition and Capitalism - The Movie, both available on DVD at Amazon). I fancied actually writing a movie before filming started!
As the book recommends, please actually write as you read.
Step by step, this book leads you, suprises you. By the end of 21 days you will be exhausted. And you will have a full length screenplay.

Rating: - You CAN write a movie in 21 days!
I tried to write a screenplay 10 years before I actually wrote one! This easy to follow, insightful and clever book both showed me how to begin and most importantly FINISH a screenplay! I've written 5 of them and have come very close to selling one! King is the Queen of script crafting. If you only READ ONE book on screenplays, I STRONGLY recommend this gem!The Green Room
Rating: - So far it's a wonderful book!
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.
Rating: - Best Resource I've ever used for scripts and even short stories. Ever!!
I've read many writing books and this is one that works for any type of writing. With this book, you can write a script or at least a decent rough draft in 21 days. I took a month and was able to do two drafts. One by hand and the other when I transferred the draft to computer. The author's warm and encouraging voice along with the way she breaks the task of writing a longer work are extremely helpful and motivating. I'd recommend this excellent, easy to read text to any of my writer friends and plan ... Read More
