Definitely going to check this script book out! I just finished "Watership Down" for the first time ever, and never has a story made me zoom out and start analyzing the craft of writing in that way before—which surprised me to no end because adventuring rabbits are the last subject in the world to which I am drawn. Anyway, it made me want to do a deep dive into story structure, and this sounds like a perfect book to start with.
Fantastic! I would also suggest Robert McKee’s book, “Story” (mentioned in my genre notes). Combined with the Linda Seger, you’d have the sources for a great self-taught course on story structure.
These notes are great! And thanks for the mention. I’m going to share this with my friends right now. Thanks for putting this all together. Very helpful.
