In Story, McKee expands on the concepts he teaches in his $450 seminars (considered a must by industry insiders), providing readers with the most comprehensive, integrated explanation of the craft of writing for the screen. No one better understands how all the elements of a screenplay fit together, and no one is better qualified to explain the "magic" of story construction and the relationship between structure and character than Robert McKee.

What Customers Say About Story: Substance, Structure, Style and The Principles of Screenwriting:

It was recommended for me by a SToryteller to help me look at how my storytelling could be even better. Easty to understand, well-written, and you'll think of all the films and stories you've ever seen and be a better judge. This book is great for story writers. This book can help anyone who wants to see in their minds and in their writing and through their voice - a better story.

couldnt have asked for more. this product came in perfect shape and in a timely manner. thank you.

I ordered from thislocation becauseit is not far from NY. The book is in good condition. Therefore, if condition is whatmatters to you I recommend this seller, however, if tIme matters then I would think twice. My book arrived in good condition on the last possible day. My order was processed on the 25th of November and arrived on the 16th of December. However, given the te it took I feel surprised.

When I learned that best selling author Eric Jerome Dickey bought this book, I had to have it and knew whatever the price it had to be worth it. It's a book that must be on the desk of anyone sincere about their writing craft. I can't wait to attend one of McKee's live seminars.Author & Poet Rachel BerryFamily Pictures I understand why McKee is a king in the literary world. His direction, ideas and instructions are priceless to anyone soaked by the writing of words. It was and still is a tool I will continue to re-read and implement into my writing.

hehe.The insights he brings to the table about story and how it is crafted has completely altered the way I see every piece of media that ends up in my DVD player, on the big screen, in audio, or in the written word.What a remarkable book. McKee is obviously a demigod of creative writing and to be perfectly honest. A spectacle to view, this book will inspire, offend, and completely deconstruct the power of stories with a kind of wisdom that can be found on a rare occasion.If you write and haven't read this. In the beginning he basically tells you that if you're not going to study your craft you're an idiot. A LOT better, even if it is incredible now. he has EVERY RIGHT to be a creative writing snob.

I would argue your writing could be better. When I first started to read/listen to this (I own both the book and audio book).I thought what a creative writing snob. But by purchasing the book you have already proven you will study it so why the heck would he bring that up.Well, as you read on you see very clearly that he can back up any bravado that spews from his lips. (I think the audio hits home more cleanly but the book is something else).If you LOVE story or just think it might be interesting this book will open your eyes to the power of words.
