Dramatica for Screenwriters
by Armando Saldaña Mora

Welcome to the preview of the preliminary version of "Dramatica for Screenwriters," a new book written by Armando Saldaña Mora (creator of "Instant Dramatica") and produced by Write Brothers, Inc.

Unlike the Dramatica Theory Book which focuses on nature of the Dramatica theory of story, "Dramatica for Screenwriters" is more of a "how-to" book for screenwriters. Here's how Armando describes the book:

It fundamentally covers the practical use of Dramatica and the art of screenwriting.  Content-wise, this is somehow similar to what I've done at the Dramatica list --and what has proved to work and got popular amongst Dramatica users: creative approaches, comprehensive exercises and illustrative explanations.  Style-wise it has a personal experience style: a more this is what works for me instead of the This Is The Word Of God style favored by authors like [fill-in-your-favorite-Hollywood-story-guru-here].

It's important to note that this is a preliminary version of the book. There was some editing and revisions made tothese materials before the book went to print.

NOTE: Use the arrows on the left side of the pages to navigate through the online book. They'll appear when you go to the book pages.
