      For ScreenwritersHow To Write Screenplays and Scripts

 The concept states who the hero 
      or heroine of the story is and what he or she wants to achieve.
The characters are those 
      metaphors that behave like people inside the universe of the story.
Plot and structure 
      manages events and their timing in that universe, the spine of the story.
Scenes are made of description, 
      dialog, and action, and are containers for the story's progress.
A Book or Screenplay's 
      Purpose
The screenplay has to 
      inspire emotion in its readers, and, later (as a movie), in its audience. 
      To accomplish this, there has to be a relatable, admirable, or sympathetic 
      character who is either just plain good at what he does (James Bond), or 
      overcomes desperate and dangerous (physical or psychological) obstacles to 
      achieve what he or she is desperately driven to want (Dorothy, THE WIZARD 
      OF OZ.)
Book or Screenplay Story ConceptWhat if...? 
      
Every book storyline 
      should begin with that question. What is the story concept.
For instance:
What if people could project their minds into the internet 
      and combat AI agents and viruses in a mirror-world of this one?
      Omniverse.
What if the Fountain Of Youth were real and you could live 
      forever?
What 
      if there was a love story with the sinking of the Titanic as a background 
      and container?
What if you did a remake of Demon With A Glass Hand, 
      about a humanoid machine that comes from the future to terminate a woman 
      of this time period.
Letting your imagination work 
      on such questions should bring you to a story or character worthy of your 
      ideas.
      
Write one brief sentence that describes your storyline: My Script 
      is about a _____ who __________________.
My Script is about a 
      burned out ex cop who becomes a private eye.
Then, let your characters fill in the details of the plot. 
      What motivates them? What drives them? What do they want? What blocks or 
      hinders them? Who or what is in their way? 
      
Why don't they just "walk away" from it all; what binds and glues them 
      to the struggle?
Meld events, character, and action. They will 
      drive each other forward into the story.

      
      How To Write A Book or Screenplay
Carry a notebook or 
      index cards and a pen for your screenplay. Watch EVERYWHERE for ideas, dialogue, and 
      scenes, but only for those that will advance and move your plot 
      and characters forward into the story.
