So before you head out to another hundred-dollar screenwriting conference to learn how to write a screenplay or buy another paint-by-the-numbers 3-act script formula give my book a try. I can’t guarantee you’ll sell your script.

Want to know how to write a script that people will remember, and can catch the attention of producers and other above-the-line talent? (Don't worry about agents; they don't want to talk to you). Nail your dialogue. Really. Now I know you've heard all the maxims: Film is a Visual Medium; You Can Either Write Dialogue or You Can't. And they both sound very logical. And esteemed writers, such as David Mamet, have been preaching them for years. But, in my not so humble opinion, they're both total bullcrap.

“Long live the King” hailed Entertainment Weekly upon publication of Stephen King’s On Writing. Part memoir, part master class by one of the bestselling authors of all time, this superb volume is a revealing and practical view of the writer’s craft, comprising the basic tools of the trade every writer must have. King’s advice is grounded in his vivid memories from childhood through his emergence as a writer, from his struggling early career to his widely reported, near-fatal accident in 1999—and how the inextricable link between writing and living spurred his recovery.

Unlistenable
What made the experience of listening to Screenwriting for Anyone the most enjoyable?
The book itself feels like it's written for beginners, which is great because it goes all the way down to how to handle a pitch meeting with a producer.
Would you be willing to try another one of Kelly Rhodes’s performances?
No. Never. Never ever. I'm am 99% convinced (not joking here) that this is a machine that reads text. Imagine the Google Maps voice or Siri reading a book to you. It's LITERALLY that robotic. I found it unlistenable.
Any additional comments?
Consider the book. Don't get this audiobook.

Goes right to the point
I love it. Finished the book in just one morning while sitting at work. I will definitely put into practice what I was taught in this book. It might be nice to also have some visual examples that mentioned. However now at least I have some terminology that I can google more examples on. Very informative highly recommend especially to those who know nothing about writing a screenplay

Robot Narrator
George Lucas my arse! I swear down, this whole text must be A.I. Generated and narrated by text to speak. I’m not saying it’s entirely un-useful… the info here is pretty standard but accurate enough… however, parts are repeated verbatim… cut and pasted from one book to another… very lazy… as is using Chat GPT to generate the content and text to speak to narrate. Not really worth the credit. Get a book that has been written by a person.

Not book is not Screenwriting for Anyone
This book is not what it says it is. The actual audio book is called 30 days screenwriting challenge. The book is not Screenwriting for Anyone! Completely scammed by audible on this one! I have it two stars rather than one because I did get some very basic tips from it.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 158
There are nearly 50,000 screenplays registered with the Writer’s Guild every year. And 99 percent of them suck. But they don’t have to. That’s why I decided to write this book. So before you head out to another hundred-dollar screenwriting conference to learn how to write a screenplay or buy another paint-by-the-numbers 3-act script formula give my book a try. I can’t guarantee you’ll sell your script.

There are three kinds of feelings when reading a story: boredom, interest, and wow! To become a successful writer, you must create the wow feeling on as many pages as possible, and this requires writing that engages the reader emotionally. In his best-selling book, screenwriter Karl Iglesias explored the working habits of A-list Hollywood scribes. Now, he breaks new ground by focusing on the psychology of the reader.
