Solving Your Script: Tools and Techniques for the Playwright
Solving Your Script is a hardheaded approach to solving technical problems in scripts. In down-to-earth chapters, award-winning playwright and screenwriter Jeffrey Sweet introduces tools enabling writers to:
write exposition using the future tense
make characters vivid even before they appear
find the idiosyncrasies in a character that will generate story
Each chapter includes a discussion of a particular technique, followed by an assignment from Sweet's workshop and scenes written by his colleagues and students. There are also detailed discussions of what works in the scenes, what is problematic, and why.
