Try A Workbook For Screenwriters To Make A Better Plot

By Rebecca Williams


A lot of times, a person may see a TV or big screen movie and have their own ideas about how the storyline could be much better. They may even entertain the idea of screenwriting until they realize all that is entailed. At this point, they realize that the writing process can be draining, even with an original plot idea. It is common for a writer to come charging out of the gate by jotting down details, the perfect dialogue, and settings but get stuck at the midway point. Other times, the story may be intriguing but the flow may need improvement. Choosing a workbook for screenwriters may provide solutions that can take months to correct.

Sometimes an exciting plot visualized in the head of a new writer can be confusing to the reader if there is no construction or the thoughts suddenly run dry. This happens often and sometimes it can come without warning. However, there are some ways to use workbooks so that a person keeps their words authentic.

The first thing is to get an understanding of the characters. Their habits, attire, and their approach to everyday matters should be defined clearly in the first few chapters. Workbooks are great for developing main and supporting characters, especially if there is a climactic scene that affects the final outcome.

Some people may see workbooks as being inauthentic but these can save time and help to break writer blocks. If a person has an original story idea, having a strong resource that inspires creativity can actually save time. For those who have other obligations, this is better than attending live courses and cost a lot less.

Whether the writer chooses to use a hard copy book or software, using this does not make them less authentic. Although some new writers may have influences that have a great impact on their voice, it is their responsibility to create a unique selling point that agents and studios will find interesting. Sometimes this takes a few years of steady writing to develop and make marketable.

Keeping things original can be a tough job, which is why some writers will take a vacation from the process after so many months. While they may not go away from home, life happens and sometimes, it will force the writer to take a time out from their latest work. Upon return, many say that they feel refreshed and find the revisions they make end up working out for the best.

Even after the wordsmith has put their all into a story they feel is unique, something may be missing. While there is no single approach to cleaning up clutter, most every writer finds themselves doing it before the final draft. In order to keep those creative juices flowing, taking time away with a promise to return by a certain date may be the best solution.

When a writer is open to doing research while working on their manuscript, this can work to their advantage also. There are workbooks that show how to get the right information quickly and can provide a wealth of information on various time periods. In order to become a good writer in any genre, finding inspiration and building on its foundation can help one create stories that are out of this world.
