Via a tip from @Nikyatu here are “The 11 Laws of Great Storytelling”. Despite the dogmatic title I thought maybe there’s some gems here you might find useful.
Here’s an excerpt from the list:
1. Assume everyone has ADD
2. Spend most of your time on the first ten pages of your script
3. Write roles to attract movie stars
4. Write economically
5. Make sure every character has a unique voice
Check out the rest of the tips here from Jeffrey Hirschberg
“In the heart of Alabama wiregrass country, a mother haunted by prescient visions of the future struggles to find hope and the strength to live again after the sudden death of one of her children just days before 9/11.”
