Alessandra is thinking about the busy writer, the writer
who doesn't have time to sit down every day and write
their novels or screenplays. Some of us actually have a
day job to pull, but also have the aspirations to write
a screenplay. Too often have I've heard someone who
aspired to create their own screenplay but just didn't
have the time or drive. Alessandra takes that aspiration
and fuels it with the ability to write a screenplay in
ten minutes at a time. Not only that, but she also
teaches you to micro-manage your tasks and create small
windows of opportunities to write your scripts within
the ten minutes that can guarantee you a perfect script
you always envisioned from the get go. Where to go from
there that's up to you, but getting the script done is a
step forward.
Picking
up the book will cost you ten minutes and fifteen bucks,
matched with the ten minutes reading each chapter, along
with the ten minutes writing the script after reading
the chapters for ten minutes and you have a mathematical
formula I couldn't possibly figure out but is
nonetheless an approach toward accomplishing the goal to
get a script done. "The Coffee Break Screenwriter"
actually does have some useful tips for the time
crunched aspiring writer, and Alessandra shows the
reader how to take these seemingly large tasks and bring
them in to a world filled with memos, notes where broad
characters can be turned in to complex and
multi-dimensional individuals during a process of fine
tuning and re-writing, all of which can be done with the
tasks conveyed toward the reader who may find the tasks
so useful they'll move on to task two immediately after
task one has been completed. I had a good time reading
"The Coffee Break Screenwriter" as it genuinely has a
service to contribute to aspiring screewriters out there
looking to get a screenplay off the ground in the middle
of their workaday world where they're in need of
something more beyond monotony. |
