Unbelievably helpful already in just 22 pages. I LOVE the emphasis on truth and humanity and the core of what makes life real. Storyteller must examine the very essence of human existence, and that is what is so exciting and challenging. Especially, as McKee points out, in a world with a decreasing supply of shared truths.
Incredible synergy with everything I’ve learned in Freedom in American Society and school.

Rich storytelling information and analysis easily understood, endlessly truthful. Invaluable insights into structure and genre and how to tell something truthfully, how you must know your world, and how you must and can avoid clichés.
I particularly enjoyed how McKee delves into to every aspect of the Story Triangle and gives it equal weight while pushing everyone to master the Archplot for practical reasons.

It also helped me brainstorm SO MUCH for my ideas regarding The Blue Stone script. Hoping I’ll be able to bring them to life on the big screen someday soon!
