It's great to get a new set of tools, and Jeff Kitchen will give them to you in this book, a distillation of his popular L.A. writing course. Most compelling for me is his use of dilemma. If you ramp up the stakes on the dilemma, your script will already be so much more dramatic. Also interesting are his use of Bartlett's and the Enneagram. I have the very first edition of this book, hot off the press, complete with typos. If this new edition is the same, then in the 2nd part of the book, he develops an original screenplay using his techniques. Very helpful to see an actual application of theory. (via Jeff Kitchen)
