The Dramatic Writer's Companion, Second Edition

The publication of The Dramatic Writer's Companion in 2009 cemented Will Dunne's reputation as a master teacher of playwrights, screenwriters, and anyone working on dramatic scripts. Divided into three major sections on character, scene, and story, the book consists of more than 60 exercises to help writers zero in on and solve specific problems in their scripts. The success of that book has led Dunne to write a sequel, with new workshop-tested exercises that address additional issues in script development. This new edition of The Dramatic Writer's Companion is fully linked to the sequel and allows readers to find related exercises of interest in the new volume, though it can also still be used as a stand-alone resource.
