Save the Cat! Writes a Novel

Great

The book is wonderful and talks about screenplay method to write your novel. Must have book for aspiring authors.

I can never repay my debt to this book, the author. A must if you want to dabble or excel in writing. Clear. Precise.

There are quite a few things, like creating believable characters, the break-in story, etc., that I learnt from the book. I also believe that even though I might not use the formula (or beatsheets) for plotting, after reading this book, writing a thriller or sci-fi doesn’t feel too daunting. Another side of the coin is, of course, the fact that sometimes, while watching a movie (like F1) or reading a book, like Project Hail Mary, I could make out the beats!

This is just as good as the og (for screen writing)

Anyone keen to learn how to write a novel...this book is it!

Best for new writers..

Sorry to bust put some bubbles here this book was not for me, spent a ridiculous amount to buy it but found other better author / mentors to give guidance, this lags practical working solutions & the way Snyder had done with movie examples it imitated same so it's not a original work at all, at one point the examples made me too nauseaus so had to abandon it, am looking forward to selling to anyone who ever wants a 2nd hand copy.
