The romance fiction industry thrives on relationship storytelling that titillates, enthralls, satisfies its aficionados. Here is a book that translates the principles of romantic fiction and research into a viable romantic screenplay for that box office hit that will be a must-see film. Explanations include the difference between a love story and a romance, the Relationship Plane, the Steps of Intimacy, romance's unique characterization requirements, romance as main plot vs. subplot and much more. What the Reviewers say ... "I plan to keep Romantic Screenplays 101 within reach on my desk at all times. Romantic Screenplays 101 should be a requirement in all writing classes and for all writers, both the novice and the professional. Ms. Walker's manual demonstrates step by step not only how to construct a romantic screenplay but, more importantly, why the writer constructs a romantic screenplay in this fashion. (The man who knows how will always have a job; the man who knows why will always be the boss.) I plan to source back to Romantic Screenplays 101 not only when I am caught in a quagmire of writing but also in my personal relationships-the book is just that downright invaluable in all areas." -Parris Afton Bonds, best selling author and one of seven founding members of RWA This title is published by The Fiction Works and is distributed worldwide by Untreed Reads.
