January 21, 2012 – Cracking the Story Code

In this session of the Scriptwriters Network, James Bonnet will present a preview of his forthcoming book, Cracking the Story Code, and describe the hidden structures all great stories have in common.

James Bonnet will talk about the enormous power possessed by these hidden patterns and reveal how screenwriters and novelists can use this new story knowledge to transform their original ideas into successful stories that make a powerful psychological connection and have universal appeal.

James Bonnet is an internationally known writer, teacher and story consultant.

He was elected twice to the Board of Directors of the Writers Guild of America and has written or acted in more than forty television shows and features.

The important new ideas about story in the second edition of his book, Stealing Fire From The Gods: The Complete Guide to Story for Writers and Filmmakers, are having a major impact on writers in all media.

His new book, Cracking the Story Code, will be ready for publication in the fall of 2012.
