The Secrets of Story, Matt Bird

I got this free on Audible and I'm sharing because I had quite a few "AHA's" from it. He comes from a script writing background and uses a lot of films as examples to illustrate what he's saying but that works for me. I think the modern commercial style is one that needs to translate easily to film.

I mean it's always subjective, but this is where I got the image of the poor reader being on a plane then finding out their seat mate is the boring uncle from Derry Girls. This has remarkably concentrated my exposition.
