## Description

desertcart.com: Save the Cat! Writes a Novel: The Last Book On Novel Writing You'll Ever Need: 9780399579745: Brody, Jessica: Books

Review: The Only Book On Novel Writing You Need. Period. - Of the countless author help books I have owned, none of them compares to Save the Cat! You will NOT walk away from this book still in a fog of understanding. Save the Cat! lays everything out for you, and in layman's terms. I highly recommend it. With that said, there is no harm in expanding upon the knowledge given in Save the Cat! especially if you are new to the craft or finding yourself still struggling. Personally, I use Save the Cat! as well as the online (YouTube) guidance of Abbie Emmons. Whatever works for YOU. But Save the Cat! is a great source to start your writing journey. The book, unlike so many others out there, walks you through the writing process step-by-step. Abbie Emmons and Save the Cat! are not affiliated, to be clear, just two remarkable sources to help crack the code.
Review: “Save the Cat Writes a Novel” is worth the price of admission. - This book is based on “Save the Cat Goes to the Movies” by Blake Snyder, which is based on “Screenplay” by Syd Field. Both of those books do a good job of laying out the basic structure of how to plot your novel. Both of those books are also a little light on filling in some of the grey areas on which that structure is based. They get you close to understanding their plotting technique, but don’t get you all the way across the finish line. If you have “Save the Cat Goes to the Movies” you may not need this book—it is very similar to Blake Snyder’s book. If you have “Save the Cat Goes to the Movies” and are still unsure about how to utilize Blake Snyder’s beat sheet to full effect—then you may be interested in what Jessica Brody does with the topic and may find it useful for filling in those grey areas. If you haven’t yet purchased either, then “Save the Cat Writes a Novel” by Jessica Brody is the book to get. At first I was annoyed when I purchased this book (e-book version) and flipped through it. It looked exactly the same as “Save the Cat Goes to the Movies”. The list of genres is exactly the same—just in a different order. But when I turned to the beat sheet section, is when I discovered that “Save the Cat Writes a Novel” is worth the price of admission. Brody does an excellent job of breaking down the purpose of each of the beats, rather than giving a vague definition that will still leave you confused. She explains in detail, gives examples, and introduces new ideas that provide both clarity and new understanding of plotting—especially to the function and purpose of the midpoint of the story. If you’ve had difficulty plotting and the other books on the subject just didn’t quite get you to where you needed to be, give “Save the Cat Writes a Novel” a chance. Jessica Brody will likely help you understand just how to plot that novel you’ve been working on.
