THE ONLY SCREENWRITING SOFTWARE YOU NEED
THE ONLY SCREENWRITING SOFTWARE YOU NEED
PLOT CONTROL, by Mitchell German, is not a book. It’s a software program that is simple yet powerful in its ability to help a writer develop a tightly structured plot, theme, subplots and characters. And it’s just the first step of Mitchell’s screenplay writing technology. I find it invaluable in my writing and highly recommend it. It costs a bit more than a book but is worth every penny.
