Description


People's lives are made up of good and bad
decisions, histories filled with triumph and pain, behaviors formed from a
lifetime of experiences -- your characters should be no different. But writing
psychologically complex characters requires an understanding of human behavior.
Fortunately, you don't need a PhD in psychology to add complexity to your
screenwriting. William Indick will help you add psychological depth to your
script with insights from brilliant psychological theorists like Freud, Jung,
and Adler. Get ready to create characters and conflict that will have your
audience begging for only one thing -- more.
