Karl not only encourages you to deliver emotional impact on as many pages as possible, he shows you how, offering you hundreds of dramatic techniques to take your writing to the professional level.

„Ich glaube an Werkzeuge, nicht an Regeln. Ich kann Ihnen zeigen, was in großartigen Drehbüchern funktioniert, wie fähige Autoren die Aufmerksamkeit des Lesers wecken und sie von Anfang bis Ende halten – mit einer großen Bandbreite von instinktgesteuerten Gefühlen über die gesamte Geschichte hinweg. Die einzige wichtige Regel ist, dass Ihr Drehbuch funktioniert. Mit anderen Worten: Es muss die Gefühle des Lesers erreichen. Das ist die einzige Regel in Hollywood, die keine Ausnahme duldet. Regeln, Prinzipien und Formeln handeln davon, was man machen muss. Handwerk und Techniken handeln davon, wie man es möglichst effektiv macht. Keine Seitenangaben – nur die grundlegen Werkzeuge des Geschichtenerzählens. Packen Sie sie in Ihren Werkzeugkasten und benutzen Sie sie nach Bedarf.“ .
