Super Structure represents over two decades of research on what makes a novel or screenplay entertaining, commercial, original, and irresistible. Contrary to what some may think, structure is not a nasty inhibitor of creativity. Quite the opposite. Properly understood and utilized, structure is what translates story into a form audiences are wired to receive it.

Most screenwriting books tend to focus on story structure, scene writing, navigating the business, and other parts of the craft that come after the initial choice of the central concept for a story. Multiple Emmy- and Golden Globe-winning writer/producer Erik Bork (HBO’s Band of Brothers) takes a different approach. His experience in the industry and as a screenwriting professor and coach have led him to recognize that it's the selection of the initial idea that is the most important part of the process - with the most impact on the project's chance of success.

There are three kinds of feelings when reading a story: boredom, interest, and wow! To become a successful writer, you must create the wow feeling on as many pages as possible, and this requires writing that engages the reader emotionally. In his best-selling book, screenwriter Karl Iglesias explored the working habits of A-list Hollywood scribes. Now, he breaks new ground by focusing on the psychology of the reader.

It's every novelist's greatest fear: pouring their blood, sweat, and tears into writing hundreds of pages only to realize that their story has no sense of urgency, no internal logic, and so is a page-one rewrite. The prevailing wisdom in the writing community is that there are just two ways around this problem: pantsing (winging it) and plotting (focusing on the external plot).

Excellent Delivery
Mr.Bell provides good information not only about craft, but also about both traditional and indie publishing. But I think that what really stood out for me was the multitude of interviews with current best selling authors such as Lee Childs and Larry Brooks. This is one that I will definitely be listening to again. It's going into my writer's toolbox--under motivation and advice. Lastly, but definitely not least, the narrator's performance was outstanding! I'm going to look for other books he narrated.

useful tips delivered with wit
I am able to listen to books while at my full-time day job. This title—written by the affable Mr. Bell, and narrated by the Mr. Basil—was a pleasure to listen to. I found myself bookmarking several parts of the book for later reference. Recommended listening for novices like myself. I would imagine that more advanced writers will benefit as well since Mr. Bell provides insights and tips into the craft, commitment, and art that has even more relevance now in the new age of digital publishing.

Good collection of essays for writers
This is a very solid collection of essays for writers. Del was a regular contributor to writers digest magazine and many of the topics here are quite good. Most are oriented towards fiction writers, especially genre novelists. There are also essays that are more motivational and about the publishing industry or self publishing.But as a collection it’s not as strong as similar books like Save the Cat, Story or those by Lawrence Block. But if you are a fan of Bell’s fiction or non-fiction then it is a no-brainer.

His usual crap (again)
“You must study the craft!” he says again and again. But, sir, I thought that’s what I was doing by buying your book? And your book didn’t say too much about how to be a better writer, no techniques, no applicable advice, just long winded discussion. You keep telling me to study the craft. And now I must follow your advice by purchasing someone else’s books because I really do need to get started on that...
