Hey writers! If you attended the 2017 Missouri Writers Guild Conference in Columbia, you might have been lucky enough to catch Corey Milles’s presentation of Save the Cat! basics at the annual conference. At this link, Corey reflects on the experiences of the teachers at his talks. When students are taught a common language, one that they can relate to by studying their favorite films, suddenly stories become exciting, and writing becomes something they can do.

Save the Cat! website is thrilled to present the feedback Corey’s gotten about using “the common language” of STC! to inspire students.

Don’t miss this article, and keep checking the MWG website for future conference plans, where you can attend talks like this in person to help your writing career!
