Novels and movies are "reviewed" in sooo many
places, and some reviews are quite positive. But what about some evidence?
Exactly how was "great" built? In GEMS, the focus is Episodes
that have outstanding scripts, solid characters, and believable actions. Meticulous
Analysis of how these Radio
and TV productions were SHAPED can help writers (editors, too) learn new
ways to carry an audience through a complex set of events and choices...
