Slay the Dragon by Robert Denton Bryant

Writing for the multibillion-dollar video-game industry is unlike writing for any other medium. Slay the Dragon will help you understand the challenges and offer creative solutions to writing for a medium where the audience not only demands a great story, but to be a driving force within it. Aimed at traditional writers who want to learn interactive narrative as well as game creators who want to tell better, more emotionally involving stories, the book is written by two creative veterans of both Hollywood and Nerdyhood. Through lively discussions and self-paced-exercises, Bryant and Giglio step you such topics as: the no-act structure of video games; writing great game characters; making gameplay emotionally meaningful; and bringing your game world alive.

Joshua, Noah, Return to Halloweentown, Walt Disney's Tarzan, Pizza My Heart, A Cinderella Tale, and Another Cinderella Story are among the feature and television films on which Keith Giglio has worked as a screenwriter and producer. He's written for companies such as Paramount Pictures, The Walt Disney Corporation, Universal Studios, and Warner Bros. Spyglass Entertainment, Walden Media, Tokyopop, and Platinum Studios are among the companies involved. In 2012, he launched his book, Scripting the Comedy Blockbuster. At Syracuse University, he presently teaches screenplay and game writing.
