Elle LaMarca asked this question about Story Genius: How to Use Brain Science to Go Beyond Outlining and Write a Riveting Novel (Before You Waste Three Years Writing 327 Pages That Go Nowhere):
I have not read WIRE FOR STORY yet. Anyone think that's necessary to "get" this book? Or can I skip ahead and just start here?
John Maguire Wired for Story is not as good as Story Genius, which includes everything in the first book, but it a more useful form.
