Family Drama Genre

Introduction

Write family dramas where someone who endured too long finally settles the score

For outlines and scripts about in-laws, marriage, families of origin, inheritance, elder care and divorce. Covers the endure-awaken-stand-firm beats, turning the tables with accounts and evidence, layered antagonists from sharp-tongued relatives to the husband caught in the middle, believable divorce and property law, and whether the ending cuts ties or reconciles. Reach for it when writing, revising or checking a family drama.
