@biancorosso11 what I usually say is:
Those who can, do. Those who can't, teach. Those who can't teach, are worthless fucks.

Those that can, do. Those that can't, teach. Those that can't teach, teach gym.

@Maxcherrybailbonds Robert McKee does write. His unproduced screenplay MISS JULIE MONTGOMERY is excellent.
The man can WRITE.

Just finished McKee's book (for fun, I'm not a "serious" story writer) and had to search for more of his work... Great stuff here! Thanks for posting this video! I'm definitely subscribing.

If we were to stretch that reasoning than we'd say only the greatest athletes can make great coaches. Red Aurbach and Phil Jackson are the greatest coaches in NBA history. Phil was a limited player while Red didn't even play. Does that make them unfit to instruct a team? Teaching is its own art. Many succesfull screenwriters probably couldnt teach or spread their wisdom for the life of them. Oh he also wrote STORY. Best seller. So obviously he can write about writing. That good enough for you?

I think for good reason, a lot of writers discard these screenwriter gurus who don't actually write screenplays. But McKee and Syd Field do have a lot of knowledge on the subject.
