Robert McKee is a world-renowned screenwriting lecturer, story consultant, and the author of the book "Story: Substance, Structure, Style, and the Principles of Screenwriting". He has taught his storytelling principles to thousands of screenwriters, novelists, playwrights, and industry professionals around the world. McKee is considered a master storyteller, and his seminars are highly respected for their rigor, insight, and practical advice.

McKee's approach to storytelling emphasizes the importance of substance, structure, and style. He believes that great stories are grounded in universal human experiences and that they must be structured in a way that engages the audience emotionally and intellectually. His teachings have been influential in the film industry, with many of his students going on to write successful screenplays, including the writers of the films "The Social Network" and "Black Swan".

Despite being best known for his work in the film industry, McKee has also written extensively about storytelling in other mediums. He has published a book on novel writing, "Storynomics", and has worked with corporate executives and leaders to help them craft compelling narratives that resonate with their audiences. His teachings on the art of storytelling have helped countless writers and creators to connect with their audiences and to bring their visions to life.

In this conversation we talk about what makes a great story, is it language? Is it the story itself? We also talked about how he knew what he wanted to do in life at age 8 and how can you become a great storyteller.
