Do screenwriters write the story for what they write?!
Question: I'm curious if they just write the dialog or if they are actually involved in writing the story as well.

Not necessarily. They will adapt books or short stories to a movie.
Or they might come up with their own script. They are however responsible for the actual dialogue written.
