Script to Novel: Double Your Odds of a Sale OnDemand WebinarToday's screenwriters are finding fewer opportunities to take their creative work to the film industry and even less opportunity to stay attached to their work when bought. Yet, even in such times, under such circumstances, options and strategies exist to develop and advance a screenwriter's career perhaps the best being novelization. Published novels and non fiction books stand a much better chance of getting read by Hollywood for source material

Today's screenwriters are finding fewer opportunities to take their creative work to the film industry and even less opportunity to stay attached to their work when bought. Yet, even in such times, under such circumstances, options and strategies exist to develop and advance a screenwriter's career-perhaps the best being novelization.

Published novels and non-fiction books stand a much better chance of getting read by Hollywood for source material than spec scripts in today's market - and a published author stands a better chance of staying attached and getting that "screenplay by" credit when their book is optioned by Hollywood.

Now, determined to find their audience and another way to the silver screen in a tight economy, screenwriters are learning that having both a novel and screenplay version of their story makes them more attractive to Hollywood than ever, increasing their odds of a sale in both literary and film markets.

What You'll Learn:

  • How to showcase your story-telling strengths
  • How to translate screenwriting skills to novelist craft
  • How to jump-start your novel-writing career
  • Specific topics include:
    • Isolating meaningful moments from the screenplay for the novel
    • Isolating pivotal scenes in each act
    • Isolating favorite scenes
    • World-building
    • Making scenes vivid, vibrant and immediate
    • Crafting a compelling story with engaging characters and evocative setting
    • Translating action and pace from screenplay to novel
    • The mechanics of reformulating script dialogue for the novel

Who Should Attend:

  • Writers who want to use their affinity for film and screenwriting to demystify novel writing and novelization
  • Writers who wish to utilize their scriptwriting skills to novelize their stories, get read, and be taken seriously by Hollywood
  • Writers who want to expand their skill set to include novelization in addition to screenwriting
  • Writers who want to stay attached to their project and attract literary and film agents
  • Anyone who is currently considering whether to write a screenplay or novel
  • Writers who want to leverage both publishing and literary markets to advance their writing career
  • Writers who have a screenplay that doesn't have a strong male lead in a contemporary action story but still want their story read and produced by Hollywood

Everyone Can Use A Little Assistance With Manners
Format: Hardcover
"Manners Can Be Fun" covers basics like introductions, please and thank you, being responsible in the home you live in and table manners. It's the illustrations, however, which get the point across and hit the reader over the head. No matter your age, the cute drawings really let one see what others experience when you behave badly. The basics of what's important in life are put into perspective and appreciated all over again. Playing, saying "hello" and so many other topics pertinent to etiquette and consideration are placed on Mr. Leaf's pages in quick, precise prose which encourage action. Munro Leaf's description of The Noisey's, The Pigs, Me First, Whineys, Smash, Rip, Ruin and others assist young and old of what to do around others and what not to do. It's basic, it's short and sweet, it's truly a classic. Like all classics, "Manners Can Be Fun" has not gone out of style. Many thanks to Universe Publishing for placing this wonderful book back on the shelves and into our hands.

A classic for the kids in your family.
Format: Hardcover
This is a classic book of manners written for youngsters. I had a copy a copy when I was a child, read it to my children, gave it to my grandchildren and purchased this copy for my great grandchildren. Necessary lessons are presented simply with illustrations one won’t forget. The lesson I remember most is this: “Be kind to animals. They have feelings too.” Most highly recommend.

Great message that the kids listen to
Format: Hardcover
I love the message and my kids (3 and 5) find it credible and engaging, so it's a win all around. I find the illustrations (which are either done by a 5 year old or an adult as talented an artist as I am) painful but I give the text 6 out of 5 stars so when I take a star off for the over-the-top illustrations we're still at 5/5 ;) Kids who have greater access to exclusively modern media with intense graphics may not be able to relate to the material: the graphics are a big hurdle and the text is pretty dated too. I'm sure an updated version would be even more engaging for my kids but what it lacks in exciting, current graphics it makes up for in specificity and clarity for my two.

Entertaining and helpful lessons
Format: Hardcover
My family loves this book. Used to read it to my daughter as a young girl and now she’s a teen. We still talk about the lessons learned in this book! The characters and illustrations crack me up: Smash, rip and ruin taught us a lot! And the ones without hands and noses! I couldn’t believe how long ago this book was written when we got it- all lessons still applicable today.
