If you have completed a screenplay for film or television, and you cannot get it produced, take ownership of your Intellectual Property and adapt your screenplay into a novel, transforming it into something marketable.
No writer should ever box their story into one medium. Sure, you dream of seeing your screenplay come to life on the big screen, but that is not an easy task. It’s not impossible, but it could take many years and big budgets to realise your dream.
The novelisation of your screenplay could ignite the imaginations of readers worldwide and become a bestseller, feeding the appetite of producers searching for new stories. Just look at the latest movies and TV shows. Most are adapted from books or short stories. It’s time to shift your game plan and double your odds of success. That goes for novelists, too, who should consider the potential of adapting their novels and short stories into features and TV pilots.
Take the leap into prose and put your stories on the bookshelves. Share your art while growing your fanbase.
