I wrote a dialogue driven coming of age screenplay. I want the screenplay converted into novel format. ALL dialogue would be USED. I only want the add-ins. (Scene description, intent, background information not provided in script.) Instead of play format, I want dialogue in a story form. I targeted content of story, over providing for the imagination of readers. ORIGINAL SCREENPLAY COPY: INT. HOME (APARTMENT) DARK & EARLY MORNING Narrow-view of digital clock that reads 4:59 Furious lies awake on the couch that doubles as his bed. The apartment is lit only by the red light from the clock. When the clock changes to 5:00, Furious sits up. EXAMPLE of what I'm looking for in the conversion: (Bare in mind, I suck at this) The apartment was way too small, but almost customized for maximum usage as what most natives did. The brown hand-me-down sofa that tripled as Furious' bed, workout bench and community cushioned seating, was old yet soft and strong. They didn't have much, but they grew up making a little into enough. Furious lays still on the couch with thoughts of a "new day, a new way" on his mind he watched his red digital alarm clock turn to 5 o'clock. He hits the silence on the clock just before the alarm wails, Furious rolls his body upward and places his feet on the floor with purpose. The story has 5 parts. The chosen freelance would link with me 1 volume at a time. We'd discuss tone and visuals, which are minor in amount but important for the reader to understand the layout. Minor descriptions of Locations: Not more than 30 locations involved. APARTMENT/FRONT STOOP/ CORNER STORE / 2 OUT DOOR BASKETBALL COURTS, 1 GYM, 2 BASKETBALL STADIUMS, NIGHTCLUB OFFICE, DETENTION CENTER, CAR, SUV, HOSPITAL (ROOM, CAFE, NURSE STATION, CHURCH, ER, WAITING ROOM), PARK, RESTAURANT, BACK ALLEY, HIGH SCHOOL HALLWAY, COFFEE SHOP, CORRIDOR, LOCKER ROOM, BATHROOM. Characters: 5 MAIN CHARACTERS 30 CHARACTERS ALL TOGETHER (most minor rolls, but require some type of description) Anyone interested should read volume 1, Freshman year first. Still working on the site, but Freshman year is loaded: [login to view URL] I want the exact dialogue used for each character. It's just filling in the gaps for common readers. I'd prefer to work with one freelancer for all 5 volumes 250 pages, but I will option independent volumes per writer. Each volume has a different objectives. OBJECTIVES: FRESHMAN YEAR - INTRODUCTION (THEME: FOCUS) 60 pages SOPHOMORE YEAR - THEME: HELPLESSNESS 55 pages JUNIOR YEAR - THEME: DARKSIDE 28 pages SENIOR YEAR PT. 1 - REBIRTH 40 pages SENIOR YEAR PT. 2 - FINISH WHAT WE STARTED 71 pages Please provide a snippet of previous works. I've received a estimate that was based of Freshman year, 15 pages would take 30 mins to a hour to convert. EXAMPLE OF DIALOGUE EXT. – APARTMENT STOOP – LATE MORNING Christmas Eve, Furious shovels snow off his front stoop as he talks to T whom sits in on the stoop with his feet in Furious' way. FURIOUS (Frustrated) Move man, I ain't trying to be out here all day. T (TRAIN) (Playful) Why not, it's not like you got a job. How you gonna stop ballin in order to find work, but you ain't working, so why not ball? FURIOUS How you gonna ask 3 questions at once, and answer all of them. T (TRAIN) I don't know, did I? Yeah ok I guess. 15 FURIOUS (lol) You did it again, I don't even need to talk. Door opens, Angel walks out.

He, I'm interested in your project. Congratulations on writing a screen play. I like the idea of turning it into a novel. I'm a freelance writer, working primarily in the romance genre. I'm good at descriptions, adding nuance and detail to scenes. I'm happy to work with you until you get the book that you want. I've attached a link to a story written for a client. It's explicit, but gives a good feel for my writing style. http://www.amazon.com/Baileys-Little-Adventure-Summer-Graystone-ebook/dp/B00ZSAUM3W/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8 I look forward to working with you. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. Carol McKenzie
