Writer for novel to screenplay: Seeking experienced and/or talented screenplay writer to contract to adapt an unpublished — but not unpolished — novel into a screenplay for pay and equity share. Essentially, the job is to create a well-structured first draft screenplay from the novel, then possibly collaborate on further draft refinement. You will be working throughout with a partner who has realistically accessed the novel's strengths and weaknesses and who understands the practical necessity to cut some things, expand others and possibly create new scenes to make the screenplay work. Communication will primarily be over the internet and phone, but you must be willing to meet at least a few times if necessary.
