Adapting your screenplay into a novel? I just heard about a great Writers Store webinar.

Friday, February 3rd, 2012

If you’re adapting your screenplay into a novel, this message is for you.  I just heard about a webinar scheduled for February 22, 2012:  Script to Novel: Double Your Odds of a Sale.  Two really great presenters will conduct the program: Charlotte Cook and Jon James Miller.  I’ve known both Charlotte and Jon for years and really respect their writing expertise.  Plus I found their book, Adapting Sideways — How to turn your screenplay into a publishable novel (KOMENAR Publishing, 2010), packed full of useful and well-organized information.  Be sure to check out what this program has to offer. 

Warm wishes and happy writing,
