Have you written a book, or acquired an intellectual property, that could be turned into a great movie or TV show?  As a Book-to-Script Adaptation Specialist and Screenwriter for Hire, I've worked with best-selling authors and top Hollywood producers to adapt published, self-published and unpublished book manuscripts into professional, industry-ready screenplays. 


With my Adaptation Assessment service, I read and evaluate books, and other IP materials, to provide detailed advice and recommendations on a project's potential, as well as suggesting a best approach for adapting the story / concept and characters into a visual / filmic medium.


My 4-5 pages of consultation notes includes:


  • Insightful observations on the book's plot and characters, offered from a screenwriter's / producer's perspective with a view to assessing how this book could feasibly be adapted into a feature film or TV show.
  • Creative ideas / problem-solving solutions to address any challenges that may foreseeably arise in the adaptation process.
  • Thoughtful guidance on the next steps for moving forward with a book to script adaptation.
  • Honest and professional opinion on the property's overall potential as a movie or TV series.
  • Recommended options for how to approach adapting the book into the plot and structure of an industry-standard script format, and bringing its characters, story, themes and 'essence' to the screen.


Ultimately, the goal of every adaptation is turning the property / book into a script that is compelling and entertaining, and that stays true to the original material.


As a pro screenwriter who has worked on scripts for authors, IP owners, production companies and TV networks, I am skilled at every facet of the adapting process, from developing to writing.  So, I bring that level of hands-on practical knowledge to every assessment.


I will take an in-depth look at your project, to craft relevant and useful consultation notes.  Unlike a reader at a 'coverage' service, who may comment simply on what "works" in the story, I have the industry experience to assess the adaptation of a property and recommend how to actively approach turning it into a film screenplay or TV script, with creative ideas and strategies for making the project appealing to producers and audiences.
