I wrote a dialogue-driven coming of age screenplay.
I want the screenplay converted into novel format. ALL dialogue will 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.
EXAMPLE:
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 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.
REQUIREMENTS:
- Freelancer must first read the entire script (180pages) before accepting the job.
- The story has 5 volumes. The chosen freelance would link with me 1 volume at a time. - My corrections will be only for character consistency.
- My view extra notes, so that scene descriptions will be stated.
- In first message, the winner of the 2016 NBA finals must be stated in the beginning.
- Some say they can convert this in 2 to 3 days and some say 2 to 3 weeks - I need your estimate after reading the story.
- Writer must be familiar with US dialect.
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,

Freshman Year (vol. 1)

I want the exact dialogue used for each character. It's just filling in the gaps for common readers.
OBJECTIVES:
FRESHMAN YEAR - INTRODUCTION (THEME: FOCUS)
SOPHOMORE YEAR - THEME: HELPLESSNESS
JUNIOR YEAR - THEME: DARKSIDE
SENIOR YEAR PT. 1 - REBIRTH
SENIOR YEAR PT. 2 - FINISH WHAT WE STARTED
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. I estimate first draft should take under 12 hours. Let me know your estimates. (No need to add dialogue, only change format add scene description. The most advance parts will be describing 2 basketball games.)

Hello-
I am Lori and I have been writing and editing for 25+ years. I work mostly on manuscripts and screenplay to book conversions are usual fare to me. I just completed the transformation of a long,very heavy "conversation" piece into a novel. Its final product was an excellent, edge of your seat thriller which is already in publication right now! I am very organized and meticulous in my work. I work quickly, but efficiently and am able to follow your instructions to the letter. I would complete a few pages for you to get an idea of my work, set a milestone for 50% of the work. I will send you a copy marked up, and a clean copy. I tend to comment in bubbles on the markup for you to answer to clarify anything, etc. I would love to work on another conversion rightnow, I am still in the zone!
Please consider me highly! Look forward to talking to you,
My Best,
Lori

This is a very fitting project for me. I will be able to use my skills and experience to convert your screenplay into a novel format. In order to do this, I will explain one action at a time; be brief; describe what a reader can understand; and will use action, reaction, and gestures - not facial expressions.
I reside in New Orleans. Since school is out for the summer, I have a great deal of time to devote wholeheartedly to this. Feel free to contact me anytime.
Regards,
Julie
