Novelizations - How to Adapt Scripts Into Novels: A Writing Guide for Screenwriters and Authors
Aug 5, 2014
$4.99
Novelizations - How to Adapt Scripts Into Novels
A Writing Guide for Screenwriters and Authors- Are you an author who wants to explore the business of adapting screenplays into novels?
- Are you a screenwriter who'd like to see your unproduced script written as a novel, to help get your film made?
- Are you a screenwriter who wants to adapt your own script into a novel?
This book is for you.
Novelizations used to pump business for existing movies and TV shows, but now a fast-growing trend has publishers contracting authors to pen novel adaptations based on scripts that haven't been produced--yet. At least until the novel raises awareness about the script and gives it a life of its own. It's a win-win for all creative writers.
If you are a novelist, you can benefit from learning the craft of adapting scripts into books. You may just end up penning a novelization that will one day be a film. There is an art to this form of adaptation that may differ from starting a novel from scratch.
If you're a screenwriter who is sitting on a gem of a script, what are you waiting for? We'll give you tips on how to team up with a novelist. Or you, too, can learn to adapt your screenplay as a novel. Just like screenwriting, there's a craft to be honed. With the whole story and characters of that script already in place, you're half way there.
Want to learn the trade secrets of this burgeoning business? Look no further. Using specific, side-by-side examples that compare script pages to novel pages, writing team Cheryl McKay (the screenwriter) and Rene Gutteridge (the novelist) share their experiences, tips, and know-how on adapting scripts into novels. Covering everything from creative technique to collaborative contracts, Novelizations: How to Adapt Scripts Into Novels is an invaluable tool for both screenwriters and novelists to successfully master this highly specialized art form.

RENE GUTTERIDGE is the one of the go-to authors for novelizations. She has written Old Fashioned, Heart of the Country, and Just 18 Summers for Tyndale. CHERYL MCKAY, screenwriter of The Ultimate Gift (which Gutteridge also novelized), has worked with Gutteridge on the novelizations for her scripts, Never the Bride for Random House and Greetings from the Flipside for B&H Publishing.

Why Would God Care About My Love Life?
From the woman behind the screenplay and novel, Never the Bride, comes a roller coaster of a love story with God. Cheryl McKay pulls no punches about what it's really like to be single, with your age creeping up, and no end in sight to the wait for love and marriage.
It seems that many years ago, God asked Cheryl to surrender the pen she was using to write her love story. All He wanted was carte blanche. No problem, right? Cheryl tentatively conceded--that is, until it became apparent that the Almighty had no intention of conforming to her writing schedule, much less the tick of her biological clock. In fact, He blew every deadline she ever attempted to set. As romance seemed to pass Cheryl by, she couldn't help but question: Could God really be trusted to bring her the love of her life?
Written during a long wait, this book opens up Cheryl's painfully honest, personal journals. She explores what it's like to enlist in God's Marriage Boot Camp, and how to survive singlehood year after solitary year. She wrestles with her Creator over multiple best friends that never see her "that way." Then there are those lists of what she wanted--you know, the ones she revised a billion times then laminated for safekeeping. She watches, bewildered, as much younger women find love that seems to elude her.
Through it all, she falls head over heels for a God who proves Himself to be as resistant to her controls as He is faithful beyond her wildest dreams.
Are you still waiting? Have you lost hope? Venture to victory with a woman who knows just how hard it is to wait for the day when you are Finally the Bride.
This book includes a collection of real-life God-written love stories by such authors as SQuire Rushnell & Louise DuArt (God Winks Series, Couples Who Pray), and Victorya Michaels Rogers (Finding a Man Worth Keeping).

Never the Bride: A Novel
May 27, 2009
$12.99
“What girl can’t identify with Never the Bride? This is a fabulously funny novel with deep truths embedded in its pages.” –Kristin Billerbeck, author of What a Girl Wants
“I admire writers who employ words to paint touchable pictures, likable characters, introducing us to instant friends who lead us to unexpected endings. That’s why I love Never The Bride.” –SQuire Rushnell, author of the When GOD Winks books
Eleven Bridesmaid Dresses Don’t Lie
Since she was just a little girl, Jessie Stone dreamed up hundreds of marriage proposals, doodled the romantic ideas in her journal with her treasured purple pen, and fantasized about wedding dresses and falling in love. She’s been a bridesmaid nearly a dozen times, waved numerous couples off to sunny honeymoons, and shopped in more department stores for half-price fondue pots than she cares to remember.
But shopping for one key component of these countless proposals hasn't been quite as productive–a future husband. The man she thought she would marry cheated on her. The crush she has on her best friend Blake is at very best…well, crushing. And speed dating has only churned out memorable horror stories.
So when God shows up one day, in the flesh, and becomes a walking, talking part of her life, Jessie is skeptical. What will it take to convince her that the Almighty has a better plan than one she’s already cooked up in her journals? Can she turn over her pen and trust someone else to craft a love story beyond her wildest dreams?
Cheryl McKay is the screenwriter for the award-winning film The Ultimate Gift. She also wrote an episode of Gigi: God’s Little Princess, based on the book by Sheila Walsh, and Taylor’s Wall, a drama about high-school violence. She’s been writing since the tender age of five when she penned her first play. Cheryl is originally from Boston, Massachusetts, and currently lives in Los Angeles.
Rene Gutteridge is a critically acclaimed comedy writer and novelist. She is the author of fifteen novels including the Boo series, My Life as a Doormat, the Occupational Hazards series, and the novelization of the motion picture The Ultimate Gift. She lives in Oklahoma with her family.

Book Two:
Finally Fearless: Journey from Panic to Peace
How Overcoming Anxiety Helped Me Find True Love
An Abuse Survivor's Guide to Panic-Free Relationships
Do fear and anxiety rule your life? They used to rule mine.
This is the book I was too afraid to write and definitely too afraid to publish. That would mean others could read some of my most private thoughts, pieces of my most difficult and painful journey. Most of my life, I put on a good face, that "life is perfect" façade. It was a sham. Then I realized I had to face my problems, my past, and my fears if I ever wanted to live a normal, healthy life. In writing this book, I decided to join the imperfect human race. I wrote it because I needed to heal. Maybe you need to heal, too.
Through writing about my story of panic, fear, and seemingly irrational anxieties, I uncovered so much about panic and anxiety disorders, coping techniques, causes of anxiety and fear, soul-searching activities to help unearth the root of anxiety problems, and methods that can bring about healing.
After many years of stagnancy, I found hope. God walked me through every step to help me find ways to grow, heal, change, and climb out from under the relentless thumb of anxiety. I can honestly say I am now healed.

Why am I like this? What is wrong with me? Why am I so afraid? I can't control my anxiety; these fears seem to overtake me. Does anyone know how I feel? No one else has this problem. I am a freak, and I am alone. Where is God in this?

No kid likes to follow all the rules, but Mr. Henry has a funny way of showing that it's totally cool to obey the Lord. Children will come to see that the garden's bananas taste a lot better than the snake's baloney, that it's no fun being fish food at the bottom of the sea, and that red rope licorice goes very well with Jericho crumb cake. It's a smorgasbord of biblical truths about why obeying God always tastes good.

Springhill, Nova Scotia, a tiny town with a tremendously courageous spirit.
In the 1950s, tragedy struck the mining town of Springhill not once, but three times:
The Explosion took the lives of 39 miners. The Main Street Fire wiped out many of the family-owned businesses. The Bump, an underground earthquake, took the lives of 75 good men of Springhill.
Springhill became known as everything from "The Hard Luck Town" to "Miracle Town."
Those miracles are the heart of this book.
Springhill is a place with strong resilience, despite the tragedies that tried to take her down. The miracles that happened are nothing short of astounding, to see the hand of God show up and rescue men whom the entire town thought were dead.
In Spirit of Springhill, you will experience the town through first-person accounts of what happened back in the 1950s from the point of view of survivors and their wives, from victims' widows and orphans, from children of rescued miners, and miners who risked their lives to be on the rescue teams.
Springhill remains an inspiration to all who hear about it. This chronicle from the voices of the people of Springhill will help us preserve their history for generations to come.
Their stories should not be forgotten.
Author Cheryl McKay has been researching Springhill for over a decade, ever since her Springhill native father, Tom McKay, convinced her that the story of these disasters needed to be a movie. Cheryl's grandfather survived the 1958 Bump. He would have died in the 1956 Explosion had he not traded shifts with a friend. Many years later, accounts of her grandfather's survival instigated Cheryl's quest to unearth this heartrending true story, as shared in this book of interviews and dramatized in its companion novel, Song of Springhill. Cheryl is the screenwriter of The Ultimate Gift and co-author of Never the Bride and Greetings from the Flipside.

Can This Show Really Go On?
Grad student and budding marriage counselor Aly Brewster has had it all.
Perfect childhood. Perfect parents. Now she's on track for a dream life of her own. Stage One: finish her Masters. Stage Two: build a successful practice. Stage Three: find a husband at twenty-six. But Aly's idyllic bubble bursts when her parents' news blindsides her: they're getting a divorce.
Actor Nick Armstrong has been gaga over Aly since freshman year. He relishes his place in her Friend Zone just to be near her. But after five years as just best buds--it's time to move on.
Suddenly, the usually-unflappable Aly begs Nick to help save her parents' marriage. Nick hatches the perfect plan. They'll fake an engagement to each other. Their act will inspire her parents to save their marriage. And who knows? Maybe this fake engagement could trigger real feelings.
Diving into character, Aly ups the ante on their act, complete with plans for staging a wedding on her parents' boat, duplicating their wedding day. More actors are cast to pose as Nick's family. As the lines between acting and reality blur, these feigned fiancés must choose. Will this become more than just a play?
Or will they exit stage right--alone?
