Historical Novel Screenplay Conversion

Job ID: 38195918

Budget: $750 – $1,500 USD

I've written a 200-page historical narrative novel with roughly 47K words, and am seeking professional assistance to convert it into a screenplay. The person I am looking for should have the following qualifications:

* Expertise in screenplay conversion, preferably with action novels
* Capacity to include all events from the novel in the screenplay without losing the essence of the historical narrative

Understanding of narrative pacing and structure, as well as showing reverence for the source material are crucial. Deadline and other project details can be further discussed upon engagement. I am excited to potentially work with you to bring my story to a new format.

I need someone to convert my novel to a screenplay. Or screenplays. I'm having trouble finding someone to do that. I've had several bad experiences. Also, some people have said that the novel will convert to a long movie, some say it's more like a four-to-eight-part series, and some say three complete seasons. ? The Novel is only 47k words, but it moves quickly and covers a lot of ground. A LOT of history.

Can you take a quick look at the novel, especially the last chapters, but not JUST the last two chapters and see if you will even be able to convert it to a screenplay or screenplays?

And if so, what would you charge me to read the entire novel and give me your assessment on how many shows it might be in a series, or how long a movie it would be, and what that would cost?

More details later if you're interested, but for now, go to the link below to see if it's a project you might want to take on? It was a bestseller in a minor genre, and in the top 30 of two major genres: Mystery and Action. It was also the best-selling JFK novel for almost 20 straight weeks.
