Are you a writer looking to flesh out and expand a horror screenplay into novel form?
Hi. I’m the producer of a horror film in pre-production and I seek a writer to novelize the script for my company.
What’s it about?
Well, that’s proprietary right now. Think BEVERLY LEWIS meets CHILDREN OF THE CORN and you’ll get an approximate idea of what we’re after.
What’s the pay?
This is a work-for-hire situation on a negotiated per page (or per-word) payment. We are looking for the novel to be two hundred pages or 80,000 words.
What’s the credit?
Since the writer wishes to have his name on the novel, this will be an anonymous ghost writing position. The screenwriter also reserves to rewrite the manuscript as he sees fit.
What are the requirements?
Experience in the MYSTERY/SUSPENSE/HORROR genres is preferred. Past experience with MOVIE NOVELIZATIONS is a huge plus.
Also, if you know who BEVERLY LEWIS is and can approach and surpass her style of writing, we’d like to meet you.
We prefer to work with someone in LOCAL TO LOS ANGELES.
So I just novelize the screenplay and that’s it?
Absolutely not. We seek a collaborator to expand the universe and, if approved, improve the story within the framework the screenplay affords you. Since the location takes places in a specific area, some research will be required. We don’t want the simple “he said, she said” translation.
What’s the timeline?
The first twenty pages will be on a PAID trial basis. Once approved, we’d look to have the manuscript in hand within 90 days of our signed agreement.
How do I get your attention?
Please send a resume, references and links to your blog, along with a SHORT WRITING SAMPLE. If interested, I will send my resume, references and links in return so we may begin the conversation.
Hi Ernie,
I understand that you require the services of someone who has a wicked imagination to flesh out a horror story based on your script.
I have been writing since I was six years old and have only perfected my craft over the years. Last year I was hired to write several horror screenplays for a couple of independent film companies and also several novels.
By looking at my reviews you'll find that all of my clients are always satisfied with the results I give them.
The time line for completing the entire novel is complete fair and I believe that I will be able to complete it before that time. I write roughly 150 words per minute and once my imagination is activated, not even an apocalyptic un-dead invasion could deter it.
I have sent you a PM with some of my writing samples and also will direct you to my blog where you can download some of the screenplays I have written among other writing samples.
I can assure you that with me you will only get the highest degree of writing and access to my freakishly active imagination.
Thank you for this opportunity and I hope you consider me for this job.
I leave the rest of the information in my PM
Warmest Regards ,
Jeandre Gerber
Hi,
I am interested in this project - but the rates are way too low for a project of this magnitude. I am a professional writer with a long list of published work. Please get in touch if you can add to your budget and you wish to see samples of my work. Thanks.
I teach film classes on horror films (just finished a zombie class!) and i have published several books on pop culture icons. I'd like to try this translation from script to novel. See my profile for samples.
I am a professional. produced screenwriter (successful horror film franchise SCARECROW) and content writer. I can create your novelization from the inside out. I am well versed in the horror genre and am also producing a feature of this genre.

hi!
i am an experienced writer of fiction and non-fiction who has written screenplays and stories in a wide variety of genres. i am also a published poet and a ph.d. (a.b.d. in reality...) in social anthropology from berkeley. i am intrigued by novelising a horror screenplay and have often preferred writing the story versions of my scripts to the actual screenwriting.
please choose me for this work and you will not be disappointed!
thanks!
Hello. I have a few novels published and am very interested in this job. Thrillers and horror is what I primarily work on, so if you are interested in hiring me it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time.
As a fan of the horror genre, I would love to tackle this as my first fiction project. I am a former reporter with nearly 10 years of experience in the field. I understand and respect deadlines as much as I do quality writing. While they are not fiction, my profile has several examples of my writing.
Hello I have written several novel length manuscripts from very bare bones outlines. I love the horror genre and would be able to help you expand your script into an exciting novel without adding any of the cliches or predictability of the average writer. While i am on the east coast i am confident in my ability to work quickly and well while maintaining the level of communication you desire
