This topic came up in our last Tuesday meeting. Found this great nugget that can help other writers who are trying to adopt a book into a screenplay.

Yes, Ami. I'am figuring the same. I haven't fully completed my first-round of attempts, but I'am looking-forward to it. This video was extremely helpful. Here's the link to the book that was mentioned -- Screenplay: The Foundations of Screenwriting by Syd Field

Thank you for this great instructional video! I’m an author however, I have now started screenwriting and it so arduous (compared to sitting down and allowing the words to flow for hours), that I feared I was doing it incorrectly. However, after watching your video I see that I am doing it correctly and it is very arduous work!
Thank you! Ami (Gypsie) Offenbacher-Ferris
