Every novelist wants to see their writing on the silver screen. Too easy. Step one, convert your book into a screenplay… Today’s guest is James Fox. He’s been in the film industry for over 22 years and has worked just about every role you can imagine in the industry. We’ll discuss his unique entry point into novel writing. He wrote his first book, Sol Saga: Revolution after pitching the same series as a screenplay.
So what’s the difference between building a script and world for the screen vs the page?
In Part One, We Discuss:
- The main differences in screenplay and novel expectations
- Expectation vs reality in writing your first novel
- Working in a writers room vs co-writing vs solo writing experiences
- Balancing creativity with more business-minded goals and benchmarks
- Worldbuilding focus and motivating concepts for writing
- In-depth research, handwavium, and their roles in science fiction
- Utilizing field professionals for research
- The seven degrees of Kevin Bacon
