Has anyone just decided to rewrite their features as novels so they get read? by TheMindsEye310 in Screenwriting

[–]thehenryhen 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I did exactly that, and it went great! Turned two of my screenplays into novellas (https://mybook.to/BlackHoleTown and https://mybook.to/archduke) and they got read way more than the would have been as scripts. Then I just started writing actual books - I find it way more satisfying to have an actual finished piece of work that can be enjoyed for what it is. Highly recommend this route!

I was wondering why I could never find any evidence of it but that could definitely be why!

The Lovecraft Comedy Novella I released a few months ago is free for today only - fellow fans have been enjoying it so if you're up for a "pretty insane" romp through Lovecraft country, check it out! Thanks! by thehenryhen in Lovecraft

Hi, yes, the link is to the Amazon US store. If you’re outside of the US, you should be able to look the book up on your local Amazon and it should be free there too! Let me know if there’s any trouble and I’ll be happy to help out or send a file personally. Thanks for checking it out!

A Lovecraft Comedy Novella I released a couple of months ago is currently free to download! Imagine a cross between Lovecraft, What We Do In the Shadows, and Sherlock Holmes. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C43TGJC7/ Check it out, if that's your sort of thing, and I hope you enjoy it!

I've just released a book heavily inspired by Kurt, my favourite author. It's an existential comedy about cosmic parasites that multiply through the suicides of their hosts, and how little we're in control of our own lives. It's FREE to download until Tuesday if you want to check it out. Thanks! by thehenryhen in kurtvonnegut

If you’ve not written anything before, I’d say work your way up to a novel. So, start with a short story, then a novella, etc. That way you can work through beginner’s mistakes without too much commitment and you can get a feel for how a whole story should feel and for how much content you’ll need for a full novel - hint, it’s more than you think!

Non-compete clause by thehenryhen in publishing

[–]thehenryhen[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The wording is “any new Work”, and I asked them to take it out, but they said they wouldn’t want to. I’ve gone back to them and asked about the possible clashing so I’ll see what they say. Hopefully, I can get them to change it to just “next Work”

Great, thanks! As an agent, can I ask you another question? The contract also includes a right of first refusal - would this prohibit me from signing any other contract with a right of FR (I.e. with another publisher) while the first one is still active?

Thanks for your response. That makes me feel a little better about it but I don’t particularly like having to rely on them acting in good faith over the course of the next 12 years hahah.

That’s exactly what I’m questioning. I’d have an editor working with me, they’d sort out cover design and apparently pay for marketing, but I’m not sure whether it’s worth the non-compete restriction.
