I had a friend who wrote a screenplay. I helped him format it with Final Draft. We were going to try to sell it when he was murdered. I'm trying to figure out how to legitimize my connection to the work so that I can turn it into a movie, as he intended, or as a book. Any thoughts?
Forget the old story, write about the events of the story and the murder of your friend in your own voice. That is the story... I'm right about this. Also try: http://www.thenextbigwriter.com Both the site and forum will provide you answers.
