ARE YOU READY TO BE GREENLIT?

It’s time for every author to take their rightful place at the television and film table, because every great movie and series starts with a story. Become the hero of yours!
The Favorite Son, is now a BET+ Original Film movie co-produced by BET and Swirl Films and currently If you’re the author of a novel, novella, short story, memoir or long poem and have ever thought this could make a good movie or television series, you are not alone. Weekly, I get inboxes, emails and direct messages from authors who want to know how I did it. They want to know the blueprint. Is there a repeatable methodology? Can they do it too?
At first I thought…well…it’s mostly serendipity right? But then, when I started to teach book-to-film boot camps and helped authors package their work with the help of outlines, treatments, series bibles, pitch decks, and more, I realized that while there is always a little sprinkle of luck in the equation, there is more strategy than most successful authors of these projects care to admit.
