Scripting Your Novel
Learn how Leslie Anne Lighton converted one of Kate Welsh’s published Inspirational romances to a 110-page TV movie script by deconstructing scenes to the bare essentials: who, what, when, where, and dialogue.
Leslie Anne Lighton enjoys writing both fiction and nonfiction, including contemporary romantic suspense novels and screenplays. Her history book UPPER PROVIDENCE BICENTENNIAL, published in 2005, benefits the Royersford Free Public Library and she is currently preparing to publish an updated biography of a key Revolutionary War era figure. In 2007, one of her series contemporary manuscripts won fourth-place in the RWA Coeur de Louisiane’s “Romancing the Tome” contest. By profession, Leslie is a compliance auditor for a global pharmaceutical company. In the past she worked as a photojournalist, computer programmer/validation analyst, and training class developer/instructor.
