THE MANUSCRIPT LANE
Most books that become films were never written for the screen. This lane reads your prose honestly as prose, then tells you the truth every producer works out privately: which format it fits, which scenes a camera can already see, and what has to be dramatised once the narrator goes quiet.
Paste your opening chapter or a complete short story — up to 40,000 characters. Don Chuy reads it as fiction (voice, interiority, prose craft) and then as source material: which screen format fits, what a camera can already see, and what dies the moment the narrator stops talking.
Opening chapters of a full-length book.
0 / 40,000 characters
The prose score lives on its own — it never touches your Armageddon Score. When the screenplay exists, run the full 225-point read, and the Tool Shed has the benches for everything in between.
