Post Body
I’m a complete beginner to screenwriting, and I’m writing a pilot to a TV show based on a series of books . It’s mainly to get a feel for screenwriting, so I’m not bothered if nothing comes of it, but how would I go about getting the rights from the author?
Edit: Sorry, I didn’t mean buy the rights, I meant get permission from the author to write the script (Optioning might be the word to use here, but I’m not sure what it is.)
