About a year ago, your agent called to tell you that a film company was negotiating to purchase an option on one of your novels. Two months ago she informed you that they had exercised the option.
The other important news she had was that she had negotiated with the film company to hire you as a co-writer of the screen play for a very handsome screen writing fee. You will be teaming up with a respected, experienced and successful screen writer. This is a major breakthrough for you as it has been your dream to become a screen writer.
At last the chance for fame and fortune, are at hand.
