Morcan Books & Films

Attention novelists and anyone who needs a screenwriter for a story idea or adaptation of a novel to a feature film screenplay or TV series perhaps. This father-and-son co-writing team here at Morcan Books and Films are on standby to help you.

Former newspaper editor-turned author/screenwriter Lance Morcan and writer/director James Morcan are available for assignments at standard film industry rates. Co-writing a screenplay (with you or another writer) would be quite acceptable. “Screenwriter” credits are required should the production ever be greenlit.

We are adapting our own solo and co-authored novels to feature film screenplays, so we understand the challenges authors face adapting their work for the big or small screen. Our screenplay adaptations (11 to date) are in early development as you can see if you visit James’s film industry page at https://www.imdb.com/name/nm1909596/

James recently celebrated his directorial debut with his controversial mystery-drama movie ANNO 2020, which he adapted from his published novel of the same name, and which is now streaming globally on Fawesome TV. This VARIETY Magazine article highlights this exciting development: https://au.variety.com/2026/film/news/no-budget-australian-film-anno-2020-goes-global-34774/

Assistance with (A) securing producer interest in your script and (B) even helping package a production (securing talent and finance) are additional services we offer.

>>> DM James (in the first instance) here or @MorcanJames or Lance here or @SterlingGate if our screenwriting services are of interest.
