My four friends and I always joke about how the story of our friendship could be a novel, or lifetime movie someday... Lately, our lives have been so dramatic and so paralleled and so poignant that I've felt that a book or movie would be an interesting prospect.... except....
I'm not great at writing, and wouldn't be able to do anything like a manuscript...
Has a person ever just suggested a story to an already-established writer or movie-maker, and allowed the writer or movie-maker to take their story and develop it? Or is that just not done? If they did make the story, would we be credited with the idea or would we not hold any rights on the story at all?
Is it a matter of waiting until I'm rich enough to hire a writer to do the work that I'd need to do?
