My Graphic Journey: Screenplay to Novel - Part One

I’m going to be documenting the journey of my screenplay, “Lie. Cheat. Kill.” into a published graphic novel and hopefully to the silver screen.

I’ve written several short and feature length screenplays. I’ve produced or had my short films produced by companies and it’s allowed me to hone my skills as a writer/director. My ultimate goal is to direct features and I know my best shot to begin that journey is to write a great feature script. “Lie. Cheat. Kill. is that script and I hope it will land me that debut feature directing gig.

So now let’s pump the brakes, and savor the reality of my hopeful journey to directing features. The odds are against me but I’d rather fail trying than letting the odds convince me to give up. This is why I’ve decided to publish my feature screenplay, “Lie. Cheat. Kill.” into a graphic novel. The story is one that I want to tell and it felt right publishing the story as graphic novel while I face the many challenges ahead to get it produced as a feature.

Currently, all the pencil sketched panels of my graphic novel “Lie. Cheat. Kill.” have been completed and approved. The inks are rolling in daily and completed pages should soon follow. I will update “My Graphic Journey” with post and pictures as “Lie. Cheat. Kill.” travels the unforeseen road ahead.

“Lie. Cheat. Kill.” is a feature screenplay written by Jason Roberts and it is being published by Chinstrap Ninja.
