REDEMPTION is hands down the best love story I have ever read... with surprises that keep on coming. ~Melanie Mayron, Actress, Director, Writer

THIS IS A SCRIPT, NOT A NOVEL.

In 2001 Patricia Burroughs was awarded a prestigious ?Don and Gee Nicholl Fellowship in Screenwriting? by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences in Los Angeles. The script, ?Redemption,? is an adaptation of her first published novel, La Desperada, previously titled What Wild Ecstasy.

By making this script available as a supplement to her book, Adapting Your Novel Into an Award-Winning Script (And Why You Don?t Want To, A Cautionary Tale) she allows its use for educational purposes only. No other rights are granted with the purchase of this script.

"I have written a book for others like me who dreamed of seeing their novels on the silver screen, Adapting Your Novel Into an Award-Winning Script (And Why You Don?t Want To, A Cautionary Tale) which heavily references this script and the source novel. So for those who want to really dig in and compare the two, here is the script you?ve been asking for to go with the novel, which has been available for several years."

The formatting in this script simulates an industry script, but the margins and layout are not exactly the same, nor do screenwriters use double-sided pages. These choices were made to keep the production costs as low as possible.
