Shelby asked Jake Needham:

Are you available to turn a book into a screenplay?

Jake Needham Shelby, I used to do things like that for a living, but I've pretty much put screenwriting aside now. The last thing I worked on was adapting my own novel, THE BIG MANGO, in collaboration with Jim Gandolpini back when he was finishing up on 'The Sopranos.' We worked on that sucker forever, but then Jim died, and so did the project, and I pretty much swore off screenwriting forever.
