The Untold Emmett Till Murder Written as a novel

EMMETT by Zalin Grant was first a screenplay which was registered with the U.S. Copyright Office in 2005. Using the same words, I then turned it into a novel. I asked the Copyright office if I should register it as a novel. They told me in a correspondence on record that it wasn't necessary as long as the same scenes and dialogue appeared in the novel. It was also registered at the same time with the Writer's Guild of America, West. That is why I wrote Copyright 2017 in the Amazon submission. The material has been under copyright since 2005.
