I've been brooding about what to call a proposed new form of fiction based on the evolution of the screenplay. Actually it occurred to me the perfect name is staring at me. What distinguishes a screenplay is that it is story-driven, not language-driven. So in the new form, instead of "a novel by" say simply "a story by." That would do it.
More about this later. I'm thinking of writing an essay that clarifies and formally proposes what I have in mind.
