Panel of Experts: How do you feel fiction-writing and screen-writing compare?

Question: How do you feel fiction-writing and screen-writing compare? Gothic.net’s Panel of Experts weight in on the ways fiction-writing and screenwriting compare.

Some of the answers here are eye-openingly unique and some are horror classics.
