novelising
Turning into prose
Novelising is the British spelling of novelizing—converting something into novel form.
A screenwriter might novelise a film, or a journalist might novelise true events.
The process typically means expanding and adding interior detail: She spent a year novelising her grandmother's wartime letters.
