My plan is to turn my novella "The Horror at Cold Springs" into a screenplay, just as soon as I teach myself how to properly format a script.

Have you considered screenwriting software? Sometimes, there are some good sales on it.
There are a few free programs, too, I think.

I downloaded Celtx. It looks useful and was free.

If you're interested in screenwriting books,
Save the Cat
is the best EVER! Also, Tom Lazarus has a couple of good screenwriting books. (These are the ones I found the most useful, and I took a couple of classes under the authors.)
