I have some.

How would you like to proceed ?
I could PM you what I have so far
or, if you have google drive, I can share the document with you.

I wouldn't worry so much about the format....just yet.
Story is royal so stage directions can wait.
Formatting is a pain though, as they will pass on your screen/drama play if its not in the correct form, but there are programs and templates out there to assist.

If you post it to this site, the formatting will be thrown off unless you use HTML formatting within the original document or redo it all. I've noticed that the screenplays I submitted even if I had them centered and blocked correctly, everything will justify to the left and any simultaneous lines become issues.
For what it's worth
For what it's worth, I avoid reading scripts or screenplays. I find the format too distracting.
Unfortunatly I have to agree with DAB
And it's why you'll never find that many (if any at all) screen play/movie scripts sold at bookstores.
