Movie Deal?

I often get asked if I am going to make "Root Karbunkulus" into a movie. I can understand why, of course as the question usually comes after viewing the book trailer and also because of my background in film and theatre. But, while I have to admit that a movie version of my book would be truly amazing, I am not the one to do it :)

I am definitely proud of the trailer especially since it was shot for under a hundred bucks. I had wrangled my sister and her kids into some scenes and Stogie (the pooch on the left) gave us the rabid dog close up despite his 15 pounds soaking wet. I won't detail how we did the big fire scene other than to say it was a complete fluke and had Rob known what I was up to, he'd've nixed it for sure!

It was great fun no doubt, but as to a full blown movie, I will have to commit that into the hands of the Celstars...or Spielberg...or both...:)

Just for fun, though, if it did ever happen to find its way to the silver screen....the part of Auntie Octavia would be a blast to play....hmmmm....maybe I could start working on my lip slapping horse laugh now...

I am off to Las Vegas to the cheese of Barry Manilow and the raunch of Bette Midler. When I get back we can talk about the writing process as this is also a question that comes up frequently.

With joy,
