I'm back from NYC, after a very productive weekend with the C-Squared guys, Charlie Spickler (screen writer/director) and Ed Morrill, producer (who greeted me at the airport with a sign: "Lynn McUnpronouncable" LOL) They're great guys and really want this project to do well. Charlie's a fan himself and is looking for ways to get as much of the story to screen as possible. I will tell you up front, getting it all in is simply impossible. Some things will have to be left out, some combined with other events. That's just the way it works. The hope is to preserve the backbone of the plot and the personalities of the characters. Charlie has committed to maintaining the relationship between Alec and Seregil at the level that I've intended--important, but not the main point of the story. There's actually very little of it in the first book at all. Seregil is being a gentleman and Alec is oblivious. ;-) So keep your fingers crossed and send us lots of virtual coffee.
