Ohayo Thank you for responding, Lois. I have wondered many times what would Miles be like if any director embraced the challenge of re-enacting his character on the big screen and if they would be able to present his complex personality. Quite the challenge, I would think. I love the books so much that I can’t keep but wonder if it could be done and if it would meet the image in my head :)

Ivan Hello, Madam! I love Vorkosigan saga, read them all when I was a child. Which filmdirectors and producers have your sent your scripts to? I think the initiative has to come from you. As a fan I would love to see Vorkosigan saga produced by the best filmdirectors and broadcasted via Netflix. How about J.J. Abrams? It says here he is:
"David Lonner, his former agent, has since represented Abrams as a manager, and attorney Alan Wertheimer also negotiates on Abrams’ behalf."

I've Googled his attorney's contacts:
