One Step Closer To The Big Screen
Yippee! My screenplay adaptation of “The Improbable Wonders of Moojie Littleman” has gone out for review. I couldn't believe my ears when, after two years of working on it, my producer, John Crye, finally said the words, "It's ready!"
Description of "Halfkin": A physically-disabled orphan discovers he has miraculous abilities similar to the Light-Eaters, a primordial race that warns intolerant locals in early-1900s America of an upcoming natural disaster.
In order to make the 294-page story fit into less than 2 hours on screen, we had to cut a few characters and scenes. Pappy and Auntie Tilda are now the central the focus of Moojie's domestic squabbles. Light-Eaters, Ninti, Babylonia, Sarru'kan, and others remain true to the novel. Dear Moojie is exactly the same character. Early on, he struggles with disabilities and unrecognized healing powers, while searching for a sense of belonging.
More news: Book 2 of The Moojie Littleman Trilogy is nearly done. “The Boy Who Killed Time” picks up four years later, when 18 year-old Moojie, now hailed in his hometown as a healer, escapes family and worshipful throngs to find the inter-dimensional realm where his true love awaits. What he finds when he gets there is completely unexpected.
I'll keep you posted on any news!
