Robert asked Jameson Parker:

Have you ever considered writing a classic western story set in the old west. With your knowledge of horses, cattle, wranglers etc. It might be a natural story to write?

Jameson Parker Funny you should ask. I'm working on one at the moment... Let me rephrase that: I have been working on one, but I hit a stumbling block, put it away for about a year, and just sent it out to a trusted friend--Dan Bronson ( http://hollywood-nobody.com/ ) who used to teach American literature and creative writing before he quit academia to become a screenwriter--in the hope he can figure out what I need to do next. He probably will: he's a remarkably gifted man.
As for Kirk Cameron productions: until I get some breathing room with various writing projects (including a bunch of magazine articles that will actually put some beans and rice on the kitchen table) I can't even think about trying to hawk any book for possible movie production. Writing and movie-making are two very different worlds and mindsets, and multi-tasking has never been my strong suit.

I miss you! You're going to write a blog post again sometime, right? Have you read Stephen King's memoir, On Writing? (Quite probably the only Stephen King book I'll read and the only one I'll fall asleep while reading. But that aside, it's fascinating. So if you haven't you really should read it.)

Virginia Garrett asked Jameson Parker:

Have you read The Body Keeps the Score by Bessel Van Der Kolk? It's on PTSD. I'm eyeball deep in it now and highly recommend it. I miss your writings on your blog.

Bob asked Jameson Parker:

Any chance we will see a movie based upon on of your novels? I was thinking the Horseman at Midnight might make a nice little movie. You might want to direct it or star as the old man.
