Hi Fiona and Amanda,
I loved reading your guest blog Amanda.
I often think how wonderful it would be to have one of my books optioned for a movie and to collaborate on the screen play – in fact I was in Los Angeles last week and even picked out my temporary home in the Hollywood hills for the couple of months I’d be working there…but enough of fantasy. As you say, the reality is very hard work.
I wish you all the success in the world and know that ‘The Olive Sisters’ will be a smash when it finally goes into production – imagine the stars vying for the roles!!
Good luck with ‘Last Days of the Empire Hotel’.
Cheers,
Lisa

What a great idea having your car for an office!!! Maybe I should do that… lock the doors- I wouldn’t even have to take it out of the car port!
What an exciting writing career so far Amanda! Very inspiring. Good luck with the screen play and your future writing.

How wonderful to have your new book reprinted so soon after publication, Amanda! Sounds like script writing is more hard work than writing a novel… At least you’re the one transforming your story into a screen play:-)
