My book, the movie

No, Peter Jackson hasn't come calling yet. "My book, the movie" is the name of a cool blog that asks authors if their books were going to be made into movies, who would they cast in the leading roles? Screenwriter Marshal Zeringue runs the blog as well as several others including the Campaign for the American Reader -- a site to encourage people to read more books. Gotta love that!

My first casting choice for Raine is actress Felicia Day (Buffy the Vampire Slayer, The Guild, and coming up this season, she has a guest role on House -- I love that show.) Her blog (The Flog) is on my daily visit list.

You may have noticed that Webmaster Todd now has the "Shop for Gear" button/link up on my home page and my blog page. Click on it and you'll be taken to my online Cafepress store -- Raine Gear. T-shirts, bumper stickers, mugs, mousepads, pillows, hats, bags, and more. Have fun browsing!

Tomorrow's topic will be on whether author cover quotes increase book sales.


And starting on Monday and probably running through next week will be Round 2 of "Cast that Character." We did it a few months ago with Magic Lost, Trouble Found, now we're going to have fun casting the characters in Armed & Magical. If Peter Jackson did come calling, who would be your suggestions to play my characters? And we'll be covering both books. Think about it this weekend and be ready to play come Monday morning.

For Monday's blog, who would you suggest to play Rudra Muralin, Carnades Silvanus, and Banan Ryce?

I love all your casting choices (though you are the author, you probably have the best idea :-P), of course I was looking at the Tam and Mychael choices and was like "yes! spot on!" and also "yummmmmmmmm"
