The perfect Luthor scenario

-


Every author pictures their books becoming best-sellers and even having movies made from them.

I'm no different. I've pictured every one of my books being made into movies (especially when one of them was actually under contract).

The main book I see this happening to is Luthor. Just the story and settings would make a great film.

The perfect Luthor scenario . . .

Word of mouth begins to take hold and book sales increase. More reviews are posted, and the name Luthor is begin to get known.

I have sent copies to director Guillermo del Toro, I also add him to tweets about Luthor on Twitter. In this perfect scenario, he takes notice and reads the book. And as anyone who has read the Luthor's story knows, that would be all it would take. 
Mr. del Toro contacts me immediately with interest of making a movie of Luthor.
Of course, I say yes. 😄

In his movie The Shape of Water, Guillermo del Toro took a deaf woman and a sea creature, and made them fall in love. And won several academy awards for it.
With Luthor, he will do it again. 

In this perfect scenario, the sets of the movie, the makeup for Luthor, the acting, it all adds up to another Oscar nominated movie for del Toro.

My perfect cast?
If I could turn back time, and have the cast I envision when I wrote Luthor more than twenty years ago, it would look like this:

Luthor-Leonardo DiCaprio (ironically, this one could stay the same, since he will be in makeup)
Amanda-Juliette Lewis
Joshua-Brad Pitt
Garvin-Jack Nicholson
Lillie-Dianne Wiest
Dr. Keith-Eddie Albert

Of course, the performances would win nominations by almost the entire cast, that adds to the multiple nominations for the movie, including best film.

In this perfect scenario, Steve and I make a trip to California for Academy Awards.
In this perfect scenario, I wouldn't be as nervous and scared shitless as I know I will be in real life.
But I'll have Steve right there next to me, so I know it'll be fine.

That is what will happen one day! 

It all starts with word of mouth taking hold. So let's get everyone to know the boy, and please tell at least one person today about Luthor.

Here's a link to Luthor's AMAZON page. 

Thank you!

Stay safe. Mask up. Protect others. 💓

We've started a new year. We've started a new opportunity to be a better person. A happier person. It's no secret that I'm one of the worst bloggers around. Why? Because no one reads it. And that had been a difficult thing for me to handle for years. So I feel I don't need to try.  2018 was a bad year. No only because there's a new problem with the cunt in the White House every day, but with people in general. People have gotten more violent and uncaring. As a society, it is clear that we are declining.  It's been extremely difficult attempting to stay positive over the last 12+ months. But that is going to change. I am going to fight for positivity. No more depression. No more doubting myself or my writing. If people don't want to read my blog, big fucking deal! I don't care anymore. The time for change is now! No more thoughts of suicide (yes, there have been days). No more self-depreciation. I will do whatever I can to be successful

Freedom of Speech?

  It’s been a while since I’ve posted here. It’s been a while since I’ve done any type of writing. I don’t even have a website anymore. I wasn’t planning on writing anything, probably eve again, but lately, things have been changing.  The “Supreme” Court has been making very dangerous changes to the laws in our country. Particularly six of the judges. Six CONSERVATIVE judges, who are forcing us to go back to the 1950’s! Their latest stunt is allowing businesses to discriminate against LGBT+ people if they don’t want to serve them, because it’s against their religion. They’re claiming it falls under the First Amendment: freedom of speech.  Oh, yeah, we’ll, here’s some freedom of speech for you: Fuck them!!! Fuck all Republicans!!! Fuck Donald tRump and his illiterate cult. Fuck all the ignorant morons who claim being “woke” is bad.  Here’s, some freedom of speech: I wish I was able to tell the cunt that walks in wearing a MAGA terrorist hat that their not welcome in our place of busines

Finished another one

After an almost seven month break from writing, yesterday I finished another book. It is the first installment of a new new trilogy called My Leprechaun . The first book is titled The End of the Rainbow . I'm excited about this series, but I'm also filled with angst. Finishing a book and getting it ready to put out into the world and see what it does is usually an exciting time. There's always that chance that this book will be the one that puts my name on the map. In pure blog openness,  that's what I had hoped for when I released Reunion last October. It was my first ghost story, and I thought it would make a huge splash. But it didn't. I fought for months just to get a few reviews.  The excitement fizzled and faded. And something inside me turned off. That was the start of my break from writing.  I was sure I was done working so hard for nothing in return. But there was this story that I had wanted to tell for years. I had almost finished the first draft months
