Another Book turned into a movie

Just found out today there is a movie planned for release from one of my favorite book series,Dragonlance Chronicles. The books were written by first Laura and Tracy Hickman then by Tracy and Margaret Weis. Now that I think of it I don't remember reading any written with Laura.

Here is the site for the movie: www.dragonlance-movie.com

I hope the movie does well. A course as always I also hope the movie's story does the books justice.
Interesting thing I found out today. I read the newest book for Oprah's Book Club,Pillars of the Earth about 2 years ago. A friend,Jim told me about it and gave me his copy. Just an interesting fact.

Writer's Strike

From the day the news showed Jimmy Kimmel giving food out to the strikers all I've wanted was to join them ask 'when's lunch?' and when it comes grab all I could and run off. Obviously since there have been no news reports of me it's gone off with out anyone noticing. NO I haven't done it but I keep thinking of doing it. Especially Veteran's day when they had their kids. I thought "a day they have kids is sure to be a big lunch day".

From the News coverage of the strike I would think the news is taking the striker's side however most of the times they show them they make me against the writers. Mostly it's the amount of times they show it. This is a problem I've always had with the news they get stuck on one story and keep going to it. Some of the people they talk to are just annoying too. The only non-annoying one I can think of was Jimmy Kimmel and he was avoiding the cameras at the time (and he had food). It also reminded me of how many shows on now that I did not like. When you have to keep naming 3 or 4 shows that you would miss if the writers were gone then that shows there just aren't that many good shows. I do hope the strike gets resolved even if it just so it won't be on the news anymore.

Shameful
Did you know the exact same thing happened to me. I walked.


Dolls and About Love

Today I saw a really good movie "Dolls" (ドールス). The theme of the movie was eternal love. It reminds me of another movie I liked a lot, "About Love". I was surprised I liked both since they both were romantic stories. They both had 3 different stories that intertwined but didn't effect each other. An interesting thing I found while watching Dolls was that even with them being similar to each other they were also very different.

NaNoWriMonth

NaNoWriMonth

This morning I started my novel for nanowrite. NaNoWriMo stands for National Novel writing Month. I stayed up all night to start at 12 however around 1am realized I was sleepy so couldn't think straight. I've done it once before a couple years ago but didn't finish in time. I then forgot until someone mentioned it this year so I was able to sign up in October. The idea is to write a 175-page about 50,000-word novel by midnight, November 30. I now have over 2 pages done and hope to get to 4 by tonight,
oh if anyone is interested the site is: www.nanowrimo.org/
