It’s been a while since I have blogged. Switched from part time to full time work, and at nights. Ouch! I have managed to keep pitching The Vampire Dancer Saga Parts 1-3 as a TV Show, with each book being a different season.
I am continuing the story from TVDS Part 3. So some characters will still be in Egypt as well as the US. The US will face a drastic change in the upcoming book. And those who were once villains will become the good guys (Salome) and those who were the good guys will be the villains in the next book (Granny, Big Daddy).
The hardest part of doing a book is not the story ideas, but finding the right graphics that tell the story. Initially, I had a totally different plan for Part 3, but as it turned out, I found the artwork first and based the stories a bit on the pictures.
This time around, I am having the hardest time trying to find graphics, because the story is coming first.
Drake and Gia will be major players in the next book. And this time we get to root for Salome to save the United States.
Dream Cast: I know the casting director will have the final say, but it never hurts to dream and share my vision
