Awesomeness!!

Okay, so I've made mention of this in a couple of my regular haunts on the web and it suddenly occured ot me that this is probably something I should also mention on my own dang blog!!

So.

It was announced in Publisher's Marketplace that: "Lesley Livingston's WONDROUS STRANGE has been optioned to screenwriter David Hayter's Dark Hero Productions (Watchmen, X2, and XMEN) & Jeff Sagansky, with Hayter penning the script, by Brendan Deneen on behalf of Objective Entertainment and Jessica Regel at Jean V. Naggar Literary Agency."

And this is what David Hayter himself had to say in response to the announcement being posted over at HardcoreNerdity:

Speaking for Dark Hero, "We are incredibly excited to translate this remarkable book into the world of visual media. Ms. Livingston is an amazing new talent, and the world she has created is rife with fantastic images, compelling story-lines and complex characters."

Keep you fingers crossed that Sonny and Kelley and company will soon make their way to a screen near you!
