Fantasing Again

If one of your dreams came true about your writing would it be your book turned into a movie?

If so, who do you envisage playing the main characters.

For me this would be easy it would be my idol Julia Roberts. I have watched in her many films my favourite being Erin Brockovich, strange how I am still drawn to law.

When I was studying law my favourite programmes were The Bill, Judge John Deed, Kavanagh QC, Police Camera Action, Police Stop, Casualty, Frost among others.

My favourite film apart from Erin Brockovich was "The Man Who Sued God" starring Billy Connolly.

The first time I went to The Royal Show with Steve I wore a red dress with white polka dots on it. It was a hot day so I bought a sun hat. When I tried it on I put my arms out like Julia Roberts had done in Pretty Woman at the polo match, Steve laughed and from that moment on he called me "Pretty Woman".

I wonder if any films influence your writing and if so which ones?

Best wishes

  1. I love Erin Brockovich too. I write about films I've seen occasionally but I don't know if they influence the way I write, I'll have to think about that one! Thanks for visiting my blog by the way.

  4. Someone asked me that the other day.

    I've almost finished my first novel and my first thought would be Tom Hanks.

    An everyman who finds himself faced with life changing challenges; that's my MC and few play that kind of role better than Tom Hanks.

    Or James Stewart; an older generation's Tom Hanks.

    The Americans do that type of role better than us Brits I think.
