Hey, Carey --

The producer is Stephanie Allain, she discovered John Singleton and produced "Boyz in the Hood" and the upcoming "Biker Boyz" with Laurence Fishburn and Larenz Tate. The screenwriter has sold quite a few scripts but none have made it to screen yet.

My input will be very small, and I made my peace with that before I agreed to sell the rights. I was more concerned that the producer/studio owned the rights to the story but not the rights to my characters. That was the main issue with me and it's been worked out after eight long months of negotiating.

I've listened to the ideas of both people, and I saw a early draft of the script and I think they both get it. We'll see what happens...plenty of books get sold or optioned but never actually make it to screen.

Speaking of book to screen...I saw "Adaptation" today. Has anyone seen that?

Peace All,

Nichelle
