At the moment it's unfoirtunate that Del Torro is off the project due to unreconcile differences. (He pulled out since it was taking too long to get picked up by the studio (MGM) and he did not wish to stay the 6 years to see what happens and what will happen if it does get picked up.) Those who have decided to go into the project (P.J., Fran Walsh (forgive me if I get her last name misspelled) seem to wish to have the project picked up and see the work into fruition.
Thanks! At the moment I'm writing a Haiku a day and posting it on a blog I started February 9. After asking for an end date on FaceBook, a friend from high school said end date December 31. But I May do it a year and a day so Feb 9, 2010-February 9, 2011.
Other than that, I'm trying to write a short story I'm calling "Dreamer's Wishing". First it was going to be some kind of cross between a Mulan and Cinderella but I'm thinking of going back to my most favorite fairy tale: Beauty & the Beast. I'll post it when it's done or at least email you guys a copy if you ask.
Think kings, queens, knights, and strong female figures who rise up in a male-dominant world to fight for righteousness. It holds somewhat of an epicness of the main characters in the various books on Tortall who come triumph after a series of struggles. Me likey strong female characters who aren't over the toply written. They are easier to connect to thanks to the author, Ms. Pierce.
