Part #4 of our chat with author @Laurie Beach LUV: Which book of yours do you wish a producer would adapt onto the screen? Laurie: This is a fun question! When I’m writing a book, I see it in my head like a movie. It’s almost like I’m writing it for the screen. As far as my Crickley Creek series, there’s a fire in the first book and a flood in the second, so unless a big production company wants to invest in some special effects, or a smaller one wants to cut those scenes, those books might be difficult to produce. Although, I am neither a producer nor a director, so what do I know? The book I think is perfect for a movie is CHRISTMAS IN CRICKLEY CREEK. There’s an old house that’s as much a character as any human, and a hidden speakeasy dating back to prohibition—which happened to end on December 5, 1933, so the secret room was already decorated for Christmas. The book is about second chance love, mistakes, and family secrets. It’s visual, hopeful, it has just enough Christmas magic to ensure a happy ending.
