'Red', Bruce Willis & The Wild Rose Press

So, I heard some exciting news from one of my publishers (The Wild Rose Press) recently. The crazy thing is that my post title up there is totally true.

The Wild Rose Press was asked to supply the paperback books for the set of the movie 'RED'. Although we aren't certain if any of the books are actually seen on screen, we were thrilled to be a part of this exciting adventure!

RED is an action comedy film, set for release on October 15, 2010 (USA). The film is written by Warren Ellis and directed by Robert Schwentke, and stars Bruce Willis, Mary-Louise Parker, Morgan Freeman, John Malkovich, Helen Mirren, Karl Urban, Richard Dreyfuss, Brian Cox, James Remar, Julian McMahon, Ernest Borgnine, Michelle Nolden, Amber Gaiennie and Audrey Wasilewski.

Movie synopsis: RED is the story of Frank Moses (Willis), a former black-ops CIA agent, who is now living a quiet life. That is, until the day a hi-tech assassin shows up intent on killing him. With his identity compromised and the life of the woman he cares for, Sarah (Parker), endangered, Frank reassembles his old team (Freeman, Malkovich and Mirren) in a last ditch effort to survive. "Red" is based on the DC Comics graphic novel of the same name by Warren Ellis.

I heard that Mary-Louise Parker's character loves romance novels--romantic suspense specifically. So they needed a lot of romance novels to have her read in the film and have in set decoration. Cute or what?? Watch the trailer. The movie looks pretty good too. ;)


Surgery Update

Well, it's been over four weeks since I had my surgery and I am finally feeling back to my good old, regular self. My recovery has been slower that I had expected. A couple simple complications that brought pain. It kept me from doing a lot of things around my house. I couldn't even drive or sit up for long periods--and forget sitting in front of computer.

Last week things started to get better and I am feeling pretty close to normal now--whatever that it. I can drive, sit at a desk and I even got in the pool this week. I still get worn out pretty easily and have a little discomfort but other than that I'm good. :)

Well, school will be starting again soon which will take up a good portion of my time, but I hope to get some writing & promotional things accomplished before then so stay tuned. Have a good day.
