All of us have dreams and my dream is to see a movie based on my last book. Indeed, I have already started to look for my dream. Keep reading!!
You may know my last book, (the third one, the second in Spanish (my second was in English)) was published last year. (Buy my book El Verano de Natalie Davis )
MAKING A MOVIE INSPIRED BY MY BOOK
I would love to see a movie adaptation of my book. To say the truth, I wrote the book thinking about a movie adaptation. What is more, there are multiple references to movies I love and I have watched. The main protagonist watches a good movie every night with her grandmother (you should read my novel, perhaps you love it).
FAMOUS FILMMAKERS-TWITTER
If only I could get some important readings!!! As a result, I thought to send my novel to famous filmmakers. We have some important in Spain (Pedro Almodóvar without going any further, has won two Academy Awards). Some are very international likewise.
I looked for 2 famous filmmakers on Twitter and I offered them my novel. One of them was J. A. Bayona and the second one is Álex de la Iglesia. None of them has answered my tweets but I felt great contacting them.

MOVIE PRODUCERS-LINKEDIN
Another thing I have done is to look for movie producers on Linkedin. There are a lot, but not all of them are rich and powerful or are interested in reading my novel. I got one person interested and I am going to send him my novel. This is positive and it is what I need. I need professional people who have influence and power and are interesting in the novel.
IN THE END
At least I obtained something positive. There is one professional filmmaker who made a movie set in my village and based on a novel. I contacted him and he wants to read the novel.
It would be magical if someone relevant reads and loves my novel, making a movie thereby. I know, I should have a literary agent to do this kind of tasks but I have not I am afraid.
I was filled with emotion contacting professional producers and famous filmmakers. However, I do not know if one day somebody will make a movie inspired by my book!!!
What do you think? There will be someone who wants to read my novel making a film subsequently? Do share and comment!!!!
Congrats to you and your book!
Thank you, thank you very much. I hope one day the book is translated into English
Wow!! I do not know how I missed this post. Is this your latest photo?
Not, no really. This was 3 years ago
Thanks a lot. I am going to publish the second part soon.
Thanks a lot. I think I will write about my new book here. I hope it will be published very soon, I am waiting since August to see it published.
I ordered your English book after reading a couple of reviews. It sounds like a lot of fun 🙂 As to the question of a film adaptation, I know nothing, except that if you don’t try, it certainly won’t happen!
Thanks a lot. It is very kind of you. I am flattered. Hope you like it.
I promise to let you know 🙂
Thanks a lot. It wasn´t easy to write because English is not my first language.
i think you can make your own indie movie, based on your own novel.
Yes, that´s a possibility, but the best is to have a famous filmmaker interested!!!!!!
Writing a book is no easy feat. Having it adapted to film is icing on the cake. It would be wonderful if your book could be adapted to film. If they ever make a movie I hope they don’t change the title. It’s memorable.
Thanks a lot. The title should be the same
You will. Rejection is part of the publishing industry but if you press on, you will realize your dream. Literary agents are good but they tend to be more discouraging.
Thanks a lot for your comment
I looked at your book. I will buy it before the end of the year.
Thanks a lot. It is very kind of you!!!!
Unfortunately, I don’t know your books. I’d be happy to read any.
Thanks a lot. I will be pleased
Ok. Feel free to do it. Thanks a lot. I have just sent two posts now for revision

There are a few tips and tricks I can share – if that would help.
Good luck to the movie and I admire your talent for writing a book.
Thanks a lot. It would be magical to see the movie
I suppose it could happen. Best of luck to you.
Thanks a lot, it would be magical. Thanks again
