What people are saying
But also, it is going to be made into a movie. We’re already in the works with it.
No, we’re going to get a bigger actress, like a bigger name. I’m producing it, though.
Well, the book comes out November 10th, and so we’re working on the packaging and stuff like that. I can’t give all the tea away, but we got a really good director on board. So, can’t give the names yet. I’m really excited.
