I've just signed the contract for The Wolf's Mate, the sequel to The Wolf's Sister.

We're talking about releasing 1 & 2 as a single print volume after epub, and then my writing the third part as a short novel! More details as and when I have them.

Yay!

We've just finished a chinese takeaway to celebrate, are enjoying a nice pinot grigio and watching Ladyhawk. It's still wonderful. I saw it in the cinema when it was first out. And I've seen it since, but not for a while. it still hold up, the humour is lovely, the hawk and the wolf... well I have a soft spot for birds of prey and wolves. And oh my, the music is SOOOOOOO Alan Parsons Project (which is understandable when you know who did the score! I keep annoying [profile] e_w_h  by singing Eye in the Sky and bopping up an down!)

Congrats! Yay!


Yes, I still have something of a soft spot for Ladyhawke, a fantasy film that managed to use a small cast well and invested some real emotion into it (largely through Broderick as the POV character, in effect; it would have been much worse without him). Rutger Hauer did some great stuff in those days.

Hauer was perfectly cast. He looks like a serious kick-ass knight who could do some damage with that sword. Unlike some other knights in films of late (Kingdom of Heaven, I'm looking at you!).

Congrats!! That is awesome news.

Yes, I too have a soft spot for Ladyhawke. My University was a test market for that flick. We picked up tickets, went to the theater, (well before it was released,) then had to fill out questionarres about various scenes and endings.

When it finally came out it was incredibly well attended for my small college town. Remember I attended school in the middle of nowhere. When it was released to HBO, or Showtime, it was on constantly on the dorms televisions with all sorts of armchair critics in attendance discussing how and why they voted what way or another...

Rutger Hauer was fabulous, so was Matt Broderick, and of course Rumpole as the monk!

Yay! I'll be first in line when that comes out. :)

I love Ladyhawke, although I'm too young to remember it, but not as much as I love The Princess Bride. And Willow was great just because of the brownies. Don't get me started on cheesy 80s fantasy movies, I collect them. :D
