So I'm writing a trilogy right now. I'm always nervous about revealing too may plot details online when my work isn't done. Paranoia?
I'll just say that the books bring together a few of our most 'ancient' and 'strong' cultures. Three heroes, each representing one of these cultures, must trek the plains of the past, and the skyline of the future in order to fulfill a prophecy that was spoken of since before the time of Moses; and also to ascertain the destiny, and bond, that they share with one another. They must work together to find a remedy for an alien-parasitic race that has ravished the earth for centuries, turning the thoughts and desires of mankind towards material things, and sometimes hedonistic ways. The parasite has become deep rooted in the world, sharing a single consciousness that is bent on killing the will of man, so that it becomes the dominant race...through the human race.
Our heroes, united by the common desire to save their people and their planet, must face many dangers on the road to their shared destiny---including demons, dragons, a certain famous giant crocodile, shape shifting ninjas, an army of nano tech soldiers & ruthless assassins.
So anyway, I basically just winged that summary.
I plan on developing a screenplay(s) for the trilogy after the books are, I'm confident they will make great movies, but my question is...Is there any demand for book/movies?
It seems like there is, because you see a lot coming out lately....Probably because of the story quality of the books; they are usually very original, unlike their movie counterparts that often massacre the paper superior.
Do these authors really sell out their stories like that? It's basically equivalent to pimping your baby to me.
John Carter, Pirates of the Caribbean, Lord of the Rings, Percy jackson, the Lincoln Lawyer, Girl with the Dragon Tattoo ....just to name a few.
