The Lost And Found of Years
“It’s Jasper. Says he wants a Montreal story for a new anthology he’s preparing, something about cities. Go crazy, he says.
Big money, he says. Hard/soft deal with Knopf/Vintage. HBO planning mini-series based on his concept, adapting stories from his book for TV. Put in all the sex you want, he tells me. It’s cable TV. Money, he says again.
Right. Money. But any of it for me? I ask.
Tell Jasper about Bestial Acts deal. The first story about my fictional bookshop, Lost Pages. Haynes ...bought the rights, made a film with Depp playing Lucas. Big indie hit. Didn’t see a dime. Not even a penny. Pringle took it all. Read your contract, he said. Fucking publishers.
Tell Jasper I’ll think about it.
Money sounds like a good thing. No story ideas, though.
Take the dog out for a walk. Look around. Maybe something in the neighbourhood will spark an idea or two.MoreLess
