Awards, film festival selections, and new editions
* My blog Traveling Cats has won The Bloggers' Lounge Blogger Of The Year Award. A big thank you to everyone who voted and shared. What a great way to end 2014.
* A Good Man (Un homme bien) is going to India! The French film adaptation of my vampire story, will be shown at the Imphal International Film Festival in India on December 27 and 28.
* A Good Man (Un homme bien) has also been officially selected for Film Festival System D in Brussels, Belgium. The festival starts today.
* I concocted horror movie quizzes for an upcoming trivia book by the makers of Horror 101 and Hidden Horror. The book will have over 1200 questions covering hundreds upon hundreds of films. The working title is Horror U: Twelve Twisted Trimesters of Horror Trivia. It'll probably land in January in both ebook and physical form.
* My supernatural thriller Drowned Sorrow is available in a new paperback edition with a cover by award-winning designer Gilles Vranckx. Some places where you can get the book are Amazon US, Amazon UK, Amazon FR, and B&N.
* The Strange Color Of Your Body's Tears (the movie for which I modeled for the poster) is now available on DVD/Blu-Ray and Instant Video. It's an excellent film, so be sure to watch it.
* My short film script Next To Her will most probably be directed by Fedrik De Beul (Août 1914). The movie will be in Dutch, but I'll make an English version of the script available on Kindle, Nook, etc. The cover is being made as I'm writing this. If you have a blog and want to do a cover reveal, review, or interview I'd greatly appreciate it. You may contact me at eeriestories75(at)gmail(dot)com.

OT: I'm not in London, I'm afraid, the pictures that my blog is currently publishing I took about a year ago.

ReplyDeleteHuge congrats Vanessa. So many achievements to celebrate. Gives me warm fuzzies to read about talent being recognised. :)
ReplyDeleteI finally left a review for your awesome story Drowned Sorrow. I must review the others soon too. To my shame, I allow reviews to be pushed down my To Do list too often. PS: I love that new cover... it is perfect for the story.
I have/am reading Horror 101, which is proving illuminating :)
Hope (I'm sure) A Good Man will be a knock out at the festivals in India and Belgium. How exciting (although, I'd have gnawed my fingers to stumps by now) X
