I’ve imbibed a little bit, so I find myself loosened up enough to write about something meaningless — in real terms — like the following. I saw a Tik-Tok where Dua Lipa said she liked “dark thrillers” when it came to novels and movies and that got me thinking, “Hey, I’m writing a thriller!”
I know that she has a nascent movie career and, as such, given I have a huge ego and am always daydreaming about how Hollywood is going to adapt these novels I’m working on even before I finish them, obviously I came up with a perfect character for Dua Lipa to play in the inevitable movie adaption of the novels.
There is a small — but crucial character — in the series that Ms. Lipa would be perfect to play should I win the fucking creative lottery and stick the landing with this first novel to the point that Hollywood comes knocking. (This is all very dumb given I haven’t even finished the second draft of the novel, but I’m just daydreaming.)
Anyway. I’m kind of drunk at the moment. It will be interesting to see if I manage to stay sober long enough to actually query this first novel. Wink.
