It was so cold outside when we were filming! And VERY windy. Our fabulous story board papers were almost lost to the lake! Several times! All the actors were freezing, and in between takes I was shivering (and I never shiver....never). I was so excited that Gillian let me portray a character in her story. (spoiler: I die:) The whole experience was super fun, we all hung out at Gillian's house and had hot chocolate afterwards :) Yay for hot chocolate!!! It's too bad we started it so late that Adam (my brother) couldn't enter it in the San Antonio Christian Film Festival. It will probably turn out too short anyway. So...
Here is what the book cover will look like when it comes out:
Darkness reigns unchallenged.
For the villagers on the accursed Island, life has only
one meaning - death. Bound to the Island by the curse, the villagers suffer
beneath the iron claw of the serpent, daily breathing the poison of his breath
and dying to appease his insatiable appetite.
When Marya’s parents are slain by the serpent for their
belief in a legendary king, she becomes an Outcast. Struggling to survive and
avoid the vengeance of the Tribunal, Marya is torn between legend and the harsh
reality of the Island. Yet when a forgotten promise springs to life, she cannot
help wondering if the old stories might in fact be true. And if they are, will
the promise prove stronger than the curse?
Out of Darkness Rising is being published by Flaming Pen Press and will be released summer 2012. It is an allegorical fantasy novella intended for a young adult audience.
This is so cool! I'm so excited for Gillian. She is a great writer. Be sure to visit her blog: http://ofbattlesdragonsandswordsofadamant.blogspot.com/p/innocent-blood.html
