It looks like it’s getting a little traction again...since Drake started playing pool and coming into my world...he found out his mom was once a hot shot herself.

Long story short, Drake met with developers for a movie, they like him for the part. They closed the meeting started chatting sports...Drake naturally (loving pool now) turned the conversation towards pool...and a little about me. When the meeting was over Drake called said "Mom their mouths were wide open" I think your story is going to be a movie. Course that made me smile hearing it from him, but I have to admit its not the first time I heard that.

Well a few days later I went to see Drake...he showed me a text....from the developers, they told him...nice meeting they can’t wait to work with him blah, blah, blah...and BTW we "LOVE" your moms story.

They are RIGHT NOW looking for the right writer...anyone here write? They may need a technical writer...I would love to have one ready?
Do you have work in print already? Who knows...it could happen :)
Hollywood is looking for Faith Based stories...I do have one of them ;)
3 cups of coffee ;) and a little excited...thanks for letting me share!

Very happy for you and wish you the best of luck!

There are a few writers here who have done a book or two, I wish I had the chops for it.

Can't wait to see it.
 
Robin,

I hope this does pan out, I'm sure it'll sell! Good luck and keep us updated.

Aww, c'mon Mom!

Let your boy think he is more famous than you are! You know, one of those parental sacrifices!!:grin-square::wink:

Best of luck with the project!

This could be a great thing for pool. Who would you want to play you in a movie.

Drake said someone who could play many layers, someone with guts ... I think it would be more than one actress... but I'll start with one ;) no clue who.

I am not sure if she looks at all like you but I would go for Hilary Swank...she certainly has the chops
 
movie

I think you would be perfect for the lead role. No one else could copy the "origional"!! You have always been a "one of one". Best to you.

Best of luck on this Robin. I know your story and know it would make a great inspirational movie and be great for pool in general.
 
Instead of mentioning a screenwriter friend's name on this forum, I'm going to send him a link to this, see if he's interested. Last I heard he was under contact to a studio, so may not be able to. Also, he kind of specializes in crime stories.
