Adapting By The Dark O' The Moon into a screenplay

3/19/2022

The premise of the By The Dark O’ The Moon originated from a scene in The Ghost Trap, which initially explored the folkloric struggle between fishermen and seals. By The Dark O' The Moon takes that concept even farther, re-imagining seals who fight back.

I'm currently half-way through adapting the novel into a screenplay.

Logline: In this Prohibition-era novel, a selkie (a mythological seal who can become human once she removes her sealskin) attempts to extract her kidnapped child from a rum-runner in Maine before her colony of shape-shifting seals threatens to wipe out the entire island.

Here's my profile on NetworkISA, an industry website for screenwriters, directors, and producers.

Note: The Ghost Trap is currently on back order but that doesn't mean you can't get it. Back order just means it might take two weeks to arrive. Also please consider by buying the book directly from the publisher (which pays the author the royalty) and not from some used book dealer (which doesn't).
