January 30, 2010     /     7 Comments

So we got a great looking cast so far for the BC movie.  Here is the list so far:

(Serafine)

(Marian)

(Larkin)

And finally the votes show that Macon would be played by……..

DANIEL DAY LEWIS.  He is actually one of my favorite actors.  Glad you guys voted for him!

So now on to Amma, who would you cast?  This was a really hard casting for us.  But with much difficulty we bring you our top 5 picks.

 

 

Caster Girl 11

I have always been teased because I have always liked
reading. I just don’t think that is fair. I was always the smartest
in class. But, I never liked hanging out with
anyone some would call me a loner but, I don’t like titles. I love
reading and i’m not afraid to show it. I am ready to
stand out instead of trying to fit in and Lena inspired me to do that.

Since we’re like this | | close to being done and getting home I’m posting  a quick but random picture post. Can you tell we’re tired and I’m not even Kami or Margie who’ve been working so hard and have been meeting tons and tons of great readers! :D

The coolest bookstore ever! We failed to document the event properly so here’s some after shots. lol

Can we just say, we ADORE Emily, the teen bookseller at Lemuria??

Yes, that is in fact Eudora Welty’s portrait. Margie’s icon right there next to us on the wall.

In the Southern Fiction section of Lemuria. SOUTHERN Fiction. Yes, you read right!

Margie in front of EUDORA WELTY’s home. Words can’t even describe this experience, especially for Margie. It was truly touching.

Today was quite a day! :D

Since we are at the end of our tour we’ll do a few short, mostly picture posts of the girls’ adventure.

Kami and Margie got interviewed by the lovely M at Justine Magazine. If you are not familiar with Justine you better, ASAP! It is a great teen magazine and maybe the only one that features and talks about books.Look out for the interview on their website soon.

The girls getting interviewed by a book talk show. How cool?!

The girls at the reading and signing at Davis Kidd Booksellers.

The amazing booksellers at Davis Kidd! So incredibly hard-working!

Some cool stuff

The girls yesterday had lots of fun cool stuff they did and here’s a few pictures from their glamorous day. OK, I’m kidding, but TV is still cool.

Here’s some cool stuff:

Kami and Margie were on a local radio show and if you go on their blog you can hear their interview with Drake and Zeke.  They not only loved the book and had great words to say about it but we met many people at the signings that had come because they put in the good word.

They were also on Live at 9 in Memphis! They did such a great job and we wish we had a clip to show you but you’ll have to wait for the crazy outtakes from our upcoming “A Day in the Life of..” vlog. Tres fun, I promise!

See you tomorrow with a bigger more picture filled post of their signing from the previous days.
