Following the news that her novel Unearthly may become a TV series on The CW, author Cynthia Hand has written about her love for the network on her blog.
Here’s part of what she had to say:
“I have been an avid CW watcher for a long time, my fave show for years and years being The Gilmore Girls. There’s nothing like the rapid-fire dialogue from that show. <3 In fact, Unearthly was influenced quite a lot by Rory and Lorelei–I wanted the relationship between Clara and Maggie to be fun and friend-like and snappy like this (and there is a reference to the GG in the book, can you find it?). So I am soooooo pleased that my little book is being developed into a show for this network.”
Hand stresses that this is just development at this time; there is no guarantee we’ll see Unearthly on television screens. (Raven last year was a similar situation – The CW developed it but it never even got to shooting a pilot). You can read Hand’s full blog post here, and if you’re curious to read the first book in the series, you can find it at Amazon.com.
