Sasha Jackson Mysteries optioned for TV!

Hi Folks,

This has been in the works for a little while but I couldn't say anything until now.  I am absolutely thrilled to announce that the Sasha Jackson Mysteries have been optioned for development as a television series!!!  They have been optioned by Angela Argento of Lock and Load Productions.

I don't have many details yet on production, and it will be a while yet before the cameras start rolling, but it's damn exciting to be at the start of what is sure to be a great ride!

They DO plan to keep its Toronto setting.  They DO plan to have Sasha remain as edgy on screen as in the books.

The plan (as it stands now - may change) is for each book to be a season.  The show is being pitched to cable networks.

I'll be sure to share news as it happens :)

Cheers, Jill

    Congrats!!!! You should use the REAL Sasha Jackson as Sasha Jackson. She's real kick ass and reminds me of your Sasha Jackson. They have many simillarities. I'd be stoked and i bet it would generate you masses of publicity for the uniusualness of creating a character so like a real life actress with the same name without knowing :-)
