When PZ reviewed my latest book as if it was a sci-fi novel, I thought the result was hilarious.
I certainly didn't think anyone would take him literally.
But now across my cluttered desk comes this:
Australia's Great Western Entertainment (GWE) has expanded backing for its kids and family sci-fi series Stormworld, with production, investment and broadcast partners from Canada and Australia, and now Singapore also involved.
The live-action 26x30' series follows two teenage friends, Jason and Lee, who are transported to a parallel universe.
It goes into production in January 2008, for delivery in early 2009, and will be filmed in Perth, Singapore, Vancouver and the remote Kimberley coast in North-west Australia.
Inquiring minds want to know: How the hell are storms involved?
All I can say is, there's obviously something special about your books...
Aside from what might be hundreds of "Earth after Environmental collapse" stories (really popular during the 70s) in sci-fi there's some close to your title sci-fi stories:
"The Storm Planet," by Cordwainer Smith.
"Heavy Weather," by Bruce Sterling. This one could have been called "Storm World."
Hmm..Storm World coming to Singapore? I'd better tell the neighbours to batter down the hatches!
