What would you say if a producer said he/she wanted to make movies out of your series? If you tend to say yes which series would you like to see as a movie first and why?
Nalini Singh
I think it would all depend on their vision for the stories. I accept that visual media (film/tv) is different from written media, so they have to adapt stories, but I'd want the heart and soul of the stories to remain in the adaptation. So there'd have to be a lot of trust there.
I think the Psy-Changeling series would make an excellent television series because then we could justice to the overarching storyline. I think the Guild Hunter series would be fantastic as movies just because they're so incredibly visual - imagine seeing all those wings on the big screen!
Alas, I have been told by friends who work in the financial end of the movie industry that wings are ridiculously expensive, so we may have to wait a while until technology advances to the point where they can do it cost-effectively.

Hi Nalini. I love all three series but I have to say I am partial to the Guild Hunter series. They were the first books by you that I read and I am fascinated with them. Due to my personality I like to map things out in my head when I read books. Is there a map of the archangels territories? It was a huge discussion point who's territory Australia falls in when the last book came out. I can't wait for the new books!!

Nalini, I admire you, and I love your work. I am an aspiring writer (or I would like to think I am), and I would like some insight. I have been writing since I was seven years old. However, I rarely shared my stories. I had insecurities about my writing, and I feared the vulnerability that came with it. Do you ever have doubts about your writing? Have you ever felt "exposed" by something you had written? Thank you!
