Dead Living Optioned For a Screenplay

Dead LivingDead Living has been optioned for a screenplay. I’ve seen some reviews mention that Dead Living would make for a pretty good movie, a very nice compliment. I tried to keep Dead Living close to the rules we’ve all become familiar with (except for, of course, my own little twist on the main character). The zombies are relatively slow, are dangerous in groups, there is no explanation for how they came to be, etc. When you read a book or watch a movie, some scenes stay with you more than others. The same thing goes for writing. Scenes like Aaron first saving Samantha in Baltimore, the escape back to the school, the hospital raid, the slave camp assault, I can see very clearly in my head, and I think would make great movie scenes. Any scene with Aaron walking with zombies would be cool. I know they’re not action-packed, but I think watching Aaron and Samantha grow closer in a dead world would be neat to see.

What do you guys think? Would Dead Living be cool to see on a screen? What scenes would work? What would you change?
