A New Doc Holliday In The Works?

January 16, 2019
   Went home for lunch and attacked a character from the current project I'm working on. 

Daily Whip Out: "Chemehuevi Moon."

   I saw a posting this morning that got me all excited: "Jeremy Renner is taking aim at legendary gunfighter John Henry 'Doc' Holliday. PalmStar Media has optioned the rights to two Mary Doria Russell novels, Doc and Epitaph: A Novel of the O.K. Corral, that are being developed as a Renner starring vehicle."

   So I immediately contacted Mary Doria Russell who informed me that announcement is two years old and that the current option for her books with PalmStar Media runs out in April and she would put the odds of them making the Doc movie with Renner at "200/1."

   Rained again last night. Clouds lifting this morning.

Sugarloaf this morning.
