This is the question posed to Mary, a single mother with a young son, when her patience snaps after a delinquent teenager called Rosie breaks into her property in the middle of the night. She should have called the police and let them deal with the vindictive youth. But instead of calling the police, Mary ties the insolent terror to a dining chair with the goal of finding out why Rosie does the things that she does.
I originally scripted ‘Tables Turned’ as a short drama story, but after speaking with Katherine Shannon it soon became obvious that this story had a message to deliver – and in order to reach the widest audience possible, it should be told in words as well as pictures. It wasn’t long before the twenty-two page screenplay was adapted into a sixty-two page novella – a dramatic works that is now available for the first time in print.
And the short film?
I’ve been in constant contact with Katherine, and I’m pleased to confirm that it is now in pre-production. Katherine has even been able to get the support of the both the fire service, and the police force – as is the power of the message I hope this story will deliver.
The short film adaptation promises to deliver, and the hope is we can start shooting soon. But if you don’t want to wait until it’s released, you can pick up a copy (or download it on Kindle) from Amazon and most reputable bookstores.
Hate paying delivery fees and love good value for money!? Me too, so DO NOT pay for the delivery when snapping up your copy. Just tag a paperback copy of my latest novel, FISH, CHIPS & LUBRICATING JELLY, onto your order so it qualities for free delivery!! You can find my books quickly by selecting the MY BOOKS option at the top of the page.
