I agree. There’s nothing worse than a much-loved book series being ruined by poor casting and neglect to follow the story line once it’s transferred to the tv screen. Of course the characters cannot be perfect (I have yet to see live yet accurate rendition of the Jamie in my head), but we can hope for as close as possible!

What a great choice you made in having Ron Moore pitch your beloved work to Starz. I guess this will free you up for a bit of time for your writing. Congratulations! I am looking forward to see how things shape up with the directors and casting. Again, best wishes.

So interesting to read all of the comments regarding a ‘series’ – since I have my own ‘pictures’ of the Fraser family in my head it may be difficult for me to transcend to ‘movie images’ – I must confess I have read the Outlander series (all volumes) at least 3 times. Something about your writing, Ms Gabaldon, captures my imagination and I keep learning new information each time I read. I am a retired community college psychology teacher who has wanted to write a novel all my life – maybe if I put down your books long enough to write my own I may yet accomplish that task.

Don, you are not alone! I have read all seven of Diana”s books from cover to cover four times and I still find things that I missed in previous readings. Not to mention all of the Lord John series! The Scottish Prisoner was a real pleaser since it tied the Sir John series to Jami in a direct way. I await the Fall of 2013 with great anticipation. I hope that Starz does Outlander credit. The potential is there based on a truly great novel!!
P.S. I will soon begin my fifth reading beginning with Outlander, I had been waiting for the announcement of “Written in My Own Hearts Blood”. I am a fast reader so will finish long before the publish date but will be prepared to be up to date with the history to that point.

I wish Joss Whedon could be involved. His sense of humour, poignancy and timing would be so perfect for the characters. Plus he’s such a great advocate of strong female leads. I really REALLY hope they don’t detract from Claire, Brianna, et al, by focusing too much on the guys’ perspective. Les sigh.

And Claire’s hair!!! If Claire’s hair is not at least partially its own character, I’ll be sorely disappointed. Haha!

I am very glad to know that there will finally be a movie–disappointed it will be on Tv not the big screen, but that’s alright….I really can’t wait.

Pn another note! Since this next book about Jamie and Claire has already not made other dates; ALL I wanted for Christmas and last Christmas was for the new book to come out in the fall as promised! I am “sorely” disappointed. Will try to stick around until next fall so please try to finish it. Some of your fans
are not getting younger,

Loved the last Lord John book!

I’m sure it was an unique experience & I’m glad that you got to experience it. That’s ok about the picture. Thank you for trying. Thank you, Kathleen.
