To my favorite author, whom I will not drive bat guano crazy with a sentence beginning with the word,” When…”. I wish to thank you for the countless hours and years of fascinated emotional rollercoaster entertainment that I never can seem to put away for long. I wish to also thank you for the spoilers that you have kept writing, updating and posting for your saga fans worldwide. It has been a balm to help with the void while we avidly await the final publishing day of book 9. Anyone clearly bothered by having surprises being spoiled. should clearly wait in suspense for the final outcome. Personally, I can only say YAY!
Thank you, also, for the OC2. I am chomping at the bit to purchase it, however as I believe I may find it under the Christmas tree…Should I be wrong, however, believe it when I say that I will be in line on Boxing Day.
I do want to ask if there was going to be a Season 1 Volume 3? Or a season 2 Volume 1? If there is. will those shows air in Canada a month or two behind US programming?
Sincerely, Beverley,
A devoted,hopeful fan who religiously checks Showcase for new shows to begin

Dear Collette–

Season Two will air sometime in 2016–probably in the spring, but there’s no official air date set yet. (They’re still _filming_ Season Two.)

Best,

–Diana

Thank you Diana for taking the time to explain in detail what screen writing is all about! I have an interest in film making and am still amazed at the internet, how I can connect with your blog and read your thoughts on different subjects. I’m not sure I would have the patience you exhibited in this post but I’m glad you did. The Outlander series is exceptional in every way and a breath of fresh air for creative film making.

It was nice to read how books go on scripts. It no easy. When I saw first Outlander Episode in TV. In Finland TV. I do no like it, but now just waiting when Outlander continue in Finnish TV next year. I just read Dragonfly in Amber. In the book will be a lot of good and bad things. Happiness, passion, grief, etc. How make a good screenplay. Jamie´s and Claire´s love story. It is for adult. This story is beautiful and realstic. Not any “humpple pumpple”. Leading actors make a story in TV. Sam is very talennted actor leading role and just be himself and do Jamie´s role.

[…] Gabaldon’s writing the script for one of the Season 2 shows, and she posts about the experience here – it’s an interesting read, even if you haven’t been watching. Also, […]

Thank you for explaining the process you are experiencing going from novel to screen. I really have enjoyed the knowing the steps involved with first your steps in publishing your novel and now stepping into the shoes of a screen writer. I appreciate the details and your thought process. I read the first four books years ago- when they were first published and a year ago heard some of my younger coworkers talking about the outlander books. I was excited to join in and talk to them about the books and then they told me of the Starz series ! I really love the adaptation and don’t feel they have left much out that was essential. I guess I don’t need every word verbatim from the books so… I have since re read the first 4 books and the next 4 ! Thank you for writing such detailed characters and story. I hope to keep enjoying your creativity and adventures with your characters. Thank You !
