Some books are better than the film - I learned so much about baseball from Moneyball (the book) but the film just dealt with the personalities and dramas. On the other hand, I thought The Lord of the Rings films were superior to the books because Jackson cut out of bunch of extraneous materials, such as Tom Bombadil and the bad Elvish songs.
Have a wonderful New Year creatively and in all other ways!

I agree with you about The Lord of the Rings films. Those books, though brilliant and iconic, go on and on.
Congrats on a successful book tour, as I prepare to enter that arena with trepidation and joy!
Good luck, Val! It's a TRIP!
