Hey all - this is the book trailer for my latest novel COOL SIDE OF THE PILLOW. Would love to see an indie filmmaker take notice of the book to use as source material for film. (We're supposed to dream it, right?) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IUC6AsTKgCI

Hi Greg, Had a chance to look over your preview and it seems like a good basis for a story. But I'm a little confused as to what it's about. It seems like single dad sends son off to school, falls for woman, and then....? Rabbit hole is good but I need more detail on what the rabbit hole is. Drugs? Murder? Insanity? Of course there's self-discovery, but what activity is driving it? Hope it's helpful, apologies if it's not.

L - thanks for your feedback. I appreciate it. You are correct: I don't mention what her rabbit hole entails when he becomes wrapped up in her children's theater company as well as secrets about her past. Novelist/book publishers run that same fine line of telling too much in a book blurb trailer (or not enough) the same as filmmakers do when they show you the entire movie in a trailer. Thanks for taking the time to watch it.
I've read Cool Side Of The Pillow - and honestly, it would make a great film adaptation!
Thanks, Arthur. That's what this site is for, right? Connecting with all those artists!
Thanks, MIchael. Really appreciate it. Book just came out in February...so still fairly new. ;-)

Your trailer is wonderful. Great imagery! You have provided me a high bar to shoot for.
Thanks Roger! Just tried to pick moments out of the story to share with readers (visually). Thanks for watching it.
Great trailer! Have you shared this within the Google+ Indie film producer circles or the Film Festival groups? Great location to share & maybe one of them will get excited. Awesome New Movie for someone wanting to get noticed. Oh, where can I find your novel?
Thanks, Cindy. I haven't seen that group on Google + (I'm so not great at the social media site), but I need to find it. Oh...and here is the link to the novel. http://www.amazon.com/Cool-Side-Pillow-ebook/dp/B00B9JYQ1K/ref=la_B0054U... Thanks again for your feedback!
After seeing the trailer I am really looking forward to reading the book, good luck with it.
