Lots of News From Rick Hautala
Hautala's latest novel written as A.J. Matthews, FOLLOW, is completed and delivered. The book is due to be released in October 2005. He has also started work on his fourth A.J. Matthews book tentatively titled CROSSROADS.
Rick has delivered his latest short story collection, OCCASIONAL DEMONS, to CD Publications. All artwork for this book comes from the masterful hand of Glenn Chadbourne. CD Publications hopes to have the collection released for this summer.
UNTCIGAHUNK: THE COMPLEE LITTLE BROTHERS (most likely title) will be released in a special limited edition from Delerium Press in December 2005. Along with the original novel, this book will include five short stories and three myths about the creatures featured in this book.
Hautala also reports that a major studio has shown interest in filming FOLLOW. "At this point, the negotiations are in the works," says Hautala. "All I can say is that they're very interested, and if the deal goes through, I’ll announce it right away. Of course, I would be thrilled to have a film made of one of my books, and I honestly think FOLLOW might be the one that will work." Also, LAND OF NOD, a film adaptation of the Mark Clemens book of the same name, is making the rounds in Hollywood. Hautala collaborated with Bill Relling on this script.
In other collaboration news, Hautala has signed with Dark Horse to co-write an original CREATURE FROM THE BLACK LAGOON novel with with Christopher Golden. That book should be released sometime in 2006.
