So happy for you! A richly deserved achievement for a writer and friend we all admire, in no small part because you are so kind, thoughtful and accessible, never mind that your books are also absolute favorites.
Be prepared for a small handful of snide disgruntled screenwriters' comments about how easy it will be to adapt a book that's written entirely in dialogue. :)
WOW! You are now big-time. I'm so excited for you and for all of us who look forward to seeing the opera and the movie.And, Tom Hanks is my favorite actor.
Oh George so far the Virgil is with you. Wow I am so happy for you as you continue to make us so proud that we know you even if it is on the internet and TV and everywhere. Gloria Barsamian
Brave to gamble on an unknown actor like this, but I hope it pays off!
Congratulations on everything, George, what a thrilling series of announcements. Will you have a cameo role? Sending best wishes to you, and to Guin.

Amazing! Congratulations!
A hybrid with stop motion animation? I love how that sounds.
OMG. Awesome! Nuf said.
(I had a much longer congratulatory exposition written, then decided to edit, revise, shrink wrap, freakify, and distill)
Bardo deserves a stylized, non-naturalistic approach. This sounds great!
