Dear Gordon Korman,

I am the same boy who wrote to you about the masterminds trilogy earlier today. While exploring some other posts, I came to the assumption that other fans and readers have mentioned making a movie of one of their favorite books written by you. Your answer was similar but the main response you gave revolved around the problem of that you can\’t make a movie because only a film company can do that. You did say that others can make their own movie as long as it won\’t be sold and used for fun purposes only. I fear that I may get the same or similar answer when you respond to my question above. I truly understand that you are an author and not a filmmaker which means it would be almost impossible to make a movie yourself. Please don\’t turn down this idea as I have a solution to this problem. 

This link below helps with a few tips on how authors try and get their books on the big screen:

This process is called the books adaptation process which is where the book can hopefully be made into a movie or show. It is a longer process with a few steps involved, but in the end I hope it will be worth it. You may also do some research yourself and hopefully come across some information that will help if you\’re interested in this proposal. I really hope you take this into consideration because I believe it could be a big hit!! I hope I am not being too pushy with this idea which would be annoying for you to take the time to read this and reply. Otherwise I thank you once more for listening to my suggestion whether the idea will be possible or not.

Sincerely, Once Again,

Owen
