Hi guys
I wonder i you can help.
I’ve found a recently published book that I believe has great potential to be adapted as a thriller for TV series.
The author, a friend of mine, is a first time writer, but an international authority in the field of international politics and security.
Speaking to the author I explained I was interested in adapting their book, got some industry contacts and an good idea to package the material. In the end I got the go ahead and was referred to their literary agent.
However talking to the agent, I found they have a TV & film person on board who deals with production companies. Hence, the agent was interested in using my connections, me pitching to my contacts and their in-house person working out the Option agreement afterwards with my contacts directly.
This is my first project this yet, and after this conversation I'm not 100% confident their approach is quite right, what my role would be or how to proceed to make it all happen.
Any ideas or suggestions you’d like to share to move this project forward will be much appreciated.
Thanks
A.
Hi Dan
Thanks for your post. Absolutely! That should be my next step with the agent. Thanks you. Asier

Dan Guardino, good point. The way Asier Jon Odriozola describes it, the relationship with the agent went south from the get-go.
