Tomorrow Studios is taking a trip down to Green Valley. Yes, *That* Green Valley...

I won’t paraphrase the great news because the Collider article says it better than I ever could. But I’ll give you the short of it: the rights to Penny Reid’s Winston Brothers series, set in the very same universe as my novel, Forrest for the Trees, has been purchased for TV Adaptation. My name is mentioned in the article in reference to the success of the Winston Brother series and how that led to me and other authors writing in this universe via Smartypants, Penny’s publishing outfit:

The Winston Brothers series was so successful that Reid was able to launch Smartypants Romance, a publishing imprint that allows new authors to write books set in the same universe as her books — that of Green Valley, the home of the bearded romantic heroes, as well as other universes, including Knitting in the City and Dear Professor. Other titles include the Green Valley Library series, penned by L.B. Dunbar and Nora Everly, among others, as well as the Donner Bakery books and Green Valley Heroes, including titles by Kilby Blades and Juliette Cross. Reid also continues to publish novels in the Winston Brothers canon, including the Solving for Pie murder mystery series and Good Folk, a series of modern folktales.

I won’t attempt to paraphrase the rest of it. Here’s the beginning of the Collider article for you to check out and a link that will take you to the piece in its entirety:
