I've had to keep this under wraps for a while, but my agent, Pauline Perell, has called and I'm free to Tell All: my novel The Adventures of Jinkie Jenkins: Interstellar Sex Reporter will be made into a major motion picture! By Disney studios of all people!
It's the story of a virginal young girl from a deeply inhibited planet who gets a job with the "Interstellar Inquirer" the tabloid sleaze paper of record in Earth's intergalactic empire of the future. Forced onto the sex beat by her depraved edito Grabthar Assurilogan (aka "Grab Ass"), Jinkie picks up an older, experienced slavegirl ("hotmeat") who shows Jinkie the ropes and the chains and the nipple clips as they travel throughout the galaxy, moving from one depraved hellhole to another and writing it up for the "Inquirer" while she secretly searches for the space pirates who stole the planet Alderan.
With the success of Wonder Woman and Captain Marvel, Disney is hot to get into the female superhero market, and although Jinkie is no superhero, she IS in outer space and has all sorts of adventures, which was close enough for Disney. Especially since, with the success of Fifty Shades of Gray, Disney is sure that a strong female heroine who is also heavily into kinky sex will be their ticket to success, and since they don't own Wonder Woman, they were drooling for Jinkie like they were wearing ball gags, according to my agent.
Casting is even now underway but some earlier speculations may not bear out with Meryl Streep, Lindsay Lohan, Wenona, Queen Latifa, Halle Berry, Jennifer Lawrence, Kristen Stewart and many, many others vying for the role of Jinkie Jenkins and Christina Carter, Justine Jolie, Penny Pax, Wenona and Phoenix Marie vying for the role of hotmeat. Vying for the hunky male lead role of John Quill are Chris Helmsworth, Chris Pine, Chris Pratt and Chris Kattan.
I've been informed that Disney has requested a few script changes but they are minor things that shouldn't affect the message, tone and style of the story, I am assured. Jinkie Jenkins will be an interstellar bounty hunter who is also an escaped slavegirl. Hotmeat will be a wisecracking barrista in an intergalactic coffee shop, and John Quill will be a loose cannon of an intergalactic cop who makes his own rules and breaks them, too! And almost all of the movie will take place in the coffee shop, and will be about decoding a mysterious message from an office slave about a popular children's cereal. So, pretty much the same story.
And I just have to let this tidbit out: My novel President Slavegirl is in development in a major motion picture studio as well (can't spill the beans on which one or we get locked in the Magic Castle with Tim Powers!). My agent tells me that when movie execs are told there's a scene where a female President of the United States is put on a rape rack and forced to give a Wall Street tycoon a blowjob while her mocks her as an idiot for not following the Rules of Money, they go wild. It's a lock!
