Cast your net to win a copy of ONE SALT SEA!

It's time for ARC giveaway #3...the casting call! Here's how this is going to work:

1. Leave a comment on this post with YOUR DREAM CAST for ANY of my projects. Want to cast the Toby books? How about Feed? Or Sparrow Hill Road? Have the perfect actress in mind for Velveteen? The sky's the limit!

1b. Be sure your comment starts its own thread. Only casting choices left on the original post (not as a comment on someone else's comment) will count as entries. You can suggest cast members for someone else's dream team, but they won't be entries.

2. One entry per project per person (so you can cast the Toby books and the InCryptid books in different comments, but not enter twice with different Toby casts).

3. Explain your cast in the comment. Why are they perfect? Why should we agree with you?

And then...GAME ON! I will choose a winner via random number generator on Friday, at 5PM PST. I reserve the right to supply a bonus prize or prizes for the person whose cast amuses me most, or strikes me as the best supported. (Yes, you can use my casting choices, but you do need to explain why you agree with them.)

Go Hollywood or go home!

While many of the characters in The Newsflesh Trilogy brought to mind historic celebrities or folks I know, i'm gonna try to stick to actual, real casting possibilities. As a result it may skew a little young...just in case, ya know, it might take a few years to get everything ready to go!


Georgia: Malese Jow http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1679802/

Shawn: Steven R McQueen http://wwwcc.imdb.com/name/nm1997596/

(they have a really fascinating on-screen chemistry together, both have considerable acting chops tho i haven't seen enough of him doing comedy to be sure about carrying Deadline. However, i have faith in the insanely pretty. I also like that you could *almost* believe they are related, but then jolt back into the reality that they are very clearly of different parentage)

Becks: Sarah Carter http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0141931/ (got the southern belle pretty along with a steel backbone)

I kinda love the idea of Kyle Chandler and Bonnie Briton from FNL as Senator and Emily Ryman, but i think Nathan Fillion is screaming for the role of Senator Ryman, and of course would pull it off admirable.

Rick: Ben Rappaport http://www.imdb.com/name/nm2999419/

I know, it's not complete. I have perfect mental images of Mahir, Magdalena, Buffy, and the Masons...but am not finding the right actors. Yet.

Woke up with a minor breakthrough - Greg Itzin as Senator Tate. For a nice guy he plays evil reeeeaaaallly well. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0411857/
