#WritersCoffeeClub Dec 13: Which novel to TV or movie adaptation was the most disappointing and why?

Tying into my Dec 12 reply mentioning #RobertBParker as my favorite author, I was most disappointed in the 2020 #Netflix movie #Spenser Confidential. Very loosely based on #AceAtkins' continuation novel Wonderland, the movie changed Spenser into an ex-con to suit producer-star #MarkWahlberg. Terrible. Atkins' novels did no such thing.

#WritersCoffeeClub Apr 1: What's your favorite easter egg in your own work and/or another work of fiction?

I don't place much value on easter eggs relative to command of language, compelling characters, and similar concrete measures of writing, but in general I like brief character mentions or cameos like when #RobertCrais's #ElvisCole waves to his neighbor #MichaelConnelly's #HarryBosch or when #AceAtkins had #Spenser in Los Angeles on a case see Crais's #JoePike jogging.

I review Ace Atkins' upcoming suspense thriller DON'T LET THE DEVIL RIDE: https://chatterrific.blogspot.com/2024/02/dont-let-devil-ride-by-ace-atkins.html
