Just before the redesign of the news section here on Terry's web site, we posted a link to A Dribble of Ink's interview with Eldon Thompson that took a look at his involvement in the upcoming Shannara movie currently optioned by Warner Bros.

Eldon describes the initial process he went through to produce a screenplay based on Terry's second novel, The Elfstones of Shannara, which eventually went on to be purchased by Warner Bros. He also goes into detail about his experience with the movie industry, why he chose The Elfstones of Shannara instead of The Sword of Shannara and how he balances his time between screenwriting and his own career as a novelist.

He has a lot of great things to say, so be sure to check it out! If you missed the first metion of the interview, this is the perfect time to get up to date on the Shannara movie project!
