> We are soliciting manuscripts and proposals for an edited collection
> tentatively entitled Fantasy Fiction into Film. The intellectual
> lynchpin of this volume is the transition from text to the screen. The
> essays should focus on the transformation of novel/short story/etc.
> into film, the deletions, additions, and revisions from written to
> cinematic narrative. We encourage essays on Peter Jackson's Lord of
> the Rings series, as well as The Chronicles of Narnia and Harry
> Potter. The list of applicable movies, however, could also include
> Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, The Polar Express, The Wizard of
> Oz, Mary Poppins, The Witches, Ella Enchanted, Finding Neverland,
> Nanny McPhee etc.
>
> We invite proposals, but we will be unable to make a final decision
> until we have seen a complete draft. Submissions should be documented
> in MLA style and should be formatted in Word. Please do not use an
> auto-numbering system for the endnotes in the final copy. The essays
> should not exceed twenty pages. Those submissions that are accepted
> must be submitted on diskette and must be accompanied by a permission
> letter the details of which will be stipulated at the time of
> acceptance. Deadline for submission of completed drafts is May 15 2006.
