Movie Deal for Boston Public Library 'Writer in Residence'

Natalie C. Anderson has "parlayed an improbable stint in the Boston Public Library's Writer-in-Residence program into a movie deal," the Boston Globe reported, noting that in 2015, "despite having never published anything, or even taken a college writing course, Anderson was accepted into the BPL's writer-in-residence program and what she wrote has now been optioned by Universal Pictures and actress Kerry Washington." Her YA novel, City of Saints & Thieves, was published by Putnam in January.
