Welcome!

Welcome to How To Eat Fried Blogs, a blogsite for fans of How To Eat Fried
Worms.

Now, you may be thinking as you read this, "The movie doesn't come out until August 25th, so how can I be a fan of it when I haven't seen it yet?"

That's a great question, and here's the answer: How To Eat Fried Worms is not only a movie, it's a book. The book was written in 1973, by Thomas Rockwell, and it has many many fans, and perhaps you're one of them.

The blogsite you're looking at is dedicated to How To Eat Fried Worms, the book AND the movie. The movie, after all, would not exist if Mr Rockwell hadn't written the book. And the movie owes its spirit to the book. Its screenplay was written with respect for the book's humor, themes, characters, and of course its wonderful grossness.

I should know, because I wrote the screenplay. I also directed the movie. I think that's why I get to write the first blog.

But I'm not the only person who'll be blogging here. You will hear from many people who worked on the movie, including the members of the cast.

And you're invited to write to us. You may ask us any questions you like, or offer comments, about the movie, about the book, or about anything at all.

That's all I have to say for now. It so happens I need a haircut, so I'm going to the barber. I have to hurry or I'll be late!

Goodbye for now.
