Debbie Macomber’s latest newsletter was in my inbox yesterday. She shared this bit of info:
In August you’ll be able to see a movie on Hallmark Channel based on my Cedar Cove series. After the movie premieres, the network will make a decision about green-lighting the series. (You can’t imagine how hard it’s been to keep this secret until the contract was signed!) More news when I have it!
I’m so excited because I’ve always thought this series would be a great one for Hallmark or Lifetime.
Oh, I’m excited to hear that too. I’ve loved the Cedar Cove series and I agree that it would translate well to made-for-TV movies. Thanks for sharing this, Mary!

I’m so excited about this. My sisters both just finished reading this series and they were also excited when I told them about the movie. Hopefully the first one will be really good and they will continue the series.
