Turning my book into a Movie
Donation protected
I am a CEO / self-published Author at Queen C’s Publishing. My name is Chyna Sallier, I have recently wrote two books titled “Hood Girlz 1 & 2” which is a short story series, that has been turned into a script and is in pre-production.
We are raising a portion of the budget. We are in the process of getting characters together to play the roles in "Hood Girlz 1 & 2" We are doing this by having casting calls / Auditions so that we can start shooting the movie trailer, to get are project moving and off the ground.
In the process, our company is trying to raise funds for wardrobe, stage props, camera crew, and marketing & promoting.
We feel that we will be able to pull this project off, and that it will a big success. We also feel that, a lot of people young and old will be able to relate to it. With the right funding and support, we can do it.

She went through abuse, heartache, betrayal, and pain; living the rough life that she lived, thought her strength and to keep pushing no matter what fell in her path.

Will Desti’ne, Angie, and Black work out their differences, or will matters get worst? After going through life Struggles, Hurt, Heartbreak, and Betrayal, Desti’ne came to realize that, she is Herself-Keeper and no one is to be trusted.
As the story unfolds:
Desti’ne pulls up to the Carmelitos in Long Beach where Nevaeh lived. It was a warm beautiful day out, so, she was rolling with her T-Tops off. She pulled in an empty parking space next to Nevaeh’s in her black Camaro Z28 that sat on 20” Anteras. When she stepped out, the bitches were standing around looking; all eyes were on her. Shit, if she would have known that they would have been staring like that, she would have pulled up bumpin’, All Eyez On Me by Tupac. The bitches had some crazy looks on their faces; looking her up and down. They were either hating or looking at how fly she was, with all her ass. Her ass was looking right and plumper than ever. She had dipped her stash that she had taken from Black’s scandalous ass, and went and had her some butt injections done. After she had Malik, her ass disappeared; she couldn’t deal with that so, she moseyed her way on down to a plastic surgeon over in Hawthorne and got her butt done. Therefore, she was not mad that they were looking; shit, if she were them, she would have been looking too. She had her middle finger in the air yelling fuck’em. She had sewed in a 20” Malaysian straight weave in her hair, with a part down the middle, she had on some cute diamond sandals that she had ordered from Bakers; fresh pedicure—toes polished all white, Robert Cavali jeans on, and a red tank top with the back cut up.
She looked back at them, threw her Coach bag over her shoulder, and walked straight in Nevaeh house. “Bitches,” She said to herself. For some reason, she and females just did not click.
