Professional Writing

Awards and Recognition
Adam Davies, professional Writing, Savannah, Mine All Mine bookThe film rights to "Mine All Mine," the new novel by professional writing professor Adam Davies, have been sold to Touchy Feely Pictures, and Davies is under contract to write the screenplay. Vanity Fair said of the book, "Inspired by the [real-world] looting of artifacts from museums in the war-torn Middle-East, Davies addresses the politics of art and ownership while hanging on to his trademark eccentricity and sharp-edged comedy." Other reviewers call the novel "a rollicking, rocking good read" (David Benioff), "laugh-out-loud funny" (People), "unabashedly fun" (Entertainment Weekly), "raving mad…manic, frantic, deranged and insane" (USA Today) and "a comic thriller composed with literary refinement" (Troy Patterson, National Public Radio).
