Thank you to Reese Witherspoon’s production company Hello Sunshine for this wonderful outtake from the upcoming Crawdads movie. I’m so excited to see Kya come to life on the silver screen!
The worldwide phenomenon and best-selling book is coming to the big screen. Watch the trailer for Where The Crawdads Sing, featuring an original song from Taylor Swift. Exclusively in movie theaters July.
Where the Crawdads Sing has sold FOUR MILLION COPIES in the US (hardback, e-book, and audio).
Earlier this year, we were celebrating one million sold and now we are already up to four million!! It's a Great Day for Crawdads!!!! Thank you!
While I was in LA, planning the movie adaptation for Where the Crawdads Sing, Reese made these two short videos. She held up her phone as we were walking out of the restaurant onto the terrace and she and I said a few words.
Reese has done so much for women writers! I am grateful to her and all of you.

“It’s almost in Canada, with a view of Montana. That’s how remote this northern corner of Idaho really is, worlds away from almost everything, except nature. For writer Delia Owens, it’s heaven. Wildlife is her church, vast isolation her muse.
Does she get lonely out here? “I do. I get so lonely sometimes I feel like I can’t breathe.”
”But you like a part of that though, right?” asked correspondent Lee Cowan.
”I do, I do. And I decided to write a book about it.”
That book, “Where the Crawdads Sing,” has become a phenomenon. At a recent book fair in Savannah, Georgia, she had readers lined up around the block just to meet her.”
Did you catch the CBS Sunday Morning show segment on Where the Crawdads Sing’? Lee Cowan is the correspondent and we explored some of Kya’s marsh during the filming. If you missed it, you can watch it on the CBS News website.
