Different Drummers
AUTHORS
Don Caron and Lyle Hatcher formed a partnership in 2005 with the creation of the film-development company, Different Drummers, LLC.
They first wrote "Different Drummers" as
a screenplay, completed it in 2006, and wrote the novel while searching for the right investors to make the screenplay into a feature film. That search is still ongoing.
