E.L. Westbury’s Drowning in Paper Flowers Is Being Adapted Into A TV Series!

Author E.L. Westbury’s breakout psychological thriller, Drowning in Paper Flowers, is transitioning from a self-published success to a major television adaptation. The story follows Ruby Powell, a woman whose seemingly perfect life as a Dallas socialite masks a dark reality of marital betrayal, family trauma, and prescription drug dependency. This project has secured a high-profile creative team, including Marissa Jo Cerar as showrunner and Jenna Bush Hager as a producer. Following the book's massive viral popularity, it also earned a seven-figure publishing deal and a global relaunch with new content. The narrative is highly regarded for its unreliable narrator and the sharp tension between public appearances and private suffering. Although the series is currently in development, the source material is already available to readers through Atria Books.
