The author will write the script for the TV pilot and serve as an executive producer on the project, along with Liza Chasin from 3dot Productions and Robyn Meisinger from Anonymous Content.
If picked up as a full series, the project would be the fourth book by Bushnell to be adapted for TV, following Sex and the City, Lipstick Jungle and SATC prequel The Carrie Diaries.
The series is not being planned as a direct sequel to hit show Sex and the City, which ran on HBO from 1998-2006 and spawned two feature films.
Is There Still Sex in the City is out on August 6 from Grove Press.
