I am a mother of four, grandmother of five, one dog, three cats and throw in a few fish. When I am not writing I am... spending time with my family; figure skating; riding my bike (the peddling kind); being a "crazy camera lady" taking pictures of my beloved Gettysburg Battlefields; struggling with my alphabet issues of TBI, OCD, PTSD and ADD! Though very often frustrated by my disabilities, I strive everyday to better myself and the world around me.
Let me be perfectly clear. Here in our Summer Ray world, we stand with Israel. I know many in Hollywood are demanding a ceasefire. I also know many in this industry are also remaining silent. As the author of the book series; the screenplay writer; one of the producers; and one of the film owners … More THE RIGHT SIDE OF JUSTICE!

Wow! It has been six weeks since my last blog. I have been dealing with some health issues, moving and working on some crafts for an upcoming event. Also the books covers, manuscripts and writing periodically the new memoirs. The first book cover will be released on Friday the 29th. It’s very exciting as it … More LIFE-LINE!
Sometimes for whatever reason, we are forced to slow down and just go back to the basics. Being diagnosed with Post Covid Syndrome, it took a very bad toll me on both physically and mentally. There are days when I am just worn out from tying my laces. But I keep pressing through. It was … More FIGURE SKATING 8/16/2023
While listening to an excellent class on, “Effective Marketing Strategies for Indie Films,” (to me it’s about learning excellence in the film industry) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dtTjULI9S-4 by our Fiscal Sponsor, Carole Dean of From the Heart Productions http://www.fromtheheartproductions.com , the guest speaker started to talk about faith-based films and marketing strategies. I was led to look up … More GO AFTER THE LOST!
WASHINGTON MEMORIAL CHAPEL There is no way that I can adequately describe the beauty of this chapel, nor of its architecture. It is simply exquisite and the memorials to George Washington and the Continental Army, literally makes you feel like you have stepped back to the Revolutionary War. Why is this so important? It is … More A WHOLE STORY!
Normally, my political blogs are on my home website. https://julianalove.com/julianas-blogs/. But because Summer Ray is also politically motivated, I felt the need to write about a few things of said nature here. America was founded on God’s word. The government was established by our Founding Fathers where God’s word was at the core of politics. … More IT IS TIME!!!
This is my 398th blog. I plan to keep on blogging and writing about our Summer Ray journey from start to finish. I hope I am encouraging others in their own journey’s as well. God rarely takes the straightest path to getting us from one place to the next. I haven’t always understood it. But … More NEEDED TIME TO GROW!
For what ever reason, I was led to read an article about Hollywood. I was actually shocked to read how many stars are atheists. Oh! That is why Hollywood is so spiritually dark. Duhh! But was it not God who gave them their talents to begin with? And yet, He doesn’t even get a, “Thank … More ONLY LIGHT CAN DO THAT!
So, I spent the last month editing the book series. https://thememoirsofsummerray.com/the-summer-ray-book-series/. But it was important for me to take notes, so that I can connect the dots in the 8th and final book, The Passages of Time. Right now, it is only 112 pages. But there is so much that needs to be linked together. … More A NEW ONE IS BEGINNING!
