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.
I have been thinking about funding and what it will mean when we finally have it. Wow! What a great time that will be and not just for me. I will be able to pay people who have worked on this project so far for free and I will be able to hire my cast … More SOMEDAY IS HERE!
Have you ever had so much on your plate that you just cannot even think straight? It’s where I am right now. I have so much work to do and it isn’t that I don’t have the time to do it, I don’t have a clear mind. I don’t know where to begin and what … More MOMENT IN TIME
I knew at a very early age that I was born to be a writer. The English language fascinated me. I was a poet in elementary school to the point other students would get mad at me and the teacher would be stunned. I understood all kinds of different types of writing. I knew how … More THE OTHER 9,999 MILES!
I have come a long way since this whole book and film series began (over nine years ago). I look back and I have completed an astonishing amount of work. Lately, I have been exhausted. It’s not just a physical exhaustion, but one of mental fatigue. There are things I know that should be done, … More CHANGING OF THE GUARDS
The Bible states, “As a man thinks in his heart, so he is.” Ever since I was old enough to hold a pencil or pen, I became an author. I was always writing on everything I could get my hands on, including my mattresses. My parents would freak out when they would find it was … More BREAK THE BARRIERS
I have been working hard on my “pitch.” Due to my having Traumatic Brain Injury, at times my speech is affected. Which for someone having to give an important pitch, this can be extremely bothersome. I almost passed this responsibility to someone else. Then God met me where I was at. In reading the book … More HE IS WITH ME!
It is Good Friday – March 30, 2018! There are so many amazing “Christian” films being made. I can hardly wait until the release of ours, Summer Ray The Redemption Part I. But, our film is not pitched as a “Christian” film. The story of Summer Ray and its universal element is redemption. Yet, this … More MY SECRETS
When I first started this journey with Summer Ray, God didn’t tell me all of the good and bad details. If He had, perhaps I would have faltered in my faith and gave the whole thing up. When the Israelites left slavery, He didn’t tell them they would end up at the Red Sea with … More THE RED SEA
Can I just take a few minutes to breathe and to thank the so many people who have helped so far with this project! Wow! We have come a long way. In speaking with a true professional film trailer editor, (yes it’s a mouthful), we have been advised to create an illustrated trailer with voice … More STORYBOARD VIDEO ACT I
I have been working on the storyboard video and without fail, each time I get to certain parts, I cry. Then I began to question, “Is this story really good enough to be a success?” Although the book has had great reviews, scripts are so much more complicated than novels. With a novel, I do … More ANYTHING BUT SHALLOW!
