Coming into our 10 year anniversary, I am seeing more clear what my role in all of this will be, once the first film is completed. I can say with all honesty, I will then just be the writer of the story. It could be another 2-3 years before the first film is produced and … More LABOR OF LOVE!
Wow! In keeping up with consistency, I am having to redo all the Summer Ray book covers. This is so the 6th and 7th volume match the rest. It is an unexpected task. But, it has to be done. When things are consistent and in order, things have a certain flow about them. There is … More GREAT STRIDES!
Happy Thanksgiving from all of us at Love Studios. I am so excited about what 2019 will bring. 2018 has been a hard year of ice skating injuries for me that started with a broken wrist. I am now nursing a hurt knee, but still going strong. For the film, we were able to persevere … More KEEP GOING!
I have always said that this project is like a puzzle. For a very long time it seemed like there were puzzle pieces everywhere and there was nothing but chaos. There were also times when pieces were put in the wrong place, or at the wrong time and it caused lots of frustration. But, over … More ONWARD…TO DISTRIBUTION!
This picture is of a Gettysburg sunrise over Big Round Top. It is not altered or filtered in any way. I was at the right place at the right time. But, the point is, I had to be there. This view did not come to me while sitting on my couch watching reruns. I had … More REALLY NOT ALONE AT ALL!
I have read this book several times and I am studying it again. As we get closer and closer to finishing our pitch trailer, I have to make sure my pitch is spot on. But, it isn’t just in what I am saying. It is also how I am presenting my project. But more importantly, … More A PRIVILEGE DENIED TO MANY!
Sometimes, all I need to relax and to refocus is a Gettysburg sunrise. I adore this battlefield and to see the beauty of it in the morning, is awe inspiring. I have been feeling “stuck” in life lately. It has been very frustrating. So, this blog is not just about the film but also about … More LOOK FOR THE GOOD
While working on a new fundraising campaign, I had to add pictures. The one above is from about 7 years ago. I can hardly believe it is almost 10 years of working on this project. But, when I go through the pictures, I see one word – DEDICATION! So many amazing and dedicated people. Sure, … More DEDICATION
It was a day much like this when I first climbed up Big Round Top in February 2009. It was snowy, icey, cold, wet, and damp all at the same time. It was surreal. It was like I was in a dreamlike state. I knew I shouldn’t climb this hill in these weather conditions…but … More EXCEPTIONAL BRILLIANCE
I started reading the 6th volume as I am getting ready to release it soon. The story of Summer Ray started ten years ago and it is still not finished. There is a great deal of history as well as current events and as we know, some of those events are simply a huge mark … More VOLUME 6
