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!
There are days when I wonder if I should continue. Then, I start to get into the story and I wonder how I could ever quit. It’s like my ice skating. The more advanced I get, the harder the practice is. Which is an obvious statement. But, as the skills get harder, so are the … More A STORY TO TELL!
I was actually pleasantly surprised by last night’s Oscars (May 04, 2018). The women’s gowns were more conservative; there wasn’t a night full of Trump bashing and I think it was great to see the diversity in all the films. Which is why we watch the Oscars right?

What I love about blogging this film journey, is the fact that I will be able to go back and read what we went through to complete the film.

I am extremely fond of George Washington! He was a brilliant and dedicated officer. I have visited the place where he crossed the Delaware River in the ice and snow. With my warm clothes, boots and temps above freezing, it was hard to imagine all they suffered. But, they chose to not take the paths … More THE PATH OF LEAST RESISTANCE!
Winter is a beautiful time of year, but only for about 30 seconds! Yet, I would not want to live in a place without it. After coming off a two month broken wrist, I am just finding my way back to my life. This includes the film, my skating and my day to day living. … More I AM BACK!!!
I have been going over all that we have accomplished so far. Wow! It’s a lot. One cannot get discouraged about what hasn’t happened yet, when so much up to date has been done. I had a great deal to learn about the film industry and I am still learning. But, the point is, I … More OUR BRAND IS LOVE!
Today is February 09, 2018… exactly 9 years ago today, I started the Summer Ray Series when I climbed Big Round Top in Gettysburg, PA. The weather conditions were much like you see here. I will admit, it wasn’t the safest thing for me to do. But it was something I HAD to do. I … More STAY THE COURSE!
