October 2024 -"Introductions"
Dear Friends and Family,
Hello and welcome to the launch of my updated newsletter format!
Children’s Picture Book Series:
It has a fresh design because I’m excited to announce that I am collaborating with acclaimed children’s media and entertainment veteran, Monica Violet Joy, known for creating, developing, writing and producing mega-hits such as CoComelon, Spongebob, Blues Clues, and Go Dog Go! to create a series of children’s picture books, focused on instilling positive social skills and confidence.
Therefore, introductions are in order…
Meet Mia….
The star of the first book, titled “I Don’t Think So!” which will be available for pre-order December of 2024.
Meet Cody, Mia’s best friend and the star of the second book, titled “I Know That Already!”, which will be released in 2025.
Throughout 2025, some of Mia and Cody’s friends from Ms. Doodlebee’s kindergarten class will be introduced, as their stories unfold in subsequent books.
My Favorite Season:
Fall is my favorite time of year. Earlier this month, I decorated my front porch with harvest decorations, so it’s definitely autumn!
Other Happenings:
I have been extremely busy over the past few months, and I would like to catch you up on things…
- I completed two novels, “Our Selfless Journeys” and “Sleuthing-Meddling in Santa Monica”
- Both are awaiting representation.
- They have been entered into the Cinematic Prose competition (focused on adapting manuscripts into feature films and TV series).
- “Our Selfless Journeys” made the Red List during the first month (one of the top twenty manuscripts, based on scoring by professional readers).
- I have entered a screenplay titled “Our Selfless Journeys”, adapted from the aforementioned manuscript, into several screenplay competitions and I am awaiting the results (Spring of 2025).
Check out the Updates to My Site!
Loglines and new excerpts to my two novels have been added to the Books page.
