This week has the majority of us Americans cleaning, baking, and prepping for Thanksgiving.<br />
But folks in the rest of the world can enjoy the same celebration as it is essentially Harvest Time everywhere- other's may not celebrate with a turkey per say but being thankful for yet another harvest can be a world wide event-<br />
No matter where you live you can make a big dinner one day this week and invite friends, co-workers, neighbors or family you don't see often- or bring the dinner to a family in need and surprise them------------- for those in the US,<br />

Don't think I'll be getting that winner badge this year but that's okay because the reason is for the slow writing is that I have so many writing projects going on simultaneously all at various stages and with spring or summer deadlines. Not to mention an online writing class, acting classes and the preparations for my part in the local production of The Streetcar Named Desire. The Holidays are coming up as well so time for shopping and baking must be made.<br />
In addition to that Fayetteville has its Dickens Holiday Festival the day after Thanksgiving which includes the opening of the yearly production of The Christmas Carol, I'll be manning my usual Front of House position as Concessions Manager I am booked up for that weekend as well as the next 2.<br />
Current projects:<br />
Chasing Rainbows- Play for stage- what happens when 2 theater students fall in love and then find out that their individual dreams send them in opposite directions. Can their love survive?<br />
The Witch and the Warrior- (working title) Screenplay in pre-production<br />
Immortal Summer- Novel (nano)<br />
Beyond the Legend- the revision of my first novel (making improvements) which is now off the market for now.<br />
Streetcar Named Desire- playing the Flower Selling Lady.<br />
Researching next story- Movie? Book? yet undecided- a story of Gen. Sherman's march on Fayetteville, NC. The destruction of the town and the arsenal during the American Civil War from the eyes of a teenage girl who poses as a boy to join in the fight.<br />
<br />
Whatever Holiday you celebrate I hope it's a good one.<br />

Howdy folks, I have spent quite a bit of time away from my blog this past year but I have been dealing with some major family problems and health issues as well as spending time on my stage presence. I am, however, back for the moment and will continue to work on the website while I'm free.<br />
Just a little catch-up here.<br />
Some may remember that back in the spring my granddaughter, Madyson, made her stage debut in the world premier of the locally written play "PAN". She played a dual role as Nibs the lost boy and Maggie, J.M. Barrie's sister. She walked away from the final show with a nomination for best supporting actress and I walked away with one for best costume design. <br />

it went to another young lady who played Tinkerbelle, but at the ripe old age of 8 yrs. old a nomination still seems AWESOME.<br />

Since then I have been working on a film script based on my short story "The Witch and The Warrior" (you can find it under the short story tab above). The story has taken on some incredible changes. More scenes and plot twists and cast members , including two very young and handsome kilt clad highlanders. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-CG3K2ZU1QQXnEY8nHShar8jXdJNxrAKtO-TEAApWOySa-3UNp_2_GmuzLLENL0lKfIN8YnGUSWw60sU9wA986LY6vV5SP1FFoYUf-v4y6zCOzPcjm9V5wTc7LjSMfPkPPVTMDPoJV4w/s1600/aidan+turner.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-CG3K2ZU1QQXnEY8nHShar8jXdJNxrAKtO-TEAApWOySa-3UNp_2_GmuzLLENL0lKfIN8YnGUSWw60sU9wA986LY6vV5SP1FFoYUf-v4y6zCOzPcjm9V5wTc7LjSMfPkPPVTMDPoJV4w/s1600/aidan+turner.jpg" height="112" width="200" /></a></div>
<br />
Of course the hunky Sir Ioan (my visual image, Aiden Turner clad head to toe in leather) is still the hero of the story but new characters such as, the Highlanders-Duncan, Sean and Jamie Macallister, Queen Vivine and her mother Delia will be adding their twists and turns to the story as does Gwendolyn, our leading lady, with the mystery of the tattoo on her shoulder that just happens to match the one on Lady Delia's. Backstory for various main characters has been added as well as heart-wrenching tragedy and a bit comic relief.<br />
The script has just gone through it's second re-write- if you know anything about film you know how many times this will happen before it's ready to shoot- It has gone from a simple fairytale-like love story to something akin to Merlin (the series) meets Game of thrones.<br />
<br />
While I take a short break from the actual creating of the script I will be revising some of my older stories starting with my first novel Beyond the Legend, which is going off the market as of next week and when it returns, probably in January, it will be better than ever- the story won't change but I've gained some more experience since way back then and there are a few things that I think need some sprucing up. And of course I will be working on the <span style="font-family: Calibri;">aesthetics’ </span>of this site.<br />
<br />
Also If you like DEXTER then do go to Amazon and check out these books of Murder and Mystery- written by my son-in-law- who by the way has also created the new cover for Beyond the Legend.<br />

scamper around playing while looking for nuts. Yet I’ve a different outlook on
these rodents from Hades. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">As an animal lover, one who’s owned by eight birds, I’ve had
the opportunity to observe a group of squirrels around my home here in the
suburbs for the past year. The experience I’ve gained gives a whole new meaning
to the words <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">‘little darlings.’</i><o:p></o:p></span></div>

entangled within our everyday lives. Their antics and shenanigans have earned
them the name of the Squirrel Mafia. This book chronicles my ongoing battle

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-indent: 0.5in;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Squirrels are
furry and adorable animals that come from Hell. They give us the illusion
they’re cuddly, and full of sugar and spice and all that is nice. Well, if you
want that kind of story you might want to put this one down.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-indent: 0.5in;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Growing up in <st1:place w:st="on">Northern Maine</st1:place>, I honestly don’t recall seeing squirrels
around me. My life could have been preoccupied with things that mattered more,
like being a kid and spending time with family. Granted, the weather in <st1:state w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Maine</st1:place></st1:state> is harsh during
the winter months, which can last a good portion of the year.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-indent: 0.5in;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Wildlife, though,
is plentiful in this region with moose, bear, and deer. Between the different
hunting seasons, one would think people would notice squirrels running around.
As numerous and hardy as they are, one would logically think that even a region
as cold as <st1:state w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Maine</st1:place></st1:state>
would be full of them.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-indent: 0.5in;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Perhaps they
didn’t bother me back then. I still would have been under the misconception
that they were cute. Perhaps my memory is just lapsing, or I’m just in denial.
Yeah, that’s it, denial!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-indent: 0.5in;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Lesson
learned—squirrels can make you forget.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

degree in Chemistry, but is currently disabled, so writing keeps her busy. She
tends to lose all track of time. The world could be coming to an end, and she
would be oblivious to it. When writing, she envisions the scenes in her head,
and tries to imagine the reality of what is written down on paper. Different
options, scenes, and problems are noted on the side in case she can use them
later.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><st1:city w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Sharon</st1:place></st1:city> tends to
write by long hand as the flow works better for her this way. Her bookshelf
consists of works written by Stephen King, Agatha Christie, Bentley Little, and
James Patterson. The best advice she has ever received about writing was to
write about what you know. Her first thought was, “Yeah right,” but it really
is that easy. A writer just needs to know a little tidbit to turn it into a
short story, and soon enough, there’s a book.</span><br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Calibri;"><strong>For months we have been seeing posts on Facebook and all the
other social media sites (for years overall) about the topic of removing the
word “God” from the Pledge of Allegiance. My question is, why? Because not all
the people don’t believe in the Americanized Christian persona of “God”?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Before I get into a rant let me state a few
basic facts.</strong></span></div>
<strong><span style="color: orange;"></span></strong><br />

</span></span></span><!--[endif]--><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Who can name one of the most predominate reasons
for British/European Migration to the “New World”? Anyone? Religious Freedom!
That’s right people of the US, Religious Freedom. <u>The ability to worship as
one pleases without threat of persecution or government intervention.</u><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Remember?
Isn’t that why the Pilgrims (Puritans) risked life and limb to cross the
Atlantic during hurricane season? Apparently everyone has forgotten that little
tid-bit of information.</span></span></strong></div>

</span></span></span><!--[endif]--><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Fact number two- Do to the above statistic,
there are a multitude of offshoot, shall we say, </span></span></strong><a href="http://www.blogger.com/null" name="_GoBack"></a><span style="color: orange; font-family: Calibri;"><strong>philosophies,
that fall under the umbrella of Christianity. Each one, essentially, claiming
to be “God’s chosen people”.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The “God”
referred to in the Pledge, who’s “God” is he/she? The Catholic’s, the
Baptist’s, Presbyterian’s? And in step with that fact consider this; he/she is
also the very same “God” referred to in both the Jewish and Islamic faiths.
Yes, they all retrospectively, worship the same “God”. (When I say Islam, I don't mean the fanatical version of the terrorist's world, I mean the every day ordinary people who worship quietly along side the rest of us.) They may each have a different
perspective of traditions and even an alternate view of who or what Jesus was, if one at all,
but they all share the same roots.</strong></span></div>

believe in anything” people. Well, I hate to tell you all but that concept <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">is not</i> completely true. You do believe
in something. Yes, you do. If you sit and think about it real hard. I’ll bet
you believe in your own self-worth, your social values , work ethics and morals. Those things
by the way are influenced by the whole of society which in turn is influenced
by all of the above belief systems.</span></span></strong></div>

A new interactive web series by Theatrics LLC<br />
I play Annette Green AKA Agent Wallace of the Intergalactic Security agency.

<span style="color: #f3f3f3;"><strong><em>Dear Mr. Armitage,</em></strong></span><br />
<span style="color: #f3f3f3;"><strong><em>I know that for the next few days you will be inundated with well wishes from the thousands (maybe millions)of fans that make up your Armitage Army, and I must confess I am one of them. Your talent inspires me but also you ability to remain humble and sincere toward all your fans. </em></strong></span><br />
<span style="color: #f3f3f3;"><strong><em>I want to thank you for sharing your talent with the world but also for showing the world that all "Stars" do not shine only for themselves (and their pockets) and approach their followers as human beings who deserve respect. You treat your fans as you wish to be treated and that Mr. Armitage is what make them all love you to the ends of the earth.</em></strong></span><br />
<span style="color: #f3f3f3;"><strong><em>I am a actress(mostly Shakespeare) as well as a writer and though I have not reached your high level of notoriety I do have a few fans down here in the sub-basement of microcelebrity. Yes, I blush when someone says well done and smile kindly when signing a book or what have you but every once in a while you come across someone in the audience/ autograph line/ etc, that you would just love to slap. When that happens I think of you, how would Richard handle this. There are several "Stars" I know of who would not be friendly at all. Your example is much appreciated by all and a great lesson for those who share the gift of followers. If they gave out Oscars for Kindness you'd bring it home. </em></strong></span><br />
<span style="color: #f3f3f3;"><strong><em>Thank you for your talent and your humble heart and Happy Birthday!</em></strong></span>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18002862807008938355noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1619461777880904513.post-22291706201734465522013-07-10T13:11:00.001-04:002013-07-10T13:11:00.765-04:00Downtown Fayetteville-- Love living here!<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="344" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/IJiCZbvrVNY" width="459"></iframe><br />Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18002862807008938355noreply@blogger.com0
