As you may know, in addition to my biz I also work as a screenwriter here in Los Angeles! This was something I never (ever) thought I’d have the courage to do, but I pulled on my big girl pants and moved my family to LA last year to give it a real shot.

I’m literally bouncing-out-of-my-chair excited to announce that my first movie – GIRL FOLLOWED – premieres on Lifetime April 2nd (check your local listings if you wanna watch!)

If you have a dream, whether it’s penning a spine-tingling crime novel, directing and starring in your own movie, entering a weight-lifting competition, traveling the world, writing Lifetime movies like me, or any other thrilling passion – don’t let anything or anyone stop you.

When people warn you about how your dream is “sooo unrealistic” – you can say, “Uh huh. Thanks for sharing.”

Twirl away and shout: “Nothing is unrealistic. Because I create my own reality.”
