More on My Business Card

Filed Under Where I am Going | 4 Comments

These are two versions of my business card. The title font is the same but the body text is different. Some of you mentioned that the font is the same as Diane’s font. I tried a whole bunch of other fonts. These are the only two I felt represented me. On the [...]

My Dream Unfolds

Filed Under Creative Projects, Where I am Going | 2 Comments

There was so much to talk about that I forgot to mention that I’m writing a screenplay entitled, “Rose”. It’s about the burgeoning friendship between a thirty year old woman and an eighty-six year old woman. It takes place in the early l970’s in Boston.
