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.

It’s an idea I’ve had for thirty years and have decided to take the plunge and write it. Initially, I found it difficult but once the process began, it took on a life of its own. In the words of director, David Lynch, “It always goes by in fragments and then the whole thing starts revealing itself.” Basically, J.K.Rowling – the Potter author- said the same thing in an interview I heard her give.
