I'm so excited to be doing a blog book tour through Goddess Fish Promotions. Over the next two weeks, I'll be talking about my process, how "My Letter to Fear" began and about what's next for me. In addition to the interviews, I'm doing some guest posts, too. Fun stuff!

First up on the book tour is at Christine Presents

Enjoy!

I so excited to share with you a trailer for "My Letter to Fear." It's a combination of footage from the star-studded staged-reading we did for it in September and interview pieces with me. I hope it gives you an idea of the tone and themes of the collection, and that you are inspired to read it (and share it with your best friends).

I've added another clip from the staged reading of "My Letter to Fear." This piece specifically tackles the notion of expectations-- both our own for our lives and the expectations placed on us by others. Since I'm someone who often gets wrapped up in "should," this piece continues to resonate for me. Please enjoy Roma Maffia's brief clip here: https://www.goodreads.com/videos/7877...

The fabulous Dennisha Pratt took on the title piece from "My Letter to Fear." The essay is a letter addressed to fear (generally) and talks about how difficult it is to break away from a life that is governed by fear. You can watch the short video clip here: https://www.goodreads.com/videos/7825...

I'm starting off the new year by adding a new clip from "My Letter to Fear." This clip from "Expired," winningly read by Carla Renata, takes on confidence, dating and aging in Los Angeles all in one go. If you enjoy it, please share!
