I am so excited to be traveling to California very soon to view the rough cut of the movie Deadly Sanctuary based on my first Kendall O'Dell Mystery.

Now we are still a long way to editing the final movie, but this will be my first chance to see all of the many hours of filming shot on site here in Arizona at Bumble Bee and Black Canyon City. Seeing the scene shot is one thing but seeing what the camera actually filmed is another.

I am so anxious to see how the story comes together on the screen. We were very careful to stay very close to the book. A couple of minor changes were necessary as it is hard to call up a monsoon storm when you are filming!

When I return I will share my impressions. I'm certain this will be a very emotional time as this has been in the works for so many years and is the realization of a big dream. Stay tuned!
