Hi All,

This my first post, am gonna wing it-

I’m an actor and screenwriter, got tired of complaining about the lack of roles for women over 40. So, I wrote a screenplay about a 50-something piano teacher who pursues a dream and secretly forms an all-female rock band while her husband is running for Congress on the Republican ticket. Titled “SUGAR!”, we shot the film, won some awards, got distribution.

Dreams do come true.

Am now working on my next project, happy to have come up with a new story ( was afraid I wouldn’t!)-

Hope to connect with some of you, thanks for reading!

Congrats to you Leora! I loved reading about your success and happy to hear that you continue to write. Is "SUGAR" available to get on demand or showing anywhere currently?

Not sure if previous message got through - love your long-story-short account of what took many many months I'm sure. Well done! Please keep writing - you're good at it, clearly, and you've got the drive!
