Welcome to day one of what I plan to do all month–a blogging/journal challenge. As a part of a month-long challenge I am hosting in a Facebook group, I decided to take things to the next level and actually blog the prompts instead of merely journaling. When it comes to “favorites,” it is always a real struggle for me. I […]

From the moment Benjamin Ayres joined the Hallmark family, I was convinced he was someone exceptional. Last year, he finally granted my request for an interview (okay, I made several requests because I’m very persistent), and we instantly connected. Thankfully, Hallmark fosters the same admiration for Ben that I do, and this past weekend, we witnessed his 2020 Hallmark Christmas […]

A couple of years ago, a young man burst onto the Hallmark scene, and while I had no idea who Tyler Hynes was at the time, I knew I wanted to interview him. Immediately! I reached out, and an instant connection and partnership were established. Since that time, Tyler has become one of Hallmark’s “hotties” who seems to tackle any […]

If there is one actress who is the very epitome of everything lovely, uplifting, kind, dedicated, and essentially the embodiment of all that the Hallmark network represents, it would have to be Nikki DeLoach. From the moment she exploded onto her first Hallmark set, there is no doubt that she has become a force with which to be reckoned in […]

Whenever I think of Andrew Walker, an enormous smile comes to my face. Not only was he one of the first Hallmark actors I ever noticed and knew by name, but he was one of the first actors I ever interviewed. He has been nothing but gracious and supportive in all the time I have known him, and a little […]

It is my distinct privilege today to feature yet another blogger whom I have known online for quite some time. Rissi owns and runs the popular blog Finding Wonderland, and I am happy to share her thoughts today on Hallmark and their wondrous Hallmark Christmas romances. Ten years ago, Hallmark Channel debuted its popular Countdown to Christmas campaign. Of course, […]

Of course, since I’m a writer, it is always a joy to feature authors, screenwriters, and other members of the writing community on my site, and Barbara Ankrum is one of those special people who’s about to have a rather special dream actualized. On Saturday, November 23rd, her book-turned-movie, Holiday Hearts, will premiere on the Hallmark Movies & Mysteries Channel […]

From the moment I first spied Madison Smith as Tyler Burgess, the love interest of Hannah Shannon in Garage Sale Mystery: The Wedding Dress, I knew Madison was destined for prominent things. Over the past four years, I have watched Madison mature and expand his horizons with Hallmark and elsewhere. I was so pleased to see him featured in Write Before […]

How is it even possible that I have interviewed Cindy Busby five times already? I guess it just demonstrates the fact that I absolutely adore this woman, and I will invariably go out of my way to support her in all of her endeavors! In anticipation of her first official Hallmark Christmas movie (LOOK IT UP–all the others have been […]
