Approximately three years ago, I had the extraordinary pleasure of connecting with a man who has since become one of my dearest friends. Typically when I interview someone, I do not know the actor personally, but in the case of Sebastian Spence, we have a fairly extensive history. He has consistently been supportive of my writing (even when it was […]

About a year or so ago, I had the pleasure of interviewing the talented young man, Connor Stanhope. As he has continued to portray Logan Shannon, the son of Jen Shannon (played by the incomparable Lori Loughlin) and in light of the fact that Hallmark Movies & Mysteries is currently featuring a special limited edition mini-series with their most popular […]

I remember the first time I saw Jason Cermak on my TV screen. He played what Hearties often refer to as “Hot Doc,” and unfortunately, we were only treated to his talents in one additional episode in season three of When Calls the Heart. Thankfully, we saw him in mystery films, a Hallmark film here and there, and once in awhile […]

More often than not, I have fellow Hallmark fans to thank for virtually introducing me to actors and actresses who are new to Hallmark (but very rarely new to the entertainment universe), and in the case of Jen Lilley, that is one hundred percent accurate. Not being a soaps aficionado myself, I rely on my friends who are to “fill […]

Sometime last year, Cameron Mathison was gracious enough to grant me a brief interview, and while I have been a longtime supporter of his, as a result of that interview, my respect for him as a person and a professional was multiplied considerably. I know how busy he is between work and family, but a few months ago, I reached […]

Because of my commitment to featuring and interacting with the entire cast of any production, last year I had the honor of interviewing Michael Karl Richards, known to “Chessies” as the much-hated Wes Winters, ex-husband of Abby {Meghan Ory} on the original Hallmark series Chesapeake Shores. While we fans often cringed when his character appeared on screen, that was merely […]

Being the Hallmark enthusiast that I am, I do tend to notice when changes occur behind-the-scenes on this network’s popular films and shows. Last year, during the first season of Chesapeake Shores, I had the privilege of interviewing John Tinker, season one show runner for this amazing show. I knew a change was occurring this season, and I am ecstatic to […]

For those who watch the Hallmark Channel, you may have seen Summer In the Vineyard when it premiered on the Hallmark Channel on August 12th (don’t worry, it’s on again many more times–check local listings). I had the opportunity to interview Marcus Rosner and Tegan Moss who co-star in this delightful film. Tegan will also be seen in Garage Sale Mystery: Murder […]

Jennifer Shannon is an expert garage sale shopper with an eye for hidden gems and a mind for solving mysteries. At her consignment store Rags to Riches, Jennifer agrees to sell some collectible tour jackets on behalf of bass player Lita Merrill, who is about to go on the road with local country singer John Dalton. On the day of […]

Last year, during season one of Chesapeake Shores on the Hallmark Channel, I connected with several of the cast members and had the opportunity to interview them. In the case of the three O’Brien sisters, the only interview I was able to snag was that of Laci J. Mailey, who plays Jess O’Brien. Thankfully, Laci was more than willing to come […]
