    During the time I’ve been an interviewer (almost a year now), I have kept my eyes peeled for interviewers who do something rather unique in this realm, and I remember noticing this program called Get Cooking With the Stars.  More often than not, the show either featured people I had just featured on my site or those I hoped to eventually highlight, and I […]

She has penned such beloved films as Backyard Wedding, Stop the Wedding, Operation Christmas, and so many more, and since I am a […]

My family and […]

    Because I closely follow Hallmark actors, writers, producers, directors, etc., I do my best to apprise myself of the “new kids in town.” When I discovered that Ella Fairlie wrote the book upon which The Christmas List was based, I knew I had to contact her at once for an interview. Previously, I was not even aware of her existence, but Ella […]

I will always claim that festival opened my eyes, and Maja Aro was my instructor for “Stuntwomen 101.” Therefore, I am pleased to share with you my interview with […]

This weekend, Finding Father Christmas based on two books by author Robin Gunn, will air on Hallmark Movies & Mysteries. Recently, Robin agreed to answer a few questions concerning […]
