Currently, I am a 21 year old Junior majoring in Film & Video Studies. I have been reading for as long as I can remember and my ultimate goal is to direct and write movies, sitcoms and eventually plays and/or books.

    Sounds like we have a lot in common. I actually attended film school (after getting my bachelor's in a completely different field) once I found an old story/movie script I'd written and turned it into my first novel. I wanted to learn the craft so that I can one day turn it into the movie it has always been to me. In a perfect world, I'll be writing and directing as a career within the next 4-5 years. Let's stay in touch...

    Howdy,

    Sorry I’ve been away so long. I’ve been entirely toooooo busy.

    Anywhooo, in your Black Romance group, we’ll be reading Protect and Serve by Gwyneth Bolton next and start discussing it on 10 Oct. Now go ahead and purchase Gwen’s book now, even if you plan on reading it late, because it is a Harlequin book and you know they can be difficult to find.

    Have you heard about all the fun we had at the 2008 Romance Slam Jam? Well that’s NOTHING compared to what’s coming in 2010.

    It’s Romance Slam Jam’s Crystal Anniversary! Our theme is Back to the Future with Rochelle Alers as our keynote speaker! Everyone is Welcome To Join the Romance Slam Jam Crystal Anniversary Celebration Cruise departing from Miami, Florida, Sunday April 10th, 2010. We will be embarking on the five day Carnival Cruise to Ocho Rios, Jamaica and Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands on the “Destiny” Fun Ship.

    I see you are new around here, you might enjoy Better than Starbucks
    http://www.shelfari.com/groups/23648/about

    Better than Starbucks is one of the fastest growing literary/social groups on Shelfari, with good reason. the membership (not so much me, the founder) is literate and diverse, and by and large very intelligent. The name of the group comes from an argument that led to the founding.

    You can check out the following thread to understand a bit the naming:
