ABOUT
"ONCE UPON A TIME IN VEGAS":
"Once
Upon a Time in Vegas" is a full-cast, fantasy maxi-series
serial drama.
I suppose
my writing bug began when I couldn't get into the advanced
acting class in high school, so I took Playwrighting/Directing
instead. I ended up being the most prolific student in the
class, producing about four plays to everyone else's one.
I loved writing!
Fast forward
a few years where I meet Rene Jones in a creative writing
class in college. She found out I write romance and voila!
Instant friends. ^_^
During
the course of this class, she wrote two short stories which
ended up being the premise for a book series, which we are
still working on. With us both having a preoccupation with
fairy tales since we were little, we decided to take classic
tales, dress them up for modern day, and weave them together
for an adult crowd. It was (and is) some of the most steamy
stuff I've ever written! (Whew!)
Fast forward
a little more where I end up living with the lovely and talented
Julie Goldstein, whom I of course admire for her versatile
voice talent. She tells me that the radio group she's involved
in, Pendant Audio (.com!), is having a casting call. Long
story, longer... I was cast and my future with Pendant began.
For a
couple of years, I had been limited by a leg injury which
prevented me from persuing acting much further and I believed
it to be a lost art to me. Getting involved with Pendant fed
my creativity and brought back something very precious in
my life. For that, I will always be grateful to Julie, Seth,
and Jeffrey. I adore all things Pendant, in my mind, they
truly set the standard not only for fan work in audio, but
for radio drama as a whole.
So nearly
a year passes... Pendant is introducing new and original shows
to the fold. I start to get the writing bug again. At first,
I pitched to Jeffrey the idea of adapting Japanese manga into
audio drama. With the problems with licensing and needing
a substantial existing fan base, the idea wasn't attractive
to me for long. However, Jeffrey mentioned the need for more
original concepts. He loved the idea of adapting our "fairy
tales" for audio and the possibilites for such a show
seemed just about endless to me.
It's definitely
different from the other Pendant shows as far as subject matter,
having more of a fantasy edge than sci-fi, focusing more on
the relationships (and of course, the sex) with the fantasy
adding in a sense of suspense. And *definitely* risque in
language and just about everything else... A sweet and very
decadent treat to indulge in, if I do say so myself!
And so,
here I am! The co-creator, co-writer, and director of mine
and Rene's "baby." With all the naughty things we
have in store, this is looking to be one exciting ride...
Won't you come along? ^_^
