Why I Wrote the Book

In 2016 I had the opportunity to try my hand at acting, starting with an extras position. As my journey progessed I had the awesome priviledge of working with film director David Walker. He saw something in me and gave me many opportunities to work with him. 

When David created Gray Shadows he gave me an opportunity to have a lead speaking role. Working with him allowed me to learn and expand my film knowledge and my creative ability. David never held back on the opportunities for me to grow. 

Gray Shadows was meant to be a two part film. After we finished filming part one I asked for the opportunity two write the script for part two. I was not met with rejection but an openness to allow me to grow. 

Covid came along, and as the year went on, many of the cast had as well. Part two was now nothing more than a memory. 

I had published my first book and was looking for something else to work on while being a caregiver for a brother who had suffered a massive coronary and was on the road to recovery. Reaching out to David for permission to turn the movie into a novel so that we could give an end to the film that never was completed. 

The rest, as they say, is history.
