The Sherlock Pines Gang is ready for their close-up! After years of hard work, I finished writing a feature film adaptation of my 2019 kids comedy adventure book That Summer We Stole Our Permanent Records. Woohoo!  I love the world that I created in the screenplay so much! (tbh I wish I could snap my fingers and update the book.) The screenplay has been on the festival circuit, and I hope you all can watch it someday! ♡
