I impersonate him or her, even the anti hero. I think it\nis crucial that the character is likeable, flawed, relatable. I love writing\ncharacters that will really experience an arch during the movie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>NY Glam:<\/strong>\n<strong>Top 3 favorite projects that you have been involved in?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As described above, I feel Sendler\u2019s Children is really a powerful story as well as Truth Be Told and both have serious academy award potential. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I am also very passionate about Divided We Fall, not so much because it is my own story about survival, but because it is a story about forgiveness and the need for more collaboration and compassion and I feel it is an important message in the world today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>NY Glam:<\/strong>\n<strong>Do you express&nbsp;yourself&nbsp;creatively in any other ways?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I previously wrote 40 books about success and the Law of Attraction which I am told to be a world expert.
