I am really excited, because the feature, Ave Maria, that I shot with writer/director Chris Aurilia has been accepted into the International Horror and Sci Fi Film Festival! The newest teaser trailer can be viewed at this link.
The festival will take place October 14-17 in Arizona. The screening will be at 8pm on October 16th. I will be in attendance, so if any of you out in AZ can make it, I’d love to see you there! Click here to purchase tickets.
The last time I wrote you, you heard about my littlest dog, Churro, passing away. It was very tough and I still miss him so much. I wasn’t sure how long the healing process would take or if I would even be able to bring another little dog into my family for while. I decided to visit a shelter and I am happy to let you know that I have a new furry member of my family! His name is Moe and you can see a picture of him below. My recommendation this month is to ADOPT! I can’t tell you how sad I was to walk into that shelter and see THREE dogs to every cage because of the overcrowding. When I brought Moe home, he came from one of the BEST shelters I have ever seen, but he had fleas, was malnourished, sick, and it took him a good month to finally get over the trauma of being in such a situation. Please, if you are considering opening up your home to an animal, check out the shelters in your area first. A great resource for searching for adoptable pets is PetFinder.com.
With Love,
Joanna
(and Moe!)
