Writers Showcase Featuring Jennifer Lieberman

Writers Showcase Featuring Jennifer Lieberman

makeyourownbreak.wordpress.com/

www.jenniferliebermanactor.com/

Make Your Own Break was founded by Award-Winning Writer/Performer and Producer Jennifer Lieberman to help writers and performers realize their creative goals by providing the tools to learn how to produce independent productions with little to no resources.

After years of pounding the pavement and knocking on doors with no success of breaking into the entertainment industry, Jennifer decided to take matters into her own hands and created the solo-show Year of the Slut. This show proved to be her break and the play Year of the Slut went on to win the Audience Choice Award in New York City and is now the novel Year of the What?
Since deciding to make her own break Lieberman has appeared in over 30 international stage productions and has produced over 40 independent film and theatre productions. She has penned a number of stage and screen plays and her short films have screened at the Festival de Cannes Court Métrage among other international festivals. She is currently gearing up to direct her first feature film.
During the 2020 Covid Pandemic Jennifer had the opportunity to help Executives and Business professionals hone their on-camera skills as the business world was forced into virtual communication. During this time she came up with a simple seven step program, implementing her filmmaking and performance skills, to help anyone and everyone master their virtual meeting every time. Based on her coaching experience she has published the book “Make Your Own Break: How To Master Your Virtual Meeting In Seven Simple Steps” making her method accessible to everyone looking to improve their virtual presence and presentation skills.

Author Kristine Raymond, interviewed by author Jennifer Anne Gordon

Author Kristine Raymond, interviewed by author Jennifer Anne Gordon

www.kristineraymond.com

It wasn't until later in life that Kristine Raymond figured out what she wanted to be when she grew up, an epiphany that occurred in 2013 when she sat down and began writing her first novel. Sixteen books in multiple genres later, she's added the title of podcasting host to her resume, thus assuring that she will never be idle.

When a spare moment does present itself, she fills it by navigating the publishing and promotional side of the business. When not doing that, she spends time with her husband and furbabies (not necessarily in that order) at their home in south-central Kentucky, reads, or binge-watches Netflix.

To find out more about Kristine, please visit her website at www.kristineraymond.com and follow her on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and BookBub.

Rich Davis

Rich Davis

cultofdracula.com/

From the nightmares of Rich Davis comes a unique re-imagining of perhaps the most famous tale of gothic horror ever written. Davis weaves vampire mythologies & occult traditions from around the world into the tragic tapestry of a fallen bloodline. It's Witchy! It's Wyrd! It's Helter Skelter within a hippie cult dedicated to an ancient blood goddess! You may know Bram Stoker's horror classic by heart, but you have no idea where Cult of Dracula will take you!
