WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING

"This book is a gold mine. So many insights, and filled with a wonderful story of making it through the belly of the Hollywood beast. An excellent read I highly recommend."

- Director-Producer, Penumbra Pictures

Laurie, I’m so glad you and Story Ripples are still moving forward with this concept. With so many epitaphs being written about the industry, and with this country’s political situation about to change for the worse, now more than ever, we need to engage the public with a new approach and harness the collective energy that popular entertainment can bring, to make a positive impact on the world. I will dive into your course, as your book Values has given me (and I hope others) the confidence to move forward with not-for-profit storytelling. 😊
