I received a few dings in reviews for my novel, The Fallen, the past couple of months because of editing issues. Unfortunately, the criticisms were largely correct and it made me realize I couldn't rely on Grammarly to be my copy editor.

I love the book trailer that GraphixMotion produced to go along with My Real Name Is Hanna. The material is difficult and the project needed to be treated with sensitivity and respect, and I think the producer did that.

It gives a brief peek into Hanna's world:

"Mommy" (2014) é um filme magistral.
