First, Im a diehard romantic who is still waiting for her own fairytale!

Second, I love bringing joy to people, whether its through movies or music.

They always make me feel hopeful and I give a shot to get that feeling spread to the viewers.

Its also so awesome when I get to write a movie for friends.

Trevor and I have wanted to work on something for a while now and this was the perfect project.

I adopted an age appropriate for my physical appearance, never imagining I would one day become a writer.

In a business fraught with age bias, I did what I felt I had to do to succeed.

Before she left, Reeves gaveWeston a role as a teenager in one episode.

People thought that we let her go because of it.

None of that was true at all, Reeves recalled to EW.

The story was blown so crazy out of proportion from the perspective of our relationship with Riley.

It got turned into a scandal that Im not sure ever was.

We liked her writing.

Shes garnered a dedicated following for her music and even wrote a song forApples, Orchards & Romance.

Im so excited to also be working on my first Christmas album.

There are a few new Christmas songs of mine that I am adapting into movies as well.

Fingers crossed that I will be combining my acting, writing and music all together in a movie soon!

Supervising producers are James Mou and W. Michael Beard.

Associate Producer is Victor St. Pierre.
