    “I have written, directed and produced a documentary film titled, “The Sand Creek Massacre,” a dark day in American and Colorado history. It has won many awards. It has been screened and aired in nearly every major city in the country. It has been cataloged into the Smithsonian. It has been screened in elementary, middle school, college, universities, before veteran’s groups, Indian groups, organizations, corporations, and a host of local community groups interested in helping people learn, through the film, about racism and hate so that they can elevate their understanding about these two devastating beliefs to improve community relations with everyone. You can see more information about it at http://www.sandcreekmassacre.net. You can also watch a modified version of the film at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ylmM2KL5D7w&t=41s.

    I would like to invite you to create venues so that I can come show the film and answer questions about the subject matter of the film. I made the film to give the Cheyenne and Arapaho people a voice. They tell the Sand Creek Massacre story in the film. It is very revealing and very compelling, Please contact me so that we can work out screenings of the film.”

    The Secret to Effective Writing

    A favorite Zen story in which three men are
    observing a flag fluttering in the breeze: One
    man says, The flag is moving. The second
    man says, The wind is moving. The third
    man says, You are both wrong, it is your
    mind that is moving.

    If you look inside of yourself, you will see
    the information you need to be successful.
    This information contains everything you
    need to be successful. The secret to
    tapping into this information is contained
    in The Zen of Writing.

    How so, you ask?

    Look inside of yourself and you will see
    the answer. This is the secret to successful
    writing and/or filmmaking. Look inside
    of yourself and you will see the secret.

    Why is it that Steven Spielberg is a
    successful filmmaker? He has the ability
    to look inside of himself and see the secret.

    Why is Stephen King a successful novelist?
    He has the ability to look inside of himself
    and see the secret.

    What do you seek when you write a letter,
    or make a corporate video? Do you look
    outside or inside of your mind and heart?
    When you look inside of your mind and
    heart you enhance your ability to see the
    secret to being successful in your undertaking.
    When you look outside of your mind and heart,
    you have no ability to see the secret to being
    successful.

    What rings true in each one of us is our
    ability to think and feel. When we tap
    into those senses to write a screenplay
    or make a film, we look inside of ourselves.
    We see the secret to successfully writing the
    screenplay or making a film successful.

    You might ask, but I do that and I see
    nothing. The reason you see nothing is
    because you allow yourself to avoid seeing
    the secret. You allow yourself to avoid seeing
    the secret because you do not know how to
    see the secret.

    With The Zen of Writing, you will see the secret.
    You need simply to contact me to learn how to
    tap into that secret.

    Peace, Light and Love,
    The Zen of Writing
