With my background as a filmmaker and actress, it was easy to write and shoot ten short videos based on the book. Now, I also have a facebook fan page.įor Revealing Eden, we created an incredible, interactive site where fans have been posting their own “mating” videos or commenting about Eden’s blog posts. It’s such a thrill to hear from my readers! I get a lot of email through my website, which I’m happy to answer.
Taking her from this oppressed girl to someone who is willing to embrace everything, her strength, her inner beauty, even love, was a great journey, a revelation, really. In creating her, I stole bits from myself and came to realize that I, too, needed to open my heart to love and stop judging myself based on my appearance. Her white skin brands her as a Pearl, ugly and undesirable.
