Project Angel Food LEAD WITH LOVE Telethon Raises Over $1.1 Million
The program opened with a surprise greeting from Ringo Starr and from that point on, donations poured in by phone, online, and text…and they're still coming in. They sent out a call for love, and Los Angeles answered with donations big and small. People calling in were not only giving $5, $10, $100, they were telling stories to volunteers about the son they lost to AIDS, or their own cancer battle, or their friend who has survived because of Project Angel Food.

BWW Review: STREEP TEASE - A Very Funny All-Male Homage to Meryl
In his STREEP TEASE, Roy Cruz has created an entertaining, all-male revue of Meryl Streep interpretators using actual (or actual-esque) dialogue from Ms. Streep's many films. With minimal use of props and just a hint of costume enhancements, this talented nine-membered Streepers perform some side-splitting scenes with a few serious ones thrown into the mix. Some Meryl Streep roles just seem more than ripe for parody, er, homage.
Cambron Publishing Group to Publish New Book by Mary Frances Fisher
Cambron Press, an imprint of Cambron Publishing Group, LLC to Publish New Book by Mary Frances Fisher.
MK McClintock, publisher of Cambron Publishing Group LLC, announced today that Cambron Press has acquired the rights to the new novel by author Mary Frances Fisher. Lorraine Fico-White will edit.
A historical suspense novel, "Paradox Forged in Blood," is set in Cleveland, Ohio during the late 1930s. Four decades after the murder of socialite, Louis Sheridan, the cold case is resurrected with receipt of new evidence that transports detectives back to Nazi Germany and the only living witness must confront a haunting secret and her complicit actions.
It will be published in simultaneous trade paperback, large print, and e-book editions in 2016.
Comments Mary Frances, 'Writing Paradox Forged in Blood was cathartic for me following the death of my mother-a wonderfully compassionate and caring woman who possessed the soul and spirit of a true Irish lass. It enabled me to cast her in a wonderful murder mystery at a time when the world was reeling from the Great Depression before being thrust into World War II. In spite of a world gone seemingly mad, she discovers that love, family, and a sense of humor brought much-needed sanity to an otherwise chaotic time.'
Author: Mary Frances Fisher, a life-long resident of Cleveland OH, has spent the majority of her career as a legal nurse consultant and recently signed onto Taxi Agency as a commercial print model. With Germaine Moody and writer contributions from over 100 countries, she co-authored her first published work in 2013, 50 Seeds of Greatness. Her additional writing experiences include several short stories: "Earning My Wings" in Touched by an Angel: A Collection of Divinely Inspired Stories and Poems, Transcendent Publishing, October 2013; "Mercy's Legacy" in Best of Spiritual Writers Network 2013, Transcendent Publishing, December 2013; "Be Careful What You Wish For" in The Best of Spiritual Writers Network, Transcendent Publishing, January 2015.
