But with only days left before their wedding, a series of mishaps threaten to derail the carefully planned event. It’s a test of love, nerves, and patience as Madeline and Hugo grapple with inclement weather, last-minute venue changes, malfunctioning appliances, and an attendant “in the family way.” Meanwhile, the often-contentious Lyons Pride must pull together to help overcome these obstacles and give the bride and groom a day to remember.   A direct sequel to The Advent of Lady Madeline, April When They Wed is the first entry in The Lyons Brides, a mini-series set within the family saga, The Lyons Pride.

"I didn't choose to have this feeling... I loved him madly, but he didn't even know I existed... or so I thought. When one-sided love turns into obsession, where does the mind end and madness begin?" Based on a true story: Maria and Ahmed, two neurodivergent Egyptian-American teens, share an unspoken bond built on fleeting glances and misunderstood emotions. What starts as a quiet admiration becomes an overwhelming obsession, distorting their perception of love, reality, and each other. As Ahmed battles emotional outbursts, nightmares, and impulsive decisions, Maria is left to question whether their connection is ever real or just a projection of her longing. They struggle to understand: is their love a delusion or a truth? The Track of The Eyelids has been produced as a short feature film with AI and has been selected for: 1) Lift-Off Filmmaker Sessions Film Festival 2024. 2) Lift-Off First Time Filmmaker Sessions Film Festival 2025. Theme songs have been produced for the story which can be found online. [Read More]

Fifteen years married. One lit window across the courtyard. And tonight, Margot does not want to watch anymore. She wants to be watched. For months she has caught herself looking at the man who reads by lamplight across the way. Then one ordinary Tuesday she tells the one person who matters, her husband, and Theo does not laugh, does not flinch. He reaches over and opens the blinds. What starts as a confession becomes the most honest night of a very good marriage: lamps on, curtains up, fifteen years of shorthand turned all the way up. Nobody strays. Nobody is touched but each other. A marriage catching fire from the inside, with the lights on. [Read More]
