A Bit of Encouragement

I have included the illustration below to encourage my readers. These words were discovered cast in stone (okay, cement) in Hollywood at the Kodak Theater, located next to the world famous Mann’s Chinese Theater. They are part of an artistic statement designed by Erica Rothenberg and entitled “The Road to Hollywood.” This concrete “red carpet” includes many quotes from directors, producers, actors, and now, of course, a key grip. Who knew? If you turn back to the acknowledgments section of this book, you will learn that this key grip is my good friend José Santiago. Besides being very, very proud of José, I am telling you about him to let you know that you can also make it here! (P.S. Look Mom … I have arrived!)
