(VIDEO) TIME OFF DOINGS

Everything--the work, the chores that the Cullums have been doing is done. There's nothing that needs to be worked on, prepared, no urgent plans, appointments, or schedule.

Emily Frankel asks her husband, John Cullum, what do you want to do?

Guess what John says...

Dustspeck said...: Maple syrup is so good, it could be served in shot glasses like they do with whiskey at bars. Depending on the quality, it could be a pricey libation. What do you think about that idea? Pancakes could just be optional?; April 3, 2018 at 6:57 AM

HOW I GOT HERE

I'm a writer, writing things that haven't brought me fame, but continue to involve me, inspire me to find an audience.

I started out as a modern dancer, contemporary, but balletic. I didn't want to be a swan, or a barefoot dancer. I wanted to dance to the music that thrilled me as a child, and made me want to be a dancer.

I began writing in the truck my first husband, Mark Ryder and I bought, in order to carry our set, props, and costumes for a long one-night-stands tour -- eighty-eighty performances in eighty-eight cities.

We were performing "Romeo and Juliet" nightly, but our marriage was breaking up. Every day while our stage manager drove us two-hundred miles or so to the next booking, I'd type a detailed description of last night -- what we did well, what we argued about, and a travelogue about the town, and comments from the people at the nightly party.

Recovering from the trip and the divorce, I sent my "car book" to a friend who said -- "Em, it's great,
but ..." And that became rewrites, and another book. Then, my marriage to actor John Cullum, and then a play that got produced, and another book, big hopes because a famous agent loved it.

The title and concept changed five times -- now it's been published, finally, as "Somebody, Woman of the Century." You can buy it, or read about it and my other five novels on Emily Frankel.com
