| Introduction | Been writing ever since I learned to read at age four. A former writer of magazine and newspaper articles (focusing on personality profiles and travel), I presently have four published books available. The first is "Chicken Soup for the Soul: The Gift of Christmas", in which my story, "Our Spirit of Christmas", appears. Released in 2010, it is available through the Chicken Soup website, as well as select bookstores. The second published work (2015), co-authored with my husband, R.J., describes our unique careers in the early decades of Walt Disney World. It is entitled "Together in the Dream", available through themeparkpress.com. My first novel, "Ribbons" was published in May 2016. With my husband, we wrote a sequel to "Together in the Dream", titled, "Remembering the Magic", published in January of 2017. My "second career" as an actress and theatre director for much of my life, affords me many avenues for stories, blogs and plot lines. You can discover more about this on our combined website: www.rjogren.com. |
