Facebook Beacon will not shine on the Gypsy Queen Cab!
Don't you just love the immediacy of people taking action! This great NYT article just about says it all. And, of course I signed the MoveOn.org petition. No Facebook Beacon is gonna shine on this Gypsy Queen Cab's adventures online.
After growing up in the deep south, I made my way to NYC where I worked in magazine publishing and later launched my own business. Through the encouragement of a wonderful mentor, Sam Ferber--a former ESQUIRE publisher, I began writing short stories. Later I met an agent, Peter Miller, who encouraged me to try my hand at screenplay treatments. Little did I suspect that the doors to Hollywood would open...and I worked on several Warner Bros features as a script revisor during production. I made my way to LA by way of New Orleans, and continued to write and study the craft of screenwriting. Time passes...now I live in a little town that I like to think of as Mayberry with a Gothic twist. I still visit NYC and LA for business...more on that later.
