synopsis 

What would you do if you discovered 3.2 million dollars inunmarked bills in 4 large, black garbage bags in the middle of a large room filled with dead bodies at a deserted house atthe end of a long, gravel road while doing the 2010 Census?

Project: I’m a consultant for Mary Kay cosmetics, and the company is putting together three all-woman production teams to create a documentary series to educate and illuminate the cause of domestic violence. As a MK consultant, I’m personally ineligible to participate, but I think it offers a great opportunity for some of our local behind-the-scenes talent to get involved! The application is simple, but it lists June 30 as the deadline for receiving applications. So I hope it catches someone’s eye! There may be a niche in there for writers too, or anyone who has an inspiring story to share about overcoming domestic violence. If not their own story, perhaps someone they know.

Please, let me know if you choose to get involved… Me and the Columbus area MK Nation would love to cheer you on! Thanks for your interest!
