    I live in Conyers Ga . I moved here from Boca Raton Florida and prefer living here much more.
    I just checked to see what kind of series you have filmed in Conyers and was truly amazed how popular these series were.
    I was wondering if you would like to do one more series in Conyers. I specialize in narsissm and could be able to be a great help in writing and even directing the series.( I have personally lived among them for 55 years)
    Now I have been asked by numerous people to bring awareness to the most devistating mental illness- what would be better than series.
    Thank you for reading . Have a great day!
