About this ebook
A family trip to Hollywood would be exciting all by itself. Anyone with a love for the movies or movie stars might even expect such a trip to be magical! But unless you were completely out of touch with reality, you would never expect the unusual and amazing adventure the Gilleand Family found on their summer vacation.
This is a delightful, imaginative tale of what surprises might await someone with a heart full of dreams, a spirit of adventure, and eyes to see past the barrier of our natural world.
Come along on this fantastic journey through the magic of Hollywood.
Julie Gilleand
I live in Indiana with my husband Rod. We have three grown sons, six grandchildren, and a cat. Over the past 33 years, I have worked in 7 different church offices and a township hall as secretary, a local newspaper's call center and processing department, a dispatcher for airport police, a tour guide, an airline and a non-profit organization as a receptionist and currently am a case aide. I fit writing in however and whenever I can, be it journaling or letter-writing, devotionals or Christian-themed fiction stories. Several years ago I had the honor and pleasure of editing a book of stories in memory of the late John Denver. It started as a personal project I felt the need to do after he passed away in 1997 to honor his memory because of how his life and music had inspired me. I opened up the project to other John Denver fans, intending to put together a simple little scrapbook of memories which I would then make copies of for all who participated. Never did I dream more than 100 submissions would come flying in -- not only from fans, but even personal friends and family of John Denver's. I now have a 300-page book which has not yet found a publisher. Maybe Smashwords is where I will find a way to finally share these wonderful stories with others. This project became the adventure of a lifetime, the experience of which I will always treasure, as well as the friends I met along that journey. Writing is a passion that I would love to see one day become a profession, but until then, I just want to write!
