An after-screen chat with Theresa Godly about her parental alienation short, The Stranger I Love http://www.tinyurl.com/tsilfm

A few snaps from the private screening of The Stranger I Love by Theresa Godly. A short film based on real events of parental alienation. #tsil #thestrangerilove #parentalalienation #mamrockfilms
Yesterday, Theresa Godly’s short film highlighting parental alienation was shown to an audience of supporters who had helped make it happen. Almost 140 people, from crew to financial pledgers, from all over the world attended to watch the 15 minute flick based on her own real life experiences. How did it bear up? In short, incredibly well. With everybody applauding as soon as the credits started rolling, as each of them resonated with elements of the story as it played out.
On a personal level, I could fully relate to the film. I have been at both ends of the scope of parental alienation. It is a psychological abuse of powerplay by one parent in order to gain control and favour of a child over the other parent. I clearly remembered my mother saying bad things about my father when I was young. These things I would discover as falsehood as I reached adolescence. Not to mention having been moved 200 miles away from him at the age of four.
The sweeping score added another level to the already emotionally impacting story and it was very clever to convey all the emotions that come with PA into a 15 minute film along with outstanding raw performances. Shock, disbelief, pain, it was all channelled through the screen into the audiences minds.
#ParentalAlienation is an abuse, yet treated in family courts as a civil matter. What is civil about somebody reprogramming your mind to sever a healthy bond with a parent and their extended family? Countless people take their own lives every year due to this horrendous coercive control and it is civil?
Bullshit! Abuse is abuse, yet the courts see it as exempt because it isn’t a physical abuse. Every years, thousands lose all of their money in trying to combat the alienating parent’s actions. Some cannot get any legal aid at all.
It is with this film and causes like Parental Alienation Awareness that we wish to educate and spread awareness of this dreadful social issue. Theresa is currently raising money via crowdfunder in order to get The Stranger I Love into film festivals everywhere. If you can help, please pledge here https://www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/tsil-festivals-marketing
As featured in a previous post, a short film by actor Theresa Godly has been made, and the trailer released. Having been alienated from my own father as a child, this project means so much to people that have been through Parental Alienation. It is a form of psychological abuse that effects everybody except the controlling parent. This film highlights the story of Theresa’s own experience, and also stars the amazingly talented Leon Ung. With the film now complete, we are reaching out for donations for submission to various film festivals all over, in order to spread awareness of this terrible social issue. Enjoy the trailer, and please click this link to make a pledge to aid our endeavour https://www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/tsil-festivals-marketing

I have just released Literally Immersive Gamebooks 5, a sequel to the popular Paranormal Hero. It is already getting good remarks in the forums, and, if the stories feedback is also as positive, a third Paranormal Hero book will be put into production. So why not put your psychic skills to good use in Paranormal Hero 2 : The Nightmare’s Lair – now available on Amazon http://mybook.to/nightmareslair
Greetings. Owing to the great reviews and certain inspirations from my eldest daughter, the next book in the series will be none other than Paranormal Hero 2. Get ready to test those psychic powers and solve the mystery at Dunkelheit Repose.
Being an author, I have taken the opportunity to use their online Send A Parcel service. You buy the postage, then a postman will collect the parcels from home with your address labels. It’s great. However! There is a glitch in the system that sometimes arises. Once they have collected your parcels, they scan the codes with their PDA gadget. Sometimes this sends a faulty email to you saying collection has failed. Rest easy though, as this is a glitch, you can still use your tracking codes. Until the parcel is scanned again at the next depot the resulting message may say We’re Expecting It. This should change as the parcel passes through each depot in a normal manner.
