DREAMWalker Group recently saw the movie, “WHAT THE #$*! DO WE KNOW?!” We grokked the film so much that we decided to create profiles for all the folks interviewed in the film.

From the film's website:

"'WHAT THE #$*! DO WE KNOW?!' is a new type of film. It is part documentary, part story, and part elaborate and inspiring visual effects and animations. The protagonist, Amanda, played by Marlee Matlin, finds herself in a fantastic Alice in Wonderland experience when her daily, uninspired life literally begins to unravel, revealing the uncertain world of the quantum field hidden behind what we consider to be our normal, waking reality."

Here are links to the interview's profiles at DREAMWalker Group (http://dreamwalkergroup.com):

It seems that the book "King & King," by Linda De Haan and Stern Nijland, is causing a little controversy in Wilmington, North Carolina. The book published in March 2002 by Tricycle Press, the children's division of Ten Speed Press of Berkeley, California, is a children's story about a prince whose true love turns out to be another prince.

"I was flabbergasted," said parent Michael Hartsell, who confiscated the book their daughter brought home from the school library. Said Hartsell, "My child is not old enough to understand something like that, especially when it is not in our beliefs." Michael and Tonya Hartsell plan to file a complaint with the library committee and are thinking about transferring their daughter to another school.

The sequel to the book, "King & King Family," was published this year (2004) by Tricycle Press.

THOSE BEST LAID PLANS

We at DWG have great intentions, which like so much else, often fall by the wayside. Take this BLOG/Journal. It is our intention to add to it daily or, dread, weekly. But a site must be maintained and we often find ourselves nurturing said site, rather than talking to YOU and keeping YOU up to date and READING good books. That said, please accept this moment's apology. We are doing our best.

Now, speaking of books, check out Leslea Newman's "The Best Cat in the World" -- just published by Eerdmans Books. For more information on this picture book -- and a list of Leslea's other books (an entire library of great reading, trust us) -- see her bio.

Also just released by Sarabande Books is Brian Leung's "World Famous Love Acts." This collection of stories, which won the 2002 Mary McCarthy Prize in Short Fiction, are about "loss, twined irrevocably with hope, a hope that surges below the surface of all life ..." You can read more about the book at Brian's bio page here at DWG.

This page at DREAMWalker Group represents our committment to keep you aware of things happening here at DWG ... and happenings we hear about in your creative world. You can help keep us informed by writing us with your own information at journal@dreamwalkergroup.com.

Another new feature is the "ATTENTION ... Who/What just landed on our desk?" marquee located in the upper right-hand side of our homepage (http://dreamwalkergroup.com). When we receive media announcements or books for review, we'll place them here to notify visitors to the site. We'll also link to the author/artist's bio page here at DWG. For instance, see our first entry, "New Release Notification: Lesléa Newman's "The Best Cat in the World." Click here." We certainly encourage publishers and artists to take it upon themselves to keep us informed by adding us to your mailing lists and putting us on your media lists:
