About me:
Visit me at: my blog, twitter, facebook, linkedin, gotcast.com/m_aluotto---------------------
After graduating from FSU I went home for a year to save money to move to L.A. Once there, I worked as a talent agency intern, movie extra, and office temp while writing short stories on the side. In 2007 family circumstances brought me home to FL where I proceeded to write a novella and memoir while working at a scuba diving co. which is where I am now. Following are descriptions of my memoir and novella, respectively -----------------------------------------------------------
The Journey of an Aspiring Artist ---------------------------------------------------------------------
Michelle moves to L.A. at the age of twenty-three to pursue a life as an artist but falls in love with a criminal and becomes his victim in the process. She refuses to see his betrayal for what it is and holds out hope that he’ll change. Within a year, her life is turned upside down and she is forced to recover from both emotional and financial loss. When she finally breaks free, she turns her experience into a story with a lesson for women who find themselves in similar situations. This translates into a form of artistic expression that forges the identity she always wanted to gain from the beginning.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Roses and Sunshine -
----------------------------------------------------------------------
A third-person version of the above, told from both Michelle's and Brett's points of view. Michelle, early twenties, seeks validation through artistic and romantic pursuits upon completing college in FL and then moving to L.A. Her failure to win one's love in addition to being victim of his crime (theft) challenges her sense of self worth. Brett is a fellow artist whose worldliness contrasts Michelle's innocence and lures her into a life she hasn't known. The ideals they supposedly shared in terms of standing out from the crowd are ultimately eclipsed by the choices they make. Only after being hurt does Michelle feel she might be able to identify with Brett's loss of innocence, but by then it's too late. Thus the irony creates a bittersweet ending in which Michelle anticipates using her experience to express herself artistically (through writing) as a means of gaining the validation she originally sought.
