Hi there Stage 32ers :)
I've been encouraged to say "G'Day" (that's how we say "Howdy do" in Oz... that's Australia). Not that I'm Australian. I'm actually British -- born and raised. Confused? I can confuse much more than that ;)
I sent my first story to a publisher when I was 9 years old. I've been a bestselling author, biographer to the good and great, a multi-award winning documentary film producer, I have three major feature films in various stages of development with my assorted Hollywood production partners, my soul belongs to the endangered wildlife of Africa, my heart belongs with my family, I live with permanent jet lag dealing with so many time zones around the world on a daily basis, I am the care giver for my feisty 87 year old mom (sometimes I spell American 'coz English and Australian gets boring), I live in the subtropics of the Gold Coast in Queensland with a menagerie of tame wild animals, most notably my beloved black swans who are the focus of my latest hit anthropomorphized novel "Swan Song" (www.SwanLakePress.com). That one is in process of being adapted into an animated musical feature (once the writer's strike is over). You can find out more about my wildlife docs at www.LandOfTheFreeMovie.com and more about me generally at www.LynnSanter.com.
I've never been married - by choice - no time (and I get bored easily). I expect everyone to work with the same speed and efficiency that I do and get uber frustrated when they don't (which is situation normal in La La Land). I work my surname during the Christmas months (who wouldn't? ho ho ho). I believe (some) rules were made to be broken. I love to sing, dance, swim, create... I'm a bit crazy!!

Hello Lynn Santer. I'm honoured to meet you and can't thank you enough for sharing your amazing life. I just had a quick glance over your site and I think you should evaluate the chances of spreading your particular creative universe into the transmedia storytelling world.

"G'Day" and "Howdy" are two of my favorite greetings, Lynn Santer. And "Good day" and "top of the morning."

Cheetahs are one of my favorite animals, Lynn Santer! He looks like he's enjoying that head scratch.

Maurice Vaughan that cheetah was actually purring. They’re the only big cat that can purr. And it is soooo unusual to see any kind of facial expression on a cheetah… very special. And Leonardo… you’re hilarious :D.

I'm not sure if I knew that, Lynn Santer. I like when cheetahs take off running. They pick up speed SO fast.

I have to ask how you were able to get a picture with a cheetah, and thanks for the advice.

Wayne… I was a major financial supporter of a rescue and rehabilitation program in Namibia. These pix were taken on one of my inspection visits 1999. And you’re welcome xx
