Sharon Letts: Producer and screenwriter in Los Angeles, California.

Having introduced myself prior, I'll give a little 101/backstory....

Producer/writer from Los Angeles/Television, sent up to Humboldt County to produce a news show; lead features writer for Times-Standard; presented w/breast cancer, given cannabis oil protocol from longtime Humboldt farmer/remedy maker; cancer & pharma went away.

Spent past seven + years since, writing of cannabis as remedy for many publications, globally, with a focus on patient profiles; including celebrities as cannabis patients: Willie Nelson, Olivia Newton-John, Jim Belushi (shadowing brother, John) Tommy Chong, Leon Hendrix (shadowing brother Jimi), and more. Subjects have included successfully replacing opiates with cannabis and Plant Assisted Therapy in addiction recovery (PAT); cannabis use in pregnancy, for children, treating cancer, and more.

My proudest achievements this past year were securing interviews with Jim Belushi (Weed World Magazine cover); and Olivia Newton-John (Culture Magazine cover), discussing husband, John Easterling's apothecary, treating Olivia's cancer with cannabis oil. Follow-up schedule this year on Olivia replacing OxyContin with cannabis oil.

Most notable mention was a profile on my body of work since crossing over from mainstream media and into the cannabis space, by Warren Bobrow for Forbes magazine. This work has been a calling, grateful for the recognition.

I've come back to television, and am now developing/shopping intelligent shows on cannabis. Have a sizzle in post for a lifestyle docu-reality, What's in Your Stash? based on a popular series I write for High Times Magazine.

Have a pilot written for TV series, Cannaopolis, based on a fictional serial, initially published monthly, I wrote for Dope Magazine (eBook Amazon). The TV concept culled characters from books, Cannaopolis and Humboldt Stories (winner, 2016 Tokey Awards). The stories are fictional based on fact from my time in Humboldt County.

Having put cancer into remission and replaced pharma more than seven years ago, my own stories of healing have been published globally, in many languages, under my brand, Educated Stoner; with several projects pending, including: a book, retail merchandise, and a magazine show.

Developing/shopping a list of intelligent concepts via reality, documentary, and magazine concepts for TV available for review.

Good luck to everyone this year. 2020 vision!

Hi Stage 32 fam! I'm Amanda and I'm the Managing Director here at Stage 32. I'm responsible for finding you some great educators to bring to the Stage 32 community and the great partnerships we have for you with Cannes, Raindance, Hollyshorts, AT&T, Peerspace and more. Just wanted to say hello to everyone. You inspire me every day so keep creating!

Originally from mainstream media, I was a producer in Los Angeles when I was brought up to Humboldt County, in Northern California, ten years ago, to produce a news show. While there, five years ago, I presented with breast cancer.

Due to my working in media in the cannabis capitol of the world, I was offered a strong cannabis oil, successfully putting the cancer into remission, while doing away with numerous prescription meds and supplements for myriad conditions/ailments.

This changed my life and career forever, and I've written of nothing else since, with a focus on patient, caregiver, and medicine maker profiles, covering six states and three countries on the subject.

This past year I’ve come full-circle back to television and film, developing intelligent magazine, reality, and documentary shows on the subject. I've also penned a pilot script (with co-writer), from a book I wrote, Cannaopolis being shopped now. Cannaopolis is a family drama based on fact, from my time, friendships, and experiences in Humboldt County.

All-in-all, I've become a niche out of circumstance; knowledgeable on cannabis as medicine (would love to segment and field produce on the subject), with a solid background in production.

Thanks to Stage 32 for giving me a platform to share. For the past five years I've been stuck in the middle of the cannabis community, while merely peering back into mainstream, waiting for the masses to be educated on the subject.
