She created and coordinated the MT Screenwriting Competition in 2020, sponsored by the Bigfork Independent Film Festival, to find and honor Montana screenwriters.


She's published numerous personal development books, anthology chapters and articles about “living, loving and expressing your life story.”  Her books The Akashic Muse, Your Akashic Record Coloring Journal and Living in Balance for Boomers can be found on Amazon in print or ebook versions.

Barbara has also guided writers and others to overcome their fears about public speaking as a clinical hypnotherapist and guided imagery master facilitator. She also co-founded two Toastmasters specialty clubs (one based live in Los Angeles and one that meets online-only) designs to  help all types of writers learn skills for confidently speaking about their work and themselves. 


She is co-teaching a new course in spring 2023 with Glenn at Flathead Valley College on crafting and presenting "true flash essays" to live audiences. They are also planning to co-host live quarterly Story Concerts in Flathead Valley MT in 2023.

NOW WRITE! SCREENWRITING: Screenwriting Exercises from Today’s Best Writers and Teachers (anthology) Now Write! Writing Guide Series 

(Tarcher Books 2011)


“Now Write! Screenwriting is an excellent collection of essays and writing exercises by a wide array of writing professionals compiled by Sherry Ellis and Laurie Lamson. This well-structured book offers very practical solutions to almost any writing crisis that could arise. All of the contributors are working writers who have been in the trenches themselves and therefore, understand the many challenges of writing and the creative process… What I most enjoy is that it’s a book that be picked up and randomly opened for pearls of wisdom and encouragement without having to be committed to a long read or one point of view…" ~~ Divariffic


"A Must for the Writer’s Library: If you’re a screenwriter, this book is one that should be in your library. It’s an amazing compilation of advice from working and successful writers as well as respected instructors… It’s a breeze read and if you take the advice to heart and mind, you will definitely improve as a writer." ~~ JK


"A great mix of practical and creative…The chapters are highly focused, and bite-sized for easy consumption, and the talent behind them is quite staggering – as well as their willingness to part with great techniques…" ~~ Matthew Nagle
