Sit, Cinderella, Sit: A Mostly True Memoir by Lisa Cheek Paperback Book

Description: Sit, Cinderella, Sit by Lisa Cheek Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description A debut memoir and (sort of) Cinderella story about a woman whod been told she was "too old" to create magic who flew to rural China, edited a film without speaking a word of Mandarin, and discovered her own power. Lisa Cheek loved editing TV commercials—almost as much as she loved her dog, Ron Howard. Then, she "aged out" of advertising, at 45. After being let go, Lisa got a call—at 2:45 AM—from a director who, like everyone in Hollywood, had a film he wanted to make: the original Cinderella story. Now, his dream could come true—if Lisa granted his wish. In Sit, Cinderella, Sit, Lisa Cheek shares her adventures in editing a film made on location in China—along the Tibetan border—where Mandarin was the only language spoken by everyone but her. Stuck in a house with fourteen men she couldnt understand, literally, she yearned for conversation and coffee. But there were moments of wonder and laughter. Lisa forged a bond with her translator and a woman named Sunny. She rescued one dog, and then another. "Everyone speaks Cinderella," the director had assured her. Maybe he was right. Told with humor and heart through a fairy tale lens, with flashbacks into the authors not-always-happy childhood, Sit, Cinderella, Sit is a story about what can happen when you take a leap of faith, look and hear beyond peoples differences, and dare to believe in yourself. Author Biography Lisa Cheek is a writer and former film editor. After twenty-five years editing and producing other peoples work, she finally listened to the advice of friends and coworkers and decided to tell her own stories. She lives in Los Angeles with her husband, her two mutts, Josie and Elvis Bruce Wayne, and two cats, Eartha Kitt and Trixie. When shes not working on her next book, shes traveling somewhere interesting. Lisa has several film and television scripts in various stages of development.
