I moved to New York City when I was 17 and then to Milan, Italy, and Paris, France, where I wrote my first book. At 14 I was discovered as a model and at 16 we made the move to Los Angeles for me to be with the Nina Blanchard agency. We drove across the country and moved to San Diego when I was 13 (that is the movie Tumbleweeds). I discovered the power, creativity, and freedom in writing and acting.
My life on stage as a cursing 8-year-old writer and a mime at the mall began. My mother always encouraged me to “write it down” so I began writing short stories and novels and winning writing contests. When I went to live with my bio mom at 8, I began cursing (I still drop F bombs). (which I now share in a myriad of ways!)Īfter a Family Court hearing (biggest cesspool of perpetrator networks in this country btw) my bio dad and step mom were told to get therapy and I went to live with my real mom and my step siblings went with their dad.
When we were removed from my biological father’s home when I was 8 and put into foster care, I thought that was my escape route but we were abused there too and starved! I knew that I had a calling to do something great in the world, I just didn’t know what it was or how to get out of the cage I was in. I grew up in a home of incest and domestic violence and lived in fear and anxiety and poor in the mountains of North Carolina.ĭespite living with abuse and unconscious parental units, I always kept my sense of humor and my firecracker spirit. That does not mean that I’m a huge churchgoer. If I had not been a model, I would have been a preacher, so I write movies and books as sermons. I love my own company so if you don’t, I’m happily having a grand ole time and eating well while I do it. Angela Shelton put the F back into my Life!
