Happy New Year!
Dear Readers,
Finally, I’ve had several days around Christmas and New Year to have a life with my daughter. Time off from work, charities, writing, school, business. My daughter and I spent a great Christmas. She got way more presents than she probably should have, but that’s what happens when you survive a near death experience so recently. I love, love, love her and I dedicated almost all of my free time to her. Santa came and it was magical. She still thinks I must not have been such a good girl cause Santa didn’t leave me anything. But I tell her Santa gave me the best present I could ever hope for….her…alive and whole. She understands and I tease her and ask her if Santa should have wrapped her in paper and put a bow on her head? We laugh. I am happy. Sorry readers if my posts are full of sentimental silliness, but my life revolves around an eight year old and my sense of humor, timing and priorities are elementary school second grade level and I relish all of it.
2008 promises to be an outstanding year….. I am looking towards the light and reaching for my dreams. May this year be the best year ever for all of you. Love, Light, Health, Happiness and Prosperity!

Hi Dawn. I’m came across your website after seeing Wonderland. I came across the movie awhile back but I was still in my active addiction and couldn’t bare to watch it at the time. I see on your Bio that your were born in Point Pleasent NJ, I live two towns over. I been in active recovery for awhile now and I think it’s great that you’ve wrote and book and reach out to others and share your experience, strength and hope. You have quite a story.

hey dawn…
i just watched wonderland last night for the first time. I wasn’t aware of the story, john holmes or the wonderland murders but became fascinated after watching. Just want to let you know that you must be extremely strong and you give hope to a lot of women who are or have in the past been in sucha situation. anyway im just a 22 year old kid but the story fascinated me and you sure made a lot of women proud. your story is a testament of what can happen and it seems you hae enjoyed a bright life.
thanks, matt brooks

Wow! How cool is it to find out that Dawn Schiller has a blog? I have read about everything that I can get my hands about John Holmes and is so neat to find a blog by someone that knew him so intimately. I even own “Boogie Nights” and “Wonderland” on DVD, not to mention the extra DVD’s that came with Wonderland. Once I sent away for a paperback that had been recently published by Laurie Holmes but I never got the book or my money refunded. Over the last few days I have been trying to catch up with all the entries in this blog. It is amazing that you and Sharon have remained such close friends over the years and are now living under the same roof. I am very sorry to hear that Sharon is sick and my prayers go out to her. I am definitley interested in your new book whenever it comes out. I would like to know your opinion about the Wonderland movie…did it come anywhere near the truth? Anyway I am rambling on a bit. I tend to do that with people that have a bit of celebrity about them. I look forward to reading your book and getting your take on what happened. Did the Wonderland people consult with you and Sharon? Thank you for sharing your life by blogging!
