Meet The Mistreated Project Team

I'm Angela Margaret Newsome, pen name Author Margaret Writes. I've always had a create mind for mystery and suspense, horror.  My writing began with a short story titled: Buried Secrets of the Scorned in 2016.  The TV writing journey began with a Shonda Rhimes "How to write for television" Masterclass in 2019 and a Nicki Micheaux Mastermind Masterclass for Film Producing in 2025.  As Chief Executive Officer of Civil Rights Diaries, LLC since 2020 and Margaret Writes, LLC since 2025, I contribute to producing innovative content creation and projects that blend storytelling, history, and culture. I serve as a co-creator, executive producer, and scriptwriter for "Civil Rights Diaries (Status: On Hold)," a groundbreaking TV series that bridges generations by exploring Black culture and its historical significance. My work demonstrates a commitment to creating engaging, educational, and culturally resonant content.

 

My passion for storytelling is currently reflected in projects like my suspense novel "Mistreated - What's Happening to Maria?", (Book-to-Screen project) and my dedication to developing inclusive narratives that entertain and inspire.
