Extra Ordinary true stories deserve to be shared.

I’m Rebecca J Hogue, a writer, story director, and editor drawn to personal journeys, unconventional lives, and the extraordinary stories found in everyday people.

I help people recognize the stories within themselves, then I help shape those pieces into book-length and feature-length narratives.

Current Projects

Book

I’m writing a book about an unconventional bicycle journey across Canada.

Documentary

I’m helping bring Always Ask for Help to the screen—a documentary about Arnie Stewart, a Canadian hero who inspired thousands of children and adults not to be afraid to ask for help.

Podcast

I’m launching the second season of my podcast, Definitely Not Famous, rebranded as More Extra than Ordinary, where I interview memoirists about their books.

Video Shorts

I’m playing with the short-form video to tell stories visually.
