On this special extended episode of AuthorView, the acclaimed Artist-Teacher-Musician Roderick Phipps-Kettlewell interviews musicologist Daniel E. Freeman, who specializes in European art music of the eighteenth century, about his book Mozart in Prague.

Together they discuss how Mozart was dismissed in Vienna as a composer of complicated music with little popular appeal, and finding recognition for his talents in Prague, likely due to the exceptional musical literacy of the general population.

I'm joined on this episode by Mona Gustafson, author of the multi-layered, multi-generational story of her family: My Father's House: Remembering My Swedish American Family. She's bright, inquisitive, an emeritus professor, and a therapist.

She's also the editor of This Sucks!: I Want to Live. After receiving a terminal diagnosis, Nick Spooner began documenting his thoughts and emotions on Facebook where his voice continued for two months until his last entry—"It sucks."

In the very first episode of AuthorView, I talk with Gina Castillo about her recently published book with Calumet Editions, Sangre Cove. She's a mother, school teacher, a Texan native, and a delightful human being.

The main heroine, Maria, discovers she has supernatural abilities leading her on a path of self-discovery when caught between a centuries old feud between the Tonkawa and Apache tribes. With an alpha-controlled wolfpack and an eagle as protectors, Maria will discover her ultimate role as the last healer of her tribe.
