  • Guess What? I'm Back!

    Almost two years ago, I ended the last episode of this podcast with "See you soon" and I just walked away. I said, "Nope, need some me time" and I allowed my emotions to control me as I did my own thing. Well today I am back and the podcast is back and better than ever!


    Pardon the uncensored nature of the episode, I did a "word vomit" session and just spewed everything.

  • Sensational Chat with Sharon Arsego
    Sharon Arsego is a lifelong Connecticut resident whose creativity, wit and appreciation for music were deeply fostered by an expressive Italian father and a more reserved, Czechoslovakian mother, among other artists and musicians in her family. Like many authors, Sharon started writing at a young age and, despite some stops and starts in life, continues to write, and now draw, as well. It has long been her dream to publish her work. Cadence is not only her debut book, but also the first from her private label, Swirl Ink Publications, named as a nod to the style of drawing her mother used to keep her occupied as a child. She considers herself fortunate for the experiences and mentoring provided to her over the years, including earning her B.A. in English Studies from St. Joseph College in West Hartford, CT. Sharon currently has a career with the City of Bristol, CT where she resides with her beloved feline companion, Big Mitts Mackenzie, aka Mack.
     
    Previous writing collaborations include: CD Release articles for Musician Robert C. Fullerton, Freelance Writer for CT Valley Post, Sales and Promotions at FM 97.3 WZBG, Founding of Team Teal and Warm Our Warriors (in memoriam blanket projects to honor her late parents), Newsletter Editor and Event Volunteer for Cat Tales feline rescue, and during Covid, The Sketchbook Project originally based in NYC.
     
    Cadence teaser:
    If you've ever spent time lakeside or in the deep woods, escaped to the sea or a nearby pond, spent time sprawled out in the grass or watched critters in their natural habitat, you're going to love the encompassing nature theme that runs through Cadence. Dragonflies, weeping willows, shipwrecks and all sorts are waiting for you between the pages of this debut collection spanning thirty years and over seventy poems by Connecticut resident, Sharon Arsego, herself a lifetime observer of wildlife and lover of the four signature seasons in the Nutmeg state. Cadence's easy to read style with a side of insight and sprinkling of humor will make you feel welcome, whether hearing the word "poetry" usually makes you cringe a little or jump for joy a lot. Take Cadence into your hands and see which of her poems also find room in your heart!

  • “Netherland Nuances with Lian Van Berkel”
    Lian van Berkel was born in the Netherlands in 1986. From the moment she was able to read and write, she has done both these things passionately. She loved nothing better at school than the opportunity to write stories. She wrote her first picture books around age eight (fan fiction of the Care Bears) and her first novel at age twelve (a horror story about a teacher who mutilated his pupils with a chainsaw; co-authored with her best friend, Joyce).
    After her A-levels, Lian went on to university to study English language and culture, as well as linguistics. She obtained a master’s degree in both and a PhD in linguistics. She has also worked as a teacher and postdoctoral researcher at two universities.
    Lian is currently on disability, due to having ME (aka Chronic Fatigue Syndrome). She still tries to paint, crochet, and draw as much as she can, and she loves to visit the library when she has the energy to do so. 
    Links to my written works are on my website: lianvanberkel.nl (currently only available in Dutch)
    Also: my cat’s diary is in a Facebook group (most posts are in Dutch, though, and facebook’s translations aren’t perfect): “Diva’s dagboek: het tragische leven van een verwaarloosde poes” (Diva’s diary: the tragic life of a neglected pussycat).

  • “The Portal To Aardon” by Matthew J. Stott
    For the season three opener of the AuthorOnWheels podcast, we were blessed to invite local author Matthew J Stott into the studio to discuss his upcoming book “The Portal To Aardon” Originally from the Panhandle of Florida, Matthew J. Stott has had a love for writing fiction for as long as he can remember, so naturally he aspired to be an author. He now travels and lives all over the world with his wife, twin son and daughter, and his sweet pug, Lily. As an avid fan of works such as Harry Potter, Star Wars, Marvel, and Game of Thrones, Matthew's passion for writing is telling fantastical stories with intriguing characters, compelling action, and vast amounts of magic. When not indulging in his writing, Matthew can be found reading, playing video games, exploring with friends, or relaxing at home watching his favorite TV shows with his family.
