The Writer's Block

Thursday, Bobbi and I hosted Heidi Gilbert (H. Schussman) for an hour of fun, conversation and good times, Heidi is an extraordinary writer and blogger and it was a true pleasure having her and her husband, Joe, in studio with us.As far as we are concerned, she is welcome back any time. And for her, Heidi, great job for your very first in studio interview!

Last Thursday, Bobbi and I hosted Joe Herrington, poet, yarn teller and author of the fabulous book, 'Tekoa'. We spent a wonderful hour with Joe and several times he had us in stitched with his stories. Give a listen, I am fairly certain you won't be disappointed.

This evening, Russ and I had a great evening with Troy Andrew Smith. Cowboy poet, cowboy, writer, screenwriter, actor, wrangler, (whew). An insightful and fun hour. Troy is the real deal when it comes to everything cowboy. Thanks a billion, Troy.

This evening, Russ and I had a hoot talking with Henry Parke and John Hegenberger. John's latest book, "Spyfall" is a great romp through Hollywood and Europe in the late 50's. It's no secret the hero's name is Stan Wade, could just as easily been Sam Spade, although i think that one is taken. Thanks to John and Henry for giving us another great evening of conversation.

Thursday, Bobbi and Jim hosted a wonderful cowboy poet, performance artist and equestrian trainer, Andria Kidd and her producer for Afirm Records, Christine Law. Not only is Christine a bang-up producer but, a musician in her own right and, an avid breeder of Frisian horses. The hour flew by and we talked about and over many subjects, both women being extremely intelligent and interesting.

This Thursday, Bobbi and I hosted Gary Phillips, writer, screenwriter, pulp writer, business man and extraordinary gentleman on our show. It was, to say the least, interesting, informative, lively, educational and just downright fun. Gary is a master storyteller with an incredible eye for detail and story substance. Along with Gary, our friend, Henry Parke joined us for the last few moments to give us a heads up on the western scene around LA, talked about a new western being shot in Simi Valley and what he is up to. Henry will be joining us every other Thursday for a brief visit, about his western blog.

Thursday, Russ and I interviewed author D.K. Christi. her book, "Ghost Orchid" is being reissued October 31st and she was eager to talk about it. Not knowing anything about orchids, Russ and I were astounded at her knowledge of the Ghost Orchid, it's mysticism, history and beliefs. In all a fun conversation and extremely informative. Incidently, "Ghost Orchid" is a great read!

Bobbi and I hosted writer Claire Fullerton to the Writer's Block. Claire is an outstanding writer and is welcome here whenever she wants to come back. Her ideas are insightful and well thought out, and her sense of humor is great and we laughed a good deal of the show. Give the podcast a listen, it's a lot of fun.

This evening we had Pamela Malz on with us for a captivating hour of conversation and a lot of information never previously discussed on The Writer's Block. Pam is intelligent and a load of fun to talk to, with a definite invite to return any time.

Thursday, Bobbi and Jim hosted western singer/songwriter, author and all around great guy, Jim Jones to the program. The studio was lively as we tackled about every subject but politics and religion (which we will never do anyway). Jim is a great guest and a lot of fun to spend an hour with.
