The Writer's Block

Last evening's interviews with playwright Chelsea Hickman and writer, producer...well you know, Michael Druxman was informative, fun and chock full of nuts! It's what the Writer's Block is all about!

Bobbi's and my conversation this Thursday with singer/songwriter Doug Figgs was extremely interesting. Not only does Doug work long hours every day as a farrier (horse shoer) but also finds time to write, produce and perform in award winning albums and songs within the Western Genre of music. A remarkable man and a very fun interview.!

Our conversation with writer, Travis Norwood last evening was an experience into the unknown. Travis is a very gifted storyteller, and one that will go a long way in the Sci-Fi world...remember...shameless self promotion!!!

Thursday's interview and discussion with writer, Peggy Wheeler was fun, informative and and a little bit insane. Her book, The Raven's Daughter, is garnering terrific reviews and rightly so.

Thursday's visit with writer Eliot Parker was fun, informative and highly educational. Eliot is an extremely intelligent and well spoken author easily displayed by his writing and presentation of his written materials. Eliot is welcome back to the Writer's Block any time he has something new to share.

Bobbi's and my interview with writer, Ona Russell last evening was fascinating to say the least. She is quite a story teller and her new book, Rule of Capture was certainly no slouch!

This week guest host, Richard Paolinelli and me interviewed author and child advocate, Bracha Goetz. Bracha is a Harvard graduate and a doctor, yet opts to help children to realize their potential using children's book platform. We had a great conversation with her indeed.

This week, the Writer’s Block hosted writer Kathleen Rodgers. This is Kathleen’s second visit to the show and as before, she lent a great time and valid, thoughtful conversation to Russ and me. We sincerely hope Kathleen returns as a guest on the Writer’s Block in the near future.

Last evening's festival with author Margaret Brownley and Western Musician, Almeda Bradshaw was a perfect example of what the Writer's Block is all about. Both women were super fun and quite informational. Almeda with her insights on women in music and Margaret with her writer's insight on women in the west and a woman's view of times of old. A great show, give a listen!

It's all about the creative process behind the songs of Utah based Mary Kaye Knapheus and stories of local storyteller Joe Herrington on tonight's show. Award winning singer/songwriter/performer Mary Kaye shares songs from her newest CD, "Ride A Wide Circle." Joe performs several of his original stories. The following week they performed together opening the Santa Clarita Cowboy Festival with an evening of music, poetry, and storytelling.
