This Thursday we hosted Henry Parke. Henry is a screenwriter,budding columnist and the writer of Henry's Western Roundup, a weekly blog to keep interested parties up to date on what's going on in the western community. And, a surprise call in by C. Courtney Joyner which has collaborated with Henry on a recent commentary or two,, or three. In all it was a fun night and we look forward to having Henry back with us.

This Thursday, Russ and i interviewed in studio a prolific and somewhat erstwhile author of Science Fiction, Westerns and Western Science Fiction, Ed Erdelac. Ed's books are full of wonderment not normally found in other novels of this genre, if there are others of this genre. His Merkabah Rider series follows the trail of a Hasidic gunfighter with no name that travels the west in search of a renegade teacher that destroyed his mystic Jewish order. A great read along with all of Ed's other creations.

This Thursday, Bobbi and I welcomed Science Fiction writer Todd Embry to the Writer's Block. We had a fascinating conversation with Todd about his myriad professions ultimately driving him to get serious about writing, and writing Science Fiction in particular. Todd is also a short story author and a poet...oh yea, he's also a graduate with honors from Le Cordon Bleu Academe'. An interesting fellow and one we will not soon forget. Thanks Todd!

This Thursday we welcomed John Bergstrom, western musician and singer songwriter into the studio for an hour of western music, songwriting insight, history and just a great conversation all around.

This Thursday, we welcomed Dr. Charlotte Laws into the studio for an hour of fascinating fun conversation. Not only is Charlotte educated and smart, she's also fun, sassy and full of life. We thoroughly enjoyed having Charlotte with us and maybe next time, I won't screw up the board or forget to go on the air...geez...

The Writer's Block interviewed the shows creator and host, Jim Christina. We spent time chatting about writing, character development and writing music. The hopur flew by land Jim's wife, Gerry joined in the festivities along with Bobbi's husband, Jim, continuing to hold up the wall.

This Thursday we hosted longtime friend, actor, author, producer and western historian, Peter Sherayko to the Writer's Block. Peter is full of ideas for writing, authenticity in western movies and life in general. It was a great hour, full of fun and interesting conversation.

This Thursday, Bobbi and I spent a delightful hour with Janet Squires. We chatted about her background, what she's working on now, her accomplishments, her ideas on writing and writers. She will be welcome back anytime she wants to come.

Court Joyner. Screen writer, novelist, western heritage writer, magazine writer and all around good guy. We spoke about what got Court into writing as a profession, current projects and what direction he is going now. Good fun evening.

Last evening was spent with author J.R. Sanders. We chatted about his work, his new book, his thoughts on publishing, writing, Facebook and many more spects of the writing game. An enjoyable evening and quite informative to both Bobbi and myself. Thanks JR for a great evening.
