  • Riding the Subway without pants is a thing? ... Why??

    This has been a week, hasn't it? I had so much more to talk about but alas, I think listening to me for one hour is way too long as it is, I wouldn't dream of  pushing my luck any further. I had a hard time articulating my thoughts about the censorship that is happening - it's unbelievable to me that America has reached this point. Is this the beginning of the end for our Constitution? Book review is "Burden of Truth" by Robin James. Listen to the end for some interesting story ideas. Talk to you next week!

  • Cracker Jack Changes Name to Caucasian Jack

  • Distracted by Confirmation Hearings

    Ugh. I didn't get any prepping done for my NaNoWriMo project this week. Why? Because I spent a large part of my week watching Judge Barrett's confirmation hearing. But it was an eye-opening experience, listen why. I also review "Scorned" and "Bring Up the Bodies." Lastly, I update you on my personal life - bad teeth anyone?

  • Dear Character - Share Your Story

    This episode, I talk about encouraging my main character for my NaNoWriMo project to share her tragedy.

I read an excerpt from this week's book review, "Stories We Never Told" and offer my opinion and rating. Thanks for listening!
