Grenier, with her guests, hope to not only share their love of the written word, but also tips on writing, what makes a good book and much more. This weeks guest is Lisa S. Roberts, author of a 29-book adventure for children, middle school age. Back to the Basics with Aydan & Addy – “Leadership with Abraham Lincoln” (Tate Publishing) kicks off this series, which is both historical and magical, with leadership mentor, President Abraham Lincoln. The series features best friends, Aydan and Addy, being led by a different Spiritual Mentor in each magical adventure. Tremendous research has gone into each book, with Roberts studying the actual lives and historical legacy of the “spirit mentors” in each book. “There are so many challenges we face in America today, and life in general,” the author says. “I thought for a long time about the importance of getting back to basics and teaching some fundamental values to children through a series of fun and adventurous stories.” The character Aydan is modeled after Roberts’ own young grandson and Addy is named for the granddaughter of a family friend.

On this week's episode of The Paranormal Hour, hosts Willow Cross and Tracee Ford welcome Isobelle Cate to the show.  Ms. Cate is an author and moonlights as a paranormal investigator.  This is sure to be a spooky show!  Tune in at 8 PM EST, 9 PM Central, and 10 PM PST.  The phone lines and chat room will be open for your calls and questions.   Guest Bio: Isobelle Cate is a woman who wears different masks. Mother-writer, wife-professional, scholar-novelist. Currently living in Manchester, she has been drawn to the little known, the secret stories, about the people and the nations: the English, the Irish, the Scots, the Welsh, and those who are now part of these nations whatever their origins. Her vision and passion are fuelled by her interest and background in history and paradoxically, shaped by growing up in a clan steeped in lore, loyalty, and legend. Isobelle is intrigued by forces that simmer beneath the surface of these cultures, the hidden passions, unsaid desires, and yearnings unfulfilled.
