Join me as I sit down with Robert Smith, a retired Episcopal priest who has taken a fascinating journey from the clergy to the construction industry and now to the world of fiction writing. With a background in creative writing and a lifelong passion for mysteries, Robert has embraced writing cozy mystery novels with the help of AI technology. Our conversation covers his unique transition and his deep commitment to leaving a meaningful legacy through his stories. Discover how Robert, inspired by his family and life experiences, has crafted a strong, relatable female protagonist named Isabel, who reflects his insights on personal growth and the importance of relationships.

In our discussion, we also explore the intriguing pen name Nora Bardin, chosen by a former parochial minister who channels their diverse background into cozy mysteries. Drawing inspiration from life experiences and countless interactions, this author offers readers a positive and dignified escape from a world often filled with negativity. Their books, including "Murder at Maplewood Inn" and "Secrets of the Lighthouse," promise intriguing elements like a psychic cat and science fiction-like plasma. Listen in as Robert shares his journey of embracing authenticity through writing, emphasizing self-awareness and the sharing of one's unique gifts with the world.
