Romantasy & Animation w/Crystal Cabrae

Author and animator Crystal Cabrae is so incredibly talented and fun to chat with! I was thrilled to get to explore her Storyteller Planet and her world of ideas. Her website offers lots of opportunities for everyone to explore and find their creative outlet. As for her writing, her romantasy stories offer rich characters that you'll remember for a long time. Most of all, Crystal is pure sunshine and I'm so grateful to have met her.

Sci-Fi with Nicholas Crabtree

Author Nicholas Crabtree was raised in England, has lived all over the US, and has made his mark as a science fiction writer with some amazing scenarios and memorable characters. His stories are born from a variety of life experiences that sparked his creativity and compelled him to spend hours at this desk writing. I had a great time chatting with him about his writing process and about the creation of his story ideas.

Mother's Day with Easton and Camden

What is that old adage in Hollywood, never work with kids and animals? Despite these words of wisdom, this week, I'm featuring my two grandsons, ages 4 and 2, as I try to find out more about their mom through their eyes, to include her joy of drinking wine and her potential comparison to Marvel villain Thanos. There is some definite silliness, but there are some gem moments as well. I hope you enjoy this little view into their world. Wishing everyone a Happy Mother's Day! Thanks for listening!
