After moving back to the U.S. I became so busy with work and family I had to tell my podcast producer Carol Azams that I sadly didn't have time to make another season of The Book Show for her network/app Diversity TV...
But all that has changed! I had a temporary dip in hours as I was changing stores (to move to one with better and more in-depth retail management training) so I began working on new material for our podcast, so... expect new episodes, coming your way in 2021! These will feature new books and a chord of inspiration that runs throughout the season to uplift spirits and inspire people with dreams and goals. It will also feature local backgrounds as all will be filmed outside here in the wilds of rural Arkansas, U.S.

My new podcast, written and presented by me and executive-produced by Carol Azams, has begun airing!
Couldn't be more excited; the range of books is diverse, nonfiction, fiction, and a little bit of poetry. Energy and global warming opinions, garment workers, geo-politics in Africa, how to start grassroots activism or use LinkedIn to boost your career prospects and business contacts, Hemingway (of course!), and feminist (and largely forgotten) poet Ella Wheeler Wilcox all take centre stage in this Irish production! Check it out: 'The Book Show' on Diversity Television (Ireland). My colleague and friend Carol Azams is at it again; starting her own Diversity TV network (and roped me into writing and presenting a show for it, which I loved doing!)
Please check it out and download the app on Google Play! 'The Book Show' and more on DTV. A wonderful writer and editor friend of mine here in Ireland has a new project in the works to have writers interview writers. I've already made a demo interview with a writer friend of mine who still lives in the US... still working away and will share to this site whenever it's available! Below is a quick promo clip I shot for her (unedited). Good things are coming in 2020! |
