Sarah Stuart Interview Is FINALLY up!

Today I interviewed Sarah Stuart, a soon-to-be author and practitioner/teacher of NLP, Zen, faith healing (as in the healing of one’s faith, not the laying on of hands stuff), emotional well being, and unbeliever in the concept of limits (here here!), and an all around fun and interesting person to be around. Listen to what …

Characters Of Maldene: Quickfoot And Blag-ak

My Interview With Monica Brinkman

Today I spoke with Monica Brinkman, author of “The Turn Of The Karmic Wheel”. We talked about her book, about writing, about passion, and then she read an excerpt from her novel, followed by some Q and A with the attendees that was at least as much fun as the interview itself. So go to …

My Guest Spot on La Talk Radio

Hey, I was just on LATalkradio.com for the show Sam In the Morning. Even better, the co-host Bridgetta is a dyed-in-the-wool fantasy and SF fan (not too common for models). I had a blast and now you can hear the entire show linked straight to the Interviews Page. I come in about 9 minutes in …
