    Garrett Stack and "The Duke of Ash Avenue" on the Sunbury Press Books Show!

    in Books

    Elbridge Corvallis finds himself in an unenviable position. About to start his professional hockey career, "Elby" is called home to Lowland, Pennsylvania, due to his mother's death. A car accident then keeps him home, and Elby has to somehow heal, and figure out how to get out of a gritty, dying steel town.
    Elby must also contend with his father's slide into madness, a pervy landlord, a revenge-minded physical therapist, and also the "Duke of Ash Avenue," a mysterious character who wants to secede and return the town to British rule. The darkly humorous situation and the strange characters that surround him leave Elby to consider his own place in the world, and whether Lowland really has anything for him?
    Garrett Stack brings his first novel, "The Duke of Ash Avenue" to the Catamount Press and the Sunbury Press Book Show. A poet and author of short fiction, Stack's work has appeared in several literary magazines. "Yeoman's Work," a collection of his poetry came out in 2020 on Bottom Dog Press. He holds degrees from Indiana University, the University of San Diego and Carnegie Mellon University. You can find out more about Garrett on his website.

    Jackie Mott the author of "Believe all things are possible" joins me here

    in Books

    Youtube Version   https://youtu.be/Ij-53dJRJl4
    https://jackiemott.com Jackie Mott is a powerhouse speaker and coach whose true brilliance lies in her ability to talk about difficult subjects using her own unique brand of wisdom, vulnerability, and humor, and she lives from her belief that “Life doesn’t have to be so damn serious!” Jackie’s coaching and speaking business was born after she lost her sister in a tragic car accident. She thought she had it all. A solid marriage, a happy family, friends she loved, a thriving accounting practice, a comfortable home, and two big silly dogs. What more could a person want? It took the shock of losing her sister to help Jackie see that although she had everything a person is supposed to desire, she was desperately unhappy. She was working too hard for not enough money, was sacrificing her health, and was working to build a life and a future with a partner she loved deeply but who was no longer a good fit for her. Over the next several years, she became a seeker. She took classes and workshops and worked on healing herself. Eventually, she began speaking about her experience and the process of working through her grief, and she learned that she had a unique perspective that seemed to help others. She started running workshops and classes of her own and working with small groups of women, teaching them what she’d learned. Jackie finally hit rock bottom when her marriage of over 20 years ended suddenly and without warning.

    in Books

    Eye Contact Over Truk with Stephanie Woodman
    The idea for Eye Contact Over Truk came to Stephanie in 1996 during a scuba trip to Truk Lagoon. She put the project on pause during her career and finished it in earnest after her retirement in 2021. With the additional two decades of life experience, her writing transformed to explore themes of perseverance, forgiveness, grief, loss, life, love, and adventure.
    Eye Contact Over Truk is a heartrending work of historical fiction. If you like nuanced characters, emotional journeys, and surreal backdrops, then you’ll love Stephanie Woodman’s thought-provoking exploration of the past. 
    Stephanie Woodman is an avid collector of experiences and a perpetual student of life. Despite her analytical background with a long engineering career and a short tenure as a high school math teacher, Stephanie has a powerful creative side which has manifested itself in her debut novel, Eye Contact Over Truk.

    Part 1: Close Up Radio Welcomes Back Author Bob Danna of My Curious Life

    in Books

    Las Vegas, NV – Bob Danna is the author of the book, My Curious Life: If My Grandkids Ask About Me, Tell Them This. Released on April 8th, 2024, it serves as Bob’s memoir and covers more than 70 years of his life growing up in the 1950’s and 1960’s. He describes his interesting career path as a physicist, a naval officer, an engineer, and a business leader.
    Starting from raw notes, his memoir offers his inside observations on his life experiences. Originally intending to write this for his grandkids as a personal account of life as a Baby Boomer, he shifted his focus into a perspective of curiosity, love of everything STEM, skepticism, and secular humanism.
    Following Bob’s original conversation with Doug Llewelyn on August 21st, a new two-part radio series beginning on October 23rd, will focus specifically on curiosity: how he has applied it to his own life and the world in which he lives and how others can do the same. Bob largely attributes his passion with curiosity to what he calls the Seed Years from 1965 to 1975.
    Bob’s Part 2, show, airing October 30th, will speak to those of you who are part of Generation Z (Gen Z), generally defined as those born between 1997 and 2012.
    “Gen Z are often curious young adults similar to how the Boomers were in the sixties,” Bob observes.
    “What we need to be doing is investing in the next generations,” concludes Bob. “The seeds we sow will determine the future of our country and the world at large.”
    For more information, please visit https://mycuriouslife.net/.
    You may purchase Bob’s book on Amazon.
