Show Notes Ep 122 : Jim Hartsell, Author interview ** Co-hosts: Cheryl McNeil Fisher and Kathy King** We know you will enjoy this entertaining and informative interview with author Jim Hartsell. Jim writes a series of books for adults called the Boone series. He also has a group of books for children. Tune in to hear us discuss a variety of topics including his books, diversity issues, marketing, independent publishing, and the writing craft. We know you will be pleased with this episode. About Jim Hartsell Like most of us, there are many descriptors that apply to me: husband, father, grandfather, voracious reader, and average hammer dulcimer player are a few of them. I also write, concentrating on Southern fiction and children's books. I have deep roots in East Tennessee; I've always lived here, and the farm my sister and I currently own has been in our family for five generations. My immediate family consists of my wife of 43 years, my two children, their spouses, and six grandchildren. My wife and I share our home on House Mountain with a cat and two shelter dogs. My professional career was in education, working with teens in a variety of settings. The three decades I spent with teens who have been characterized by society as losers at best and dangerous at worst taught me much about resilience, strength, and bravery, and helped form the concept of the main character in the Boone series. I have a beautiful family, all the necessities of life plus a few luxuries, a fine circle of friends, and time to write books, play music, and enjoy the moments as they present themselves one by one. By any measure that matters to me, I am a very wealthy man. Jim Hartsell Contact info: website: housemountainviews.com Contains links to purchase books and listing of shows and signings email: jim@housemountainviews.com podcast: housemountainviews.podbean.com Contains my reading of “Pushing Back,” the first book in the Boone series, and “Journey,” a novella (not for the easily offended) Youtube: youtube.com/@housemountainviews9898 Contains videos of my first four children's books as well as the video trailer for the Boone series Writing Opportunities Writing prompts, contests, Open Mic events, and more from Writing Works Wonders!!

Show Notes episode 102 Guest author, Peter Abrahams, a.k.a. Spencer Quinn. Co-hosts: Cheryl McNeil Fisher and Kathy King In this fast-paced episode, best selling author, Peter Abrahams aka Spencer Quinn  is our guest on Writing Works Wonders . Don't miss the opportunity to enjoy the author of the chat and Bernie series in addition to many other standalone books.   Anyone who can write with a dog as a narrator, is sure to provide a fun and informative interview for readers and writers alike. insights on writing, alternate narration methods, and plenty of creativity and inspiration included in this episode!   About Peter Abrahams aka Spencer Quinn   As a boy, I read voraciously, almost anything I could get my hands on, but I enjoyed adventure stories the most. I wasn't one of those unhappy kids who loses himself in books. I was a pretty happy kid who did it. We had a summer cottage in Quebec. My grandmother would come up on weekends, bringing me a kind of popcorn I liked and a stack of books. There would be famous ones, like Treasure Island, and not-so-famous ones, like Red Pete the Ruthless. I can still recall the last scene of that one – Red Pete, buried up to the neck between the high and low tide lines, surrounded by his stolen gold, waves lapping closer.    Can't you just hear the hiss of the bubbles?     I was also interested in words themselves. Probably like you, I hated to stop reading if I thought I'd pretty much understood a new word from the context, but some persnickety thing in me usually insisted I look it up. (“Persnickety,” for example, seems to derive from the Scots dialect. Nice to find out I've got some Scot in me, probably a surprise to my family.)     I began by writing stand-alones, meaning non-series novels – such as Lights Out, The Fan (filmed by Tony Scott, with a cast including Robert De Niro), Oblivion, and End of Story. It was during this period that Stephen King – uh-oh! I just came close to quoting from my own reviews. Wasn't I brought up better than that?   A little later, I also started writing for younger readers, beginning with the Echo Falls series, centered around thirteen-year old Ingrid Levin-Hill. I took advantage of having four kids of my own – all that raw material! – plus the fact that, yes, I'd once been thirteen myself. Speaking of family – the most important thing in my life – my wife and children are the only people who read my books while they're being written. I put each new chapter on the kitchen table, and any family member so inclined can read, comment, and even revise. No one holds back! The holding back gene didn't catch on here.     I live on Cape Cod with my wife – all the kids up and grown now – and dogs Audrey and Pearl. Dogs are a big part of our life and there's no way I could have written Chet and Bernie without them. Audrey and Pearl are the kind of researchers writers dream of, showing up every day and working for treats.

Show Notes Episode 98 Guest Author, Margaret Mizushima Co-hosts: Cheryl McNeil Fisher and Kathy King What a special treat! An exciting interview with Margaret Mizushima! This accomplished author of the Timber Creek K9 mysteries series brings insight, laughter and encouragement to writers of all levels. Enjoy this episode as readers and writers ask questions and learn about what inspires her and how she has developed her craft of writing over her years of success. About Margaret Mizushima Margaret Mizushima is the author of the award-winning and internationally published Timber Creek K-9 Mysteries. Active within the writing community, Margaret serves as past president for the Rocky Mountain Chapter of Mystery Writers of America, was elected the 2019 Writer of the Year by Rocky Mountain Fiction Writers, and is also a member of Northern Colorado Writers, Sisters in Crime, and Women Writing the West. She and her husband recently moved from their home in Colorado to the Pacific Northwest. Margaret was born in Kansas and grew up on cattle ranches in Texas and Colorado. Her childhood summers were spent either on horseback herding cows or nestled in the crook of a tree reading a library book.. Due to volunteer experiences in high school, she pursued a degree in Speech Pathology, which she received from Colorado State University after completing her undergraduate degree at the University of Northern Colorado. Later, she married a veterinarian, and they have two daughters. Margaret worked as a speech therapist in an acute care hospital before establishing her own agency. After she sold her company, she decided to study the art and craft of fiction writing. What a wondrous world this opened up for me. Margaret says, “Whereas before, I'd been driven by the science of speech, language, and communication disorders, I could now focus on artistic creativity with language. I could also use my years of experience working with people to create characters that readers seemed to enjoy. Since I'm an avid crime fiction reader and crime documentary watcher, mystery writing seemed like the way to go.” In addition to reading, Margaret enjoys yoga and hiking in the Colorado high country.

Show Notes episode 96, cast author and poet, Victoria Zigler Co-hosts: Cheryl McNeil Fisher and Kathy King Zoomng in from Wales, we have a a very special guest author interview, Victoria Zigler. An ACB member, Tori will discuss her many short stories, books, and poetry writing, which span children's stories, fantasy, science fiction and more. Toi understands the“pesky“ issues of editing or writing work, but she also has experienced loss of sight across her lifetime. Join us as we discuss her work, as well as the approaches and strategies she uses for success. Based on her exciting life, we know this will be an informative and inspirational event! We look forward to you participating with us and bringing your questions. About Victoria Zigler “Tori” (information adapted from her website) Tori says, “I'm a blind vegan poet and children's author, who was born and raised in the shadow of the Black Mountains of Wales, UK, spent some time living in Alberta, Canada, and Hastings, England, UK – returning to Wales in between. “Despite spending far too much time in hospital, and eventually losing my sight to Congenital Glaucoma, I've been writing since I was old enough to know how, with no plans to stop any time soon. I have a long list of publications to my name, including several poetry collections, **manny children's stories, a story in the sci-fi and fantasy anthology Wyrd Worlds II, three poems in the Poetry Treasures anthology, and a poem in the Stand Together charity anthology. “Vegan due to both a love for animals and dairy allergy, as well as an Eclectic Pagan, I would describe myself as a combination of Hermione Granger and Luna Lovegood from the Harry Potter books: Hermione's thirst for knowledge and love of books, combined with Luna's wandering mind and alternative way of looking at the world. I have a wide variety of interests, designed to exercise both the creative and logical sides of my brain, which I dabble in at random depending on what I feel like doing at any given time, and am most likely to be found playing with my petkids, involved in calls with the ACB Community, curled up somewhere with a cup of tea and a book, working on some kind of craft project, or trying to keep one step ahead of those pesky typo fairies while writing my own books.” Tori is now back to living in Wales, along with my Canadian husband, Kelly, and our petkids – a West Highland White Terrier named Lilie, a Cavapoo named Logan, and a Hermann's Tortoise named Artemis. Her books are available at Amazon, Barnes & Noble and smashwords.
