Charles Bock was last on Book Talk for his debut novel, Beautiful Children, which won the 2009 Sue Kaufman Prize for First Fiction from the American Academy of Arts and Letters. His second novel was Alice and Oliver. Today, we're talking about his recent memoir, I Will Do Better: A Father's Memoir of Heartbreak, Parenting, and Love published by Harry N. Abrams, which is distributed by Hachette.
Charles Bock is honest from the beginning of his new memoir, “I Will Do Better”: He never wanted to be a dad. He was much more interested in pursuing his literary dreams than shepherding a child to adulthood. But his wife really wanted a baby. And he didn't think it would be right to tell her no. “In the book, I say: She wants to be a mom? OK. Let her. I'll continue with my ambitions. On weekends, I'll put on the Baby Bjorn, tell friends ‘we're parenting,' using that plural. That's what I thought I was going to do. I was going to put in my time, let [my wife] handle the heavy lifting.” But then Diana, Bock's wife, was diagnosed with an advanced form of leukemia when Lily was just six months old. She died a few days before Lily's third birthday. Bock had to step up.As he tells Kerri Miller on this week's Big Books and Bold Ideas, his new memoir “is about the emotional and physical journey, of this little girl with no mom who wants to go to the ball, and I have to grow up and be man enough to take her and handle it.” It's a conversation about parenting, about heartbreak, about maturing — and ultimately, about love. Guest: Charles Bock is the author of several books, including “Beautiful Children” and “Alice & Oliver.” His new memoir is “I Will Do Better.”Subscribe to Big Books and Bold Ideas with Kerri Miller on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, RSS or anywhere you get your podcasts.Subscribe to the Thread newsletter for the latest book and author news and must-read recommendations.

In December 2008, Lily Bock, the daughter of the novelist Charles Bock, was born. But Bock, the New York Times bestselling author of the novels Beautiful Children and Alice & Oliver, was a reluctant parent, tagging along for the ride of fatherhood, obsessed primarily with his dream of a writing career. However, when Lily was six months old, his wife, Diana, was diagnosed with a complex form of leukemia. Two and half years later, when all treatments and therapies had been exhausted, Bock found himself a widower—devastated, drowning in medical bills, and saddled with a daunting responsibility. He had to nurture Lily, and, somehow, maybe even heal himself. Bock's new memoir, I Will Do Better, is about this experience. It's a confessional about heartbreak, parenting, and, above all, his love for Lily Bock. And to discuss I Will Do Better, already named one of the best books of Fall by Oprah Daily and People, Charles is joined by the now 15 year-old Lila Bock in a memorably intimate conversation about the challenges and joys of single parenting in the 2020s. Charles Bock is the New York Times bestselling author of the novels Beautiful Children and Alice & Oliver, and a creative writing professor at New York University. The father of two daughters, he lives in New York City.Lily Bock is many things including the daughter of Charles & Diana BockNamed as one of the "100 most connected men" by GQ magazine, Andrew Keen is amongst the world's best known broadcasters and commentators.

Michael Ruff Live on Game Changers With Vicki Abelson In his first ever interweb interview, perhaps interview period, 3rd Zoom of his lifetime, and that includes 2 with his family, multiple Grammy-nominated producer and songwriter, BMI Award and Cable Ace Award winner, Michael Ruff, tried to be a little ruff, deflecting and avoiding answering questions about his past but ultimately, answering my questions he did. Even the really tough ones. And the password was FUN! I've had a bit of a run with bad boy musicians who are a tad unpredictable and contrarian- I love a good challenge. Well, I'm actually getting too old for that shit, but Michael's worth it. HIs story hasn't been told. Research for the show came up with a bio he'd written himself on his website, or had written for him, a few brief liner notes on a couple of videos, and 3 really short blogs, I mean really short. The end. No Wiki, no articles, no interviews for background. I was tightrope walking without a net of any kind for the first time myself and after getting over the initial shock of his response to a question being, “No, I don't wanna…” That's not an exact quote, fyi, I'm too fatigued to try to find the moment, at the moment, it's also the first time in 7 years I didn't stay up no matter how late and write liner notes, on the same night as the show, ever. Consider this a cherry breaking for both of us. Too harsh? For a man who values honesty seemingly above almost all else, except maybe love, I think he can take it.* *See his story about how he, with the help of his higher power to hear him tell it, saved and changed Snuffy's life for good. For someone who's never done a Zoom podcast, Michael had arguably the best sound and set up of any guest I've had the privilege to sit down with––pointing up how much work I have to do on my own deal. Also pointing up his greatness, what makes him a one-of-a-kind brilliant artist, worth everything and anything. He displayed that brilliance tinkling throughout and featured on his new, as yet unreleased, Nobody But You, his classic, I Love You More Than You'll Ever Know, my favorite, Wishing Well, and a taste of the brand new, Beautiful Children. *sigh* We talked about being born in Utah, Connecticut, Boston, Upstate New York, The Bitter End, The Flying Jib, At My Place, Hawaii, a bounty of musicians who populated them, playing with Rickie Lee Jones, MDing Chaka Khan, bringing in the Snuff, being brought into Laura Brannigan by the him, Eric Burdon, Clive Davis's pass, his Warner Brothers deal, Bonnie Raitt covering his Cry on My Shoulder on Nick of Time, self sabotage in work and in life, and the work to right that latter wrong. HIs massive love of his wife, his kids, his grandkid, his Island, its people, his music, faith, and his life. Michael's jazz… an improvisation…his artistry, his impromptu, in the moment, in his skin, funny, irreverent, genius… fun, complicated, incomprehensible for its difficulty, made to look easy, is the stuff that makes him a treasure I hope he gifts us more of in the days and years ahead. A short west coast tour in June with John Cruz approaches. Dates here: JohnCruz.com We'll be there with massive smiles on. My takeaway - underneath the self-assured confidence Michael is a man who cares very much about pleasing, with his art, his craft, his life––he gives his very best. Even when he tries to withhold, he shares without filter. I'm even more enamored now, even if I did have to work for it.

On Episode 29, the Speaker, Trainer and Sage, Eden Onwuka takes us on her journey through cancer from surviving to thriving and teaching women the lessons she has gleaned. She shares her life practices of resilience, gratitude and reading.Eden also expounds on boundaries as established values that guide us and help others to see us in our true authentic selves. As you practice healthy boundaries, you raise a vision board of your values. Realize, however, that you cannot control what someone else does or feels but you can communicate the direction and stay true to yourself.
