Guest host, Tina Hogan Grant's guest today on the Online for Authors podcast is Adele Royce, author of the book Summer's Blood. Adele holds a B.A. in English from Arizona State University, where she graduated magna cum laude. Her published Hnovels include Camera Ready, Princess Smile, and For Position Only, which was a BookLife by Publisher's Weekly Editor's Pick. An advertising and PR executive, Adele spent most of her career on the Las Vegas Strip, an experience that gave color to her novel, Summer's Blood.   She is currently working on the sequel to Summer's Blood featuring the next generation of the Keller/Van Ness family, as well as Deadly Sins, a collection of short stories.   Adele owns a marketing consulting firm in San Diego, California, where she resides with her husband, Marty and their two cats, Bosco and Sesame.   In her book review, Tina stated that Summer's Blood, set in the heart of Las Vegas where lies and deceit are plentiful, is a fast-paced thriller with many twists, turns, and surprises that I didn't see coming. As the story unfolded, I had so many questions, and that is what kept me turning the pages.   Craig was living the perfect life and it all suddenly changed after his father's funeral. With his life spiraling out of control, his love for his wife and children shines through the pages as he finds himself separated from them against his will. I found this story engaging, well-written, and enjoyable. This is a new author to me who I highly recommend.   Subscribe to Online for Authors to learn about more great books! https://www.youtube.com/@onlineforauthors?sub_confirmation=1   Join the Novels N Latte Book Club community to discuss this and other books with like-minded readers: https://www.facebook.com/groups/3576519880426290   You can follow Author Adele Royce Website: https://adeleroyce.com/ FB: @AdeleRoyceAuthor X: @Adele_Royce IG: adele_royce_author   Purchase Summer's Blood on Amazon: Paperback: https://amzn.to/41gsknU Ebook: https://amzn.to/49954KN   Teri M Brown, Author and Podcast Host: https://www.terimbrown.com FB: @TeriMBrownAuthor IG: @terimbrown_author X: @terimbrown1   #adeleroyce #summersblood #thriller #terimbrownauthor #authorpodcast #onlineforauthors #characterdriven #researchjunkie #awardwinningauthor #podcasthost #podcast #readerpodcast #bookpodcast #writerpodcast #author #books #goodreads #bookclub #fiction #writer #bookreview *As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.

Seizing opportunity is essential to getting ahead in media and entertainment. It is not a passive, I-think-I'll-wait-until-it-comes-to-me kind of a business.

In this inspiring episode of Shark Theory, the host Baylor Barbee touches upon the fleeting nature of time and the importance of taking action towards our dreams without delay. As we step into March, Baylor shares a personal story of running the Las Vegas marathon and the insights he gleaned about leadership and self-perception. Baylor likens the momentary push to improve running form when one spots a marathon photographer to the way we often present ourselves when we feel observed. He draws a parallel between this phenomenon and our behaviors as leaders, suggesting that genuine leadership means consistently being the best version of ourselves, irrespective of whether someone is watching. Baylor emphasizes that actions must support our words, as our behavior influences those who look up to us, even when we think no one is paying attention. Key Takeaways: Time is precious: Act now towards your dreams to make the most of your time, and take advantage of the present. Consistent leadership: True leadership is constant and does not waver depending on who is watching. Integrity: Your actions in private should align with your public persona to achieve authentic success. Influence by example: As a leader, your actions, whether seen or unseen, have an impact on your followers. Closing the performance gap: Work towards minimizing the difference between your best self and your everyday self for optimal results. Notable Quotes: "In life, there is always somebody watching. There's always somebody watching." "Your word means something because your actions back it up." "What are we and who are we whenever we believe that nobody's watching?" "What if no matter what was happening, you operated with confidence? What if you operated with intentional action?" "You have to minimize that gap between who you try to show yourself as and who you really are."

This episode of Camera Ready & Abel is brought to you by the phrase Redefining Success, a personal, perennial favorite of mine. The Berkeley Wellbeing Institute defines success as: reaching your goals, learning something new or overcoming fear. If that's what success is, why don't we all feel massively successful? My guest for this episode, Leila Sbitani, is a beloved TV host, media coach and teacher with one of the best workshops in New York City (I highly recommend). Her list of credits is a mile long. Highlights include: Entertainment Tonight, Full Frontal Fashion, FYE for E! and most recently Sit Down With the Stars for Regal Cinemas. Leila says success happened for her when she "had to get rid of that kind of rigid career plan that I had for myself and realize that if I would just let go of that and open myself up to unexpected opportunities, wonderful things can happen.”  She then had to dig deep and redefine success for herself when a cousin, at a family gathering, turned to her and said, "oh, it never really happened for you did it?" Her cousin was equating fame with success, that because Leila wasn't a household name she hadn't "made it." This is a false narrative. Fame does not equal success. Nor do followers and likes.  If you are making a living as a performer - television host, presenter, actor, voice artist etc - you are successful.  Celebrate your wins.  Learn more about Leila and her classes + private coaching (virtual and in person) at https://www.leilasbitani.com/media-training and follow @leilasbitani on all platforms.

I've wanted to explore the word permission ever since Marki Costello asked this most relevant question on her episode of Camera Ready and Abel: Are you prepared to walk in the room and kick ass? Why permission? Because after you explore all the ways to prepare to kick ass like getting your talking points and marketing assets together, plus a cute outfit and flattering makeup, the salient question is: Do you give yourself permission to walk in the room and kick ass? Permission means to grant authorization or to give formal consent and it's key to your preparation. Depending on where and when you grew up, your gender, ethnicity, and lived experience, your gremlin may be popping up to shut you down. No one can give you permission to carpe your diem except you.  Repeat after me: I give myself permission to walk in the room and kick ass! If it helps, remind yourself when you kick ass you're sharing your gifts - and that's helpful. You're providing something valuable that your audience needs. Hold onto that. Figure out the steps you need to take in order to prepare, and then give yourself permission to go after what you want.

This episode is brought to you by the phrase, How to Land Your Dream Job. It's a rebroadcast of my episode with Elizabeth Wagmeister and was originally titled, Resilient, because Elizabeth rightly believes being resilient is a key to success. It's been a joy to know and work with Elizabeth since we met when I was casting Page Six TV and she became one of the hosts. Elizabeth is a consummate professional and genuine pleasure - and makes the work look easy. But as Elizabeth points out, hard-work creates luck. As a little girl, Elizabeth dreamed of being a dancer. She tried out for the dance team but didn't make it. She tried out again - and again and again - until she made the team and went on to become nationally ranked.  As so many of my guests have shared on Camera Ready and Abel: Learn from the disappointment, make adjustments and keep going. When Elizabeth and I originally recorded this episode, she was the senior correspondent at Variety (responsible for numerous covers + breaking the Matt Lauer story with Ramin Setoodeh). Now Elizabeth is CNN's Los Angeles-based entertainment correspondent. No matter what your dream job is, Elizabeth beautifully walks you through the best practices, strategies, and steps to get it, including this gem: No matter what your ambitions are, be good at the job you were hired to do.

This episode is brought to you by the phrase, how to read the room, an essential skill for everyone whether you're giving a presentation or a speech, going to a meeting or job interview or audition, leading your team or asking your boss for a raise... Here to discuss is returning champion Marta Ravin. Marta is an Emmy nominated executive producer and showrunner and sought after keynote speaker who started her career in standup comedy, which is where we first met, and where Marta honed her exceptional skills in how to read the room. The Cambridge Dictionary defines reading the room as to be or become aware of the opinions and attitudes of a group of people that you are talking to. How do you do this? It's a sensory experience, explains Marta, and requires you to be present in the moment and attuned to the energy of the space, taking in information with all 5 senses. 3 key takeaways: You have the power to shift the mood of the room and can pivot at any time by engaging the audience with questions. When possible, study up on who your audience is. Take to social media, review websites, Google them so you are prepared with talking points that they will connect to. Reading the Zoom is harder than reading the room. Put your best foot forward and leave your camera on, let people know you are present and engaged…besides, you are Camera Ready!

The topic of relationships come up often in my conversations on Camera Ready & Abel. This is no surprise since media and entertainment are relationship-driven industries. People like to work with people they know and trust to to get the work done on time, on budget and well executed. It's also a fact that media and entertainment are referral driven businesses, and people recommend people they know, like, and trust. So I've pulled together a best-of featuring snippets from my conversations with Emily Grace, J.D. Durkin, Buki Elegbede, and Matthew Hoffman who all advanced their careers in MAJOR ways by nurturing relationships that turned into opportunities because of the people who knew them.  Career coach and Sundance award-winning actress, Emily Grace, tells us how she got her break as an actor, in the role that won her the award at Sundance, without an agent! J.D. Durkin, host and reporter at the New York Stock Exchange for the financial news site The Street who previously created the Washington Bureau for Cheddar News when he was their White House correspondent explains how he came to Washington as an outsider with zero contacts and developed key relationships by being patient and doing simple things that no one else seemed to be doing. Television host, producer and journalist, Buki Elegbede, moved from behind the camera to in front when he won PBS' Create Cooking Challenge and it was the relationships that were formed there that helped launch him to the next level and create Table For All with Buki Elegbede which was nominated for multiple Emmy awards this year! TV host, media personality and popular narrator, Matthew Hoffman, got his big break when he was invited to audition to be the official narrator of the US version of the UK TV smash Love Island. Matthew was competing with household name talent and felt there was absolutely no way he was ever going to book the job, but he was so honored to be invited to audition that he decided to go all out for it, not to get hired, but to maintain his relationship with the casting team and production company so that they would call him again for the next opportunity. Matthew's story inspires me every time I listen to it. Matthew, like Buki, knows his being industrious is a superpower. My conversations with Emily, J.D., Buki, and Matthew are bound together by the phrase, Relationships: It's Who Knows You!  If you are looking for help tapping into your super-powers and advancing your career, I am here for you!
