Podcast appearances and mentions of patricia nell warren

It's a real treat to talk to Steve Dolainski, my friend of many years now, who introduced me to my new path as a workshop and class facilitator! I met Steve over a decade ago. We co-edited and published an anthology of LGBTQ writers over 50, including several who have become my friends. Outer Voices Inner Lives was a Lambda Literary Award finalist for anthology, and includes a foreword by the late, great, Patricia Nell Warren. Fast forward ten years, and I finally had the pleasure of meeting Steve in person on a trip to California. He told me he'd become a certified Guided Autobiography instructor and was conducting classes with the LGBTQ Center in L.A. I was hooked! I'm certified myself now too, and looking forward to my third act (as Jane Fonda calls life after 65), offering workshops and classes in Guided Autobiography and fiction writing (YourWritePath.com). Listen to this short interview with Steve where he talks about GAB (as we call it), making new roads to travel, and contemplating the ones we've already come on!
