When we first considered doing a show on the nonfiction book category of spirituality and metaphysics, we weren't sure how our audience would receive the topic. After all, we're not about preaching to anyone. The world of self-publishing is a big tent, with a broad welcome mat - and we want to keep it that way. Our first impulse was to invite one or more authors whose books are popular and get their views on how people have responded to their work. But then we had the idea to invite someone who is mainly a reader, who has read widely and doesn't necessarily have a personal message to deliver. Our featured guest Denis Hutchison is co-proprietor with his wife Lois of Afterglow of Sedona (Arizona). We only found out as we were interviewing him that he used to have his own spiritually centered radio show in Phoenix. (Denis does have a deep, mellow voice that is comforting in itself.) #amwriting #selfpub #podcast His observations and insights about spirituality and metaphysics may surprise you. And - considering that this episode has logged many more listeners than anything we've ever put out there - many of you have found value in his remarks. Our host Gerald Everett Jones and his co-hosts sci-fi author Thomas Page and journalist Cheyenne Cockrell also enjoy a spirited, full and frank exchange of views among themselves.

Our host Gerald Everett Jones and co-hosts Cheyenne Cockrell and Thomas Page consider how poetry and spoken word before an audience can both entertain and stimulate the creative process. #amwriting #selfpub #poetry #podcast What IS the difference between poetry and spoken word? Why do you think live poetry readings and spoken-word presentations have become so popular? Radio shows and podcasts – particularly podcasts – of poetry seem to be gaining in popularity. Do you think this is a new opportunity for poets? Have you ever tried to write poetry? Spoken word? Then we're joined by special guest, creative coach Terrie Silverman, of CreativeRites (www.creativerites.com) who responds to: How do you help people develop and investigate their stories – whether for the page or the stage? How does your own work inform your teaching? You seem to have a talent for drawing expression out of people who want to write but haven't had much previous success at it. What's the secret to getting it all to flow? Have you ever found that someone's work is painful, either to them or to the group? How do you deal with that? Of the people who intend to write memoir, how often to you find it morphing into something else? Is self-expression always therapeutic? What are the challenges of performing your writing or your stories? How can our listeners get in touch with you? Gerald Everett Jones is author of Bonfire of the Vanderbilts. And, as ever, there's lots of advice on how to get published, including the support resources at our website getpublishedradio.com.
