A Book and a Chat with Chad Coenson

Humor has always been a way of putting over a point from the Greek philosophers to programs like British satirical puppet Spitting image add to those thoughts the words of the Monty Python Bruce’s Song “I drink therefore I am” . Take that and bend it around the lyrics of Kris Kristofferson song “Me and Bobby McGee” and you have the award winning novel of the same name by my guest Chad Coenson.

Chad has from an early age found putting over a point of view easier in the written word normally laced with humor, his travels have perhaps given him an insight into life that others do not have, and we heard during the show his sense of humor adds to both his views and his writing.

When you try and pigeonhole “Me and Bobby McGee” into a genre, it is like looking at the colors from a prism, “it all depends what angle you are looking at it from.” The book is full of humor, it is a thriller, it is satire and it’s even been called SC FI. The one thing that you will find is that the book is a masterpiece of comedic literature. Good enough to win the 2011 Independent Publisher Book Awards Silver Medal for Best Regional Fiction West-Pacific.

About “Me and Bobby McGee” (taken from Amazon)

Prepare to embark on a thrilling comedic adventure seen through the booze-blurred eyes of Keesey Cypher, a government-trained killer with an ill-fated abundance of classified memories who has since resigned himself to a regrettable existence, sipping away his tainted past. It is this powerful thirst coupled with Cypher's hunger for games of chance that leads him to New Orleans' coziest dive-bar the day after Fat Tuesday where one night of seeming misfortune leads to a frighteningly funny reality of subversive politics, corporate greed, backwards logic, and star (double)-crossed romance.

In this gripping social satire of modern times, Me and Bobby McGee pokes fun at the inane absurdities ingrained in our society, proving that freedom is truly subjective and karma is not just a philosophy, but a fate that is unwavering. And as an added bonus, for the careful reader and music fan, there are subtle connections throughout the novel to the classic folk song that inspired its title.

In a world of terrible truths and impending doom, find out what happens when the only man with the power to stop it... decides not to.

As one reviewer out it...

"There are several laugh-out loud moments; at the same time, there are moments which will make you ponder about life and its absurdities. It's entertaining and thought-provoking - a rare combination indeed." - Misha (My Love Affair With Books)

With a second book being planned the humor and satire promises to keep flowing from "Keesey Cypher" and his creator the guest on today's show "Chad Coenson".

A Book and a Chat with Stephen Brayton

Stephen Brayton in an interview described himself as “This time traveling guy who flits around the universe in a British police call box. Usually he has a beautiful companion…” knowing he meant the one and only Dr Who, how could I not want an interview this author.

Stephen describes himself as a reader; a writer; an instructor; a graphic designer; a lover of books, movies, wine, women, music, fine food, good humor, sunny summer days spent hiking or fishing; and I'm a catnip drug dealer to my thirteen pound cat, Thomas. He is also a Fifth Degree Black Belt instructor in the American Taekwondo Association, which happens to be one belt higher than Mallory Petersen the hero of his book “Beta”.

Mallory Petersen, a Fourth Degree Black Belt and private investigator, who divides her time between instructing martial arts and taking on clients and cases that are…a little odd.

It's not that she wants bad things to happen to people, but it makes life more interesting when they do.

In “Beta”, Mallory accepts a case to find Cheryl McGee’s kidnapped eight year old daughter, she is pulled into the dark underworld of child pornography. The trail soon leads to the Quad Cities, where Mallory partners with an officer from the Special Case Squad.

As the investigation deepens, Mallory discovers there’s more to the girl's disappearance than her client let on.

This is actually the second book in the Mallory Preston series, the first book being “Alpha”, which is currently under re-write.

Along with the detective series, Stephen has also produced “Night Shadows”

About Night Shadows:

Des Moines Homicide detective Harry Reznik and F.B.I. agent, Lori Campisi, have their hands more than a little full when they team up to investigate a series of gruesome murders.

With life throwing them one obstacle after another, the unlikely pair has no choice but to put their personal issues aside as they battle malevolent creatures from another dimension. With everything to lose, they have no one but each other to count on in a wicked game of survival.

With further Mallory Peterson books, a sequel to Night Shadows, a thriller with a woman who uses Army Ranger skills to survive in the woods after being attacked by four men, and possibly a romance novel, I am sure we’ll hear plenty more about “Stephen Brayton.

A Book and a Chat with Barbara Conelli

My guest today was a bestselling author at the age of four, when she wrote a story which thrilled fellow kindergarteners for all of twenty-four hours.

That was just the start for Barbara Conelli, who along with the title of bestselling author can add globetrotter, chocoholic, avid linguist, very eager yet very bad golf player and a “Chique” person with a passion for all things Italion.

This love can be seen through the her eyes and of course words in her debut book “Chique Secrets of Dolce Vita” the first of her charming, delightful and humorous Chique Books filled with Italian passion, in which she invites readers to explore Italy from the comfort of their home with elegance, grace and style, encouraging them to live their own Dolce Vita no matter where they are in the world.

Her book has brought in many comments and reviews. When it starts with…

“To live a dolce vita means living with an open heart and soul, indulging in life with all your senses. It means having the eyes to see real beauty, having the nose to semll intoxicating scents, having the ears to hear dreamy sounds, having the mouth to taste delicate flavors, having the body to perceive soft sensations. It means being aware of yourself, of your emotions and desires. It means finding happiness in ordinary yet unique things.”

How can you not just long to read more, the almost poetic grace and flow will have the reader mentally sipping Chianti, while working out when they can make the flight to enjoy the same sights and sounds of Milan, which Barbara paints in her book.

This is not the last book in this range as Barbara shared with us, book two “Chique Secrets of Dolce Amore” will be out next year to share more about Milan, the everyday magic of its dreamy streets, the passionate romance of its elegant hideaways, and the sweet Italian art of delightfully falling in love with your life wherever you go.

With a future book about Rome already planned I am sure this will not be the last we’ll here of the very chique Barbara Conelli.

A Book and a Chat with Kathi Macias

With almost 400 shows under the “Book and a Chat” belt we’ve had many guests appearing several times on shows, today I am very pleased to have one of our most popular and prolific authors back on the show, the one and only Kathi Macias.

Always an interesting and entertaining guest, Kathi shared with us about a new series of three books she has written, once again touching on something that will not only make the reader will enjoy reading about but also make them think.

The first book in the new series is called “Deliver Me From Evil” the start of a series which goes into the world of slavery, or human trafficking. As Kathi shared with us during the show, there are estimated to the 27 million people around the world involved in human trafficking, with upwards of 300,000 in the USA.

In “Deliver Me From Evil” we meet Maria who has been taken by her Uncle to be sold at sixteen she is one of the oldest - she has seen many children die in the conditions Readers will also meet 18-year-old, Bible-college-bound Jonathan and his 16-year-old sister, Leah, whose paths cross Mara’s and who become involved in her dramatic rescue.

Interwoven between the stories of Mara, Jonathan, and Leah is the heartbreaking story of another young woman in captivity in the Golden Triangle of Thailand, whose past life mysteriously connects to the young people in San Diego.
As one reviewer put it…

Growing up in New Zealand , we don't at times realise how blessed and safe though of course we are not short of the horrific crimes that occur but compared to America and other countries we are quite lucky.

Deliver Me From Evil touches base on a topic that scarily enough does happen and more often than not , the number of victims are higher in statistics than the number of survivors and escapees. Overseas, we read that Human Trafficking is one of the biggest crimes - Children mainly from countries like Mexico, South American Countries are taken or sold from their homes by their families with hope that they can get a better life over in America - across the borders. However , more often than not the families of the children who are used for Human Trafficking aren't aware of the consequences as they believe their child is better off when in fact -they are worst off as they are beaten, sold, kept in captivity and not nurtured for.

These children are sold to the highest bidder and used for Prostitution etc. It is a game to many people, but for the girls -they have to learn to stay strong as only the strong will survive. .. (The Phantom Paragrapher)

Kathi told us how she struggled with writing this book series, as even for her the subject and just what she found out from her investigation went to some very dark areas.

I am sure this will be yet another “smash hit” of a series for Kathi.

On a lighter note, Kathi also has he first but by no means the last “Christmas Book” coming out.

“A Christmas Journey Home” tells of two widowed woman, one driven by fear and a promise, the other by bitterness and revenge who must make their journeys along different pathways, but with the same destination: a barn full of animals that stands waiting for them on Christmas Eve.

Forced to face their personal demons, Isabella and Miriam soon discover a common yearning that will bind them together in a most miraculous way.

As always Kathi left us with a snippet of her up and coming work, with a second Christmas book already penciled in for 2012, and the release of the further novel in the “Deliver Me From Evil” series, she will be working with other authors on a book series about a fictitious town. I’m sure we will hear more about that during a show next year.

A Book and a Chat with Vincent Hobbes

Vincent Hobbes is my guest on today’s “A Book and a Chat”. He has been actively writing since he was 15 years old. A fan “The Twilight Zone” his roots lay in horror, though now he has branched out into other genres.

In 2007, he published his first book “The Contrived Senator” the first book in a fantasy series, which was followed the following year by book two of the series “Exiles”,

Vincent has always been into writing short stories and in 2010 he teamed up with 11 incredible authors, and created The Endlands.

This horror anthology, like chicken soup for the sole for horror readers, “The Endlands”, an ode to the kooky and bizarre,was released at the start of this year.

As Vincent shared with us on the radio show, the book was the result of many hundreds of short stories he received, ranging from multi published authors to a person who had one story that had to be told.

The finished book includes seventeen different stories ranging across various styles of horror, I'm sure it would make a great TV series, perhaps a little like Twilight Zone for horror fans.

As Midwest Book Review put it…

There is little more primordially frightening to us than the unknown. “The Endlands” is a collection of short stories aimed to frighten and ponder what we all fear the most, what’s behind that corner, what is there to antagonize us and what we simply cannot explain. With plenty to ponder and plenty to make it quite hard to put down, “The Endlands” is an excellent read and very highly recommended.

With a second book already being prepared, to follow “The Endlands", Vincent is currently finishing two solo authored books; one is a horror novel set in the wild west, the other is a futuristic novel—dystopian.

A Book and a Chat with Ted Poppe

Ted Poppe is the guest on “A Book and a Chat” today, where he shared with us the fascinating story of how he became a publisher and a teacher of “A Course in Miracles” (ACIM).

Ted grew up in Greenwich Village in the 60′s and went to a Jesuit Military High School in New York City before graduating from Jesuit University to become an Intensive Care caseworker for a Catholic Child Care agency.

He went through some difficult and troubling times, before in 1986 after an intense two week period of revelatory experiences, he was shown ACIM while in the Clint Eastwood Recovery Center in Monterrey, California. He was sure it was from Jesus and was the same instructions he was given during the revelations he experienced. He knew he would be involved with this contemporary teaching of Spirit, and felt it was something for everyone everywhere.

After working with the Course for several months, through a process of contemplation of the principles and listening to instructions/guidance from within, he found through his studies that some of the original words told to the scribe (Helen Schucman) had been edited out of the final version of “A Course of Miracles”.

From there ted set out on what can only be described as a very bumpy journey to against legal and copyright cases not only in America but also in Australia, where Ted had been doing much of his teaching.

Eventually after 8 years of litigation they prevailed in the case in NY Federal Court and the copyright was voided and the “Sparkly” as his version of “A Course in Miracles” had become known is now able to be published and shared.

From that Ted has gone on set up his own publishing company “Diamond Clear Vision” and been able to publish several other award winning books, including children books “We Are One” and “We Are Loved”

A Book and a Chat with Mary Carter

Mary Carter is my guest on today’s “A Book and a Chat”. She started writing at the age of four, with her first story being, The Boy and the Mouse. Then in third grade she won a story-writing contest, this time her work was about a boy and a muskrat. I’m sure there must be some deep underlining reason for this early creativity around boys and rodents that would fill pages on a psychiatrist’s report…

From this early start Mary went on to graduate from the American Academy of Dramatic Arts, and the National Technical Institute for the Deaf, which is part of the Rochester Institute of Technology A background that has definitely helped her in her writing process.

In 2004 Mary decided she wanted to write a book after years of essays, letters, journals, poems, plays, and a screenplay the result of which was her first novel “She’ll Take It” a story about Melanie Zeitgar. Aspiring actress-turned-bored temp. The Queen of Divine Quips… And a total kleptomaniac. For Mel, stealing is a lot like love: she knows the right thing when she sees it...

This was followed by “Accidently Engaged”, “Sunny Side Blues” and “My Sisters Voice”. All covering different subjects yet penned with the same style, characterization and wonderful storyline that keeps her readers asking for more.
Mary’s latest book is called “The Pub Across the Pond” , Mary says about this latest book…

“Like Carlene Rivers, the main character in The Pub Across the Pond, I’ve always had a fascination with Ireland. I was also dating an Irishman at the time. And hanging out a lot in an Irish pub. I used to see advertisements for the contest Guinness used to run to ‘Win a pub in Ireland’. Basically it was a wish-fulfillment project, how amazing I always thought to just pack up your life and go run a pub in Ireland. So cool. I guess I’m always jealous, so I funnel it through my writing."

Amongst the comments made by readers of this great book is the fact that it is not your “typical Irish romance novel”, you know… big castle on the hill, etc, etc. It is a story written about Irish people, their humor and magic, friendliness including depth and warmth of their hearts and loyalties as a community.

About “The Pub Across the Pond”:

Carlene Rivers is many things. Dutiful, reliable, kind. Lucky? Not so much. At thirty, she's living a stifling existence in Cleveland, Ohio. Then one day, Carlene buys a raffle ticket. The prize: a pub on the west coast of Ireland. Carlene is stunned when she wins. Everyone else is stunned when she actually goes.

As soon as she arrives in Ballybeog, Carlene is smitten, not just by the town's beguiling mix of ancient and modern but by the welcome she receives. In this small town near GalwayBay, strife is no stranger, strangers are family, and no one is ever too busy for a cup of tea or a pint. And though her new job presents challenges--from a meddling neighbor to the pub's colorful regulars--there are compensations galore. Like the freedom to sing, joke, and tell stories and, in doing so, find her own voice. And in her flirtation with Ronan McBride, the pub's charming, reckless former owner, she just may find the freedom to follow where impulse leads and trust her heart--and her luck--for the very first time.

It is a book that all will enjoy, and will touch your heart bringing a smile to your lips and a tear to your eye.

So listen now and share an interesting and entertaining show as I spend thirty minutes sharing "A Book and a Chat with Mary Carter"... I even managed to find the clip of me singing that I promised during the show... well sort of singing...Barry singing Gypsy Rover

A Book and a Chat with Terrell Dunnum

My guest on today’s “A Book and a Chat” is Terrell Dunnum, a school teacher and ordained non-denominational minister. He holds a master’s degree in Christian counseling from American Bible College and Seminary. He is the founder of Total Freedom Ministries, Inc., a non-profit organization that provides mentoring, biblical counseling, and basic life skills to troubled youths and families.

His debut book is “While There is Still Time” a book of prophecy revealed through poetry.

The inspiration for this book came from a series of events that transferred what many people would be consider a dream into the actuality of reality. Writing a book was not something Terrell had set out to do. In fact, the only writing he’d thought about was that which was requirement for obtaining his master’s degree in Christian Counseling.
One day the words of poetry started flowing into his mind and Terrell found himself at odd times of the day or night having to stop whatever he was doing and let the creating of these poems just take place, let the words flow from his mind, allow himself to be used to share the words.

The end result is this great book “While There is Still Time”. As one reviewer put it...

Author Terrell Dunnum uses his gift of words to express a message of faith and action in WHILE THERE IS STILL TIME. Combining scriptures that speak of a necessary sense of urgency along with the author's skill, the book takes you into what is needed in order to ensure we are making the most of the time we have here.

Time is really the operative word, since the sign of the times seem to indicate that the events we see going on in the world is leading us towards either destruction or the promise of eternal life. As with the title, the book reminds us again and again that there is a choice to be made. It is up to the reader whether he or show will heed the call.

Dunnum reminds us of the Holy Scriptures message that God is speaking to us all the time in the world and situations we see. The question then becomes 'Are we listening?' The answer could literally mean the difference between life and death.

The words that are shared in “While There is Still Time” are not preachy, they are not does and don’ts, they are just a poetic message that he shares to help with the reader that will help many along life’s bumpy roads.

A Book and a Chat with Nemo James

Derek Newark aka Nemo James is my guest on today’s “A Book and a Chat” on whitch he not only shared about his great book “Just a Few Seconds” but also some of his own songs.

Nemo, dreamt of becoming a professional musician from the first time he “picked up” a guitar following a talent content disaster, where he didn’t even get on the stage.
Thought of by his friends as being the person most likely to make the big time he turned professional but was continually side tracked by the need to earn a living from music. This included such of shoots as becoming a professional squash player.
As Nemo shared with us during the show, his journey took him all over the world from private gigs for the rich and famous to some of London’s roughest pubs where the guitar can be as much for defense as for playing.

He started in the late sixties when heavy rock was born, even turning down a chance to join some newly formed band called Genesis, through to the 1980’s and 90’s when discos and electronics decimated live music dance halls.

Even the name he chose was not without it story…

Why not use Nemo. That was your grandfather’s nickname.” Grandfather Nemo was a real character who died long before I was born. He basically “sold the family jewelry” and asked nothing more from life than anonymity and playing cards at whist drives. Nemo is Latin for “no one” so he always used that when signing on at whist drives. I loved the name, but was still stuck for a surname; when suddenly the name “James” came into my head, despite not knowing anyone called James, so there was no reason why I should have thought of it. Then a couple of weeks later my dad said out of the blue “Do you know your grandfather was one of 9 children and the eldest was called James … and he was poet.”

About “Just a Few Seconds”

Just A Few Seconds is a story of one man’s experience in the music business. It is an amusing and true story of a successful freelance musician whose gigs ranged from private parties to the very rich and famous to the roughest London pubs where playing the wrong song at the wrong time meant the difference between life and death. He takes more twists, turns and knocks than a mouse trapped in a pinball machine but the ending shows how the road to success can lead us down the strangest and most desolate of paths. If you are looking for the usual rock star memoirs full of sex drugs and rock and roll then this book is not for you, but if you are interested in a unique insight into the music business that reads like a thriller then this book won’t disappoint.

If the stories we heard on the show are just a sprinkling of what are in the book then I’m sure it’s a read many will enjoy.

So listen now and share an interesting and entertaining show as I spend thirty minutes sharing "A Book and a Chat with Nemo James".
