Announcing a podcast...

2/12/2023

Hello blog friends,

I've some good news to share. But first a confession - I'm an avowed introvert, especially when it comes to marketing. I'd hide, if I could. That admitted, my friends at Voice of Indie pulled me out of my cave and invited me to their podcast on Wednesday. We'll talk about my new book, REDEMPTION. If you have interest, the link is below. 

REDEMPTION, A Father's Fatal Decision is a story of forgiveness, intertwined in a suspense thriller. The theme travels through family secrets to the final resolution of the turmoil. A brother and sister team solve the mystery of their father's hidden life, and in so doing, they discover the meaning of redemption.

Maybe of interest? If so, please join us.
​ 
Enjoy your week, dear friends, and HAPPY VALENTINES DAY! ❤️

Fantastic! I look forward to listening to the recording, as the live time is a tad too early in the morning for me, lols. I’m sure this will be a wonderful episode, Gwen!

Huge hugs! 🤗💕🙂

All the best on the podcast, Gwen. Having shared a number of them with you I don't believe your introvert preference will stand in the way of a terrific performance.

I'm the same kind of introvert, but the guys sweet-talked me. I don't know if my interview was engaging, but I had a lot of fun chatting with them. I know you'll be a big hit and have a blast.

Way to go, Gwen! I'm referring to the completion of the new book and for doing the podcast. My experience has been that we make the most growth and the next hill seems less daunting when we get out of our comfort zone to try something new.

I'm still waiting to meet the person who says they love marketing. I think many of us associate singing our praises as walking around with a flashing light on our heads that reads, "egomaniac." Of course, this isn't the case, but in our brains we've convinced ourselves it's the same.

Yep, I'm with you, Pete, on all points. Thank you for the encouraging words. 😊

Redemption is only a week away. (Strange and rather cool how well that works as a dual-meaning sentence!) Going on my TBR!

LOL That is cool. BTW, there's an important "character" in Redemption with the name Priscilla. It might make you smile. 😊

I just finished listening to your podcast interview. I am very impressed with the research you did! How long did it take you? And I'm glad I pre-ordered Redemption!

Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms—to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way. ―Viktor E. Frankl, Man’s Search for Meaning
