I’ve been given the opportunity to be interviewed on The Writer’s Block Radio Show. It’s a weekly program that, according to the creators, brings writers and readers together every Thursday night. My interview is scheduled for Thursday, November 17th at 7:00 PM Pacific Time.
You can listen to live broadcasts and recorded podcasts here: http://latalkradio.com/content/writers-block.
Interviews can be done over the phone or live depending on the location of the interviewee. However—for me a big ‘however’ since we don’t have a landline—LA Talk Radio strongly discourages the use of cell phones as they tend to drop calls.
With that little piece of information tucked away, I contacted my son, Travis who lives in LA. When I asked how far the studio is from him he answered, “Pretty close.”
What better way to plan an unprecedented visit with my one and only grandchild? I’m pleased to announce that I’ve purchased my airline ticket and am looking forward to seeing my kids as well as doing the interview. Hm. Perhaps I’ll be able to schedule a book signing while I’m in the neighborhood?
Lots of fun to be had both on and off air. Enjoy😇

Sounds like a win/win to me. One thing, Rochelle, please don’t wear that hat while you are being interviewed on the radio… what will listeners think?

Don’t tell her that, Ted, because she’s convinced me that she can’t talk without her “Ladybird” hat and her crazy shoes. Go for it, Rochelle!!!

Dear Ted and Sandra,
Personally I think the hat would only enhance the interview. 😉 But I wouldn’t want it to get crushed in transit. As for the shoes, you can bet I’ll be wearing them. I might even get a new pair of hot pink laces. The ones in them are wearing thin.

I’m not sure what they say for radio. I know ballet dancers say “merde.” Thank you for the well wishes. I’m really looking forward to this trip. .

You may ask, I don’t know how well I’m doing. I do know that in this day and age, social medial is extremely important. I use Facebook, my blog, at times using Friday Fictioneers as a platform by using a book excerpt. I’m making myself tweet in Twitter. I have a long way to go myself. I hope that helps.
