I'm Hosting a New Show on Blog Talk Radio’s World of Ink Network

Blog Talk Radio’s World of Ink Network has a new show: Families Matter with hosts VS Grenier and Kecia Burcham. The Families Matter show will air live once a month on the 3rd Wednesday at 6pm EST.

The idea of this new show on Blog Talk Radio’s World of Ink Network is to have guests (adults or kids) share information to help empower children and their families. The first show on June 15, 2011 will be about bullying and how children and their families can deal with this ever growing problem.

She is also a certified NLP life coach, business coach, master weight loss coach and social/emotional intelligence coach. Kecia is a published poet, author and songwriter. She has worked in the field of education/psychology for 20 years and has one grown daughter.

Grenier is also the Founder and Owner of Stories for Children Publishing, LLC, which puts out Stories for Children Magazine and SFC Newsletter for Writers; along with running a successful blog SFC: Families Matter, the World of Ink Virtual Tours and other writing services.

VS: Mayra, I want to thank you for being my guest here on The Writing Mama today. You and I have known each other via the internet for a few years now, but I am sure there is more to learn about you, as I have found out with others. Now I know you have a daughter who also writes, so my first question is do you have any other children and what are their ages? Mayra: First, I want to say thanks for having me on your blog, Virginia . I do have two kids: a girl (who is the writers) age 12 and a boy age 18 (he still counts as a kid for me!)....

2014 Nationa Noval Writing Month Begins!

I decided it was time to take my outline and short scene I did for a writing workshop and finally make it into the novel I've talked about for many years. What makes this novel so special to me isn't the fact I'm doing it for NaNo, but the fact it is based on true events from my junior year of high school. The main character is a mirror of myself in that year. The emotions I felt when I lost my best friend have never wholly been shared. I have rarely (and very lightly) talked about this event to anyone. I have never faced down this time in my life and I hope during this process I finally heal completely. A few words to my dear friend: Dear Jennifer, This is the first time in 20 odd years I have opened myself up since your passing.

You were just stepping onto the path of life when it was suddenly and tragically...

Interview Friday with Mikey Brooks, author & Illustrator

VS: I want to thank you for being my guest here on The Writing Mama today. How long have you been writing? Mikey: I started writing when I was about 14 year old. I lived in a rural town in Missouri and our nearest neighbor was about a mile away. So friends were hard to come by. I fell in love with stories like Narnia and the Wizard of Oz and wished I could escape to these worlds. I had a hid out in the woods that surrounded our farm and I wrote about a world that existed in the reflection of a pond. I have a lot of fond memories about those woods. VS: What inspired you to write your books? Mikey: My children are the inspiration behind a lot of my stories now. Bean’s Dragons is based on my daughter and her imaginary dragons she has flying, parading, and trashing throughout the house. She was kind enough to let me glimpse into her world for just a moment to capture the magic within. My girls also love ABC books and shows. Because I love fantastical creatures, I wa...
