God, Tragedy, Laughs

Hi. I'm writing this from my kitchen table in Montgomery, Alabama. Most of my life I spent in New York City. Moving here has been a big change but a great one. There is everything you could want down south....sunshine, fresh air, bible study groups. Okay, I don't partake in the last of these, but I am intrigued.

Anyway, I'm writing this blog because I wanted to share some interviews I've been doing about writing, the creative process, and my latest books. If you're a fan of mine, and I know there are at least three or four of you out there, please consider watching these videos.

The first is called The Writer Talks and was a chance to discuss the truly challenging times India is going through in terms of the pandemic, the new double mutant variant, the lack of oxygen in hospitals, as well as how all that relates to my poetry book, Notes From The Bonfire If you haven't checked out this book yet, it discusses what I experienced after coming down with coronavirus and my general poetic response to the whole pandemic. I caught it in March 2020, in New York City, the heart of the first U.S. epicenter, and employed those experiences in discussing this harrowing time.

I was also recently on the DYI Writer Podcast where we had a more general discussion of the creative process. I offered some tips for writing humor and described my creative process. We also tackled how I approach writing in different modes (humor, poetry etc.), the indie publishing scene, book marketing, and many other writing-related topics. This was another fun podcast and it was great to discuss "Notes From The Bonfire," and my humor book, Do Not Feed The Clown

In addition to the above, I also discussed my books recently on The Staten Island Comedy Show and on The EdTyll Show on 660AM, Florida Man Radio.

If you do get to check out my latest poetry collection, "Notes From The Bonfire," 50% of proceeds go to Doctors Without Borders. If you prefer, you can also contribute directly to this great charity in support of India and the crisis they face Here

Thanks for reading. If you have feedback, I'd love it if you could share it with me on my twitter
