I’m always asking questions. The fun begins when you start researching for answers. Such as… Why are does it feel like there are swords, knives and other sharp things inside our boot scootin boogie? Plus….What is it about running water that makes us want to pee? I’m Arroe… I am a daily writer. A silent wolf. I stand on the sidelines and do nothing but watch, listen study then activate.

As a receiver of thoughts and ideas, we as people tend to throw it to the side and deal with it later. When a subject arrives, I dig in. It’s still keeping a journal! By doing the research the picture becomes clearer.

The definitive portrait of Kate Middleton, the beloved and private Princess of Wales, tracing her stunning rise from working-class roots to queen-in-waiting, from #1 New York Times bestselling royal biographer Christopher Andersen.Kate is one of the most photographed, most talked about, most written about women in the world-heiress to Princess Diana's glamour and mystique, both wife of one future monarch and mother of another. But as the daughter of an airline attendant who grew up in public housing, Kate was not destined for this fate. She had to fight for it-and for the love of the future king.In this illuminating portrait, master biographer Christopher Andersen chronicles Kate's life, beginning with her humble upbringing; her off-again, on-again love story with William that catapulted her to global fame; and the 2011 "Wedding of the Century." Throughout their marriage, Kate has proven that she is more than just a prince's wife-she is a leader in humanitarian work, the devoted mother of three children in the media spotlight, an unparalleled fashion icon, and the universally adored face of Britain's monarchy.Yet her story is more complex than the public knows. With startling new details from his inside sources, Andersen reveals the full picture: including Kate's fight to repair William and Harry's rift, the disintegration of her relationship with Meghan, her work to refute charges of racism leveled at the monarchy, and her bravery in the face of cancer-her diagnosis and treatment, and the bizarre theories that swirled around her public disappearance.Kate! is an against-all-odds romance, a glittering fairy tale, and a heart-tugging family drama within the modern monarchy-but most of all, an inspiring saga of one woman's grace and grit in the face of adversity.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-view-from-the-writing-instrument--1023245/support.

A proud Navy veteran, Jared Shoemaker channels the same focus he had in service into his work as a country-rock musician. The 32-year-old began his musical journey playing snare drum in an Irish bagpipe band as a kid, but it was during his military service aboard the USS George H.W. Bush that Jared discovered his voice. After leaving the Navy, Jared worked dismantling chemical weapons before realizing his true calling was music. He picked up the guitar again, formed his band, Marshull, during the pandemic, and has been performing across the Southeast ever since, opening for artists such as Diamond Rio and Colt Ford. A proud veteran, horse lover and country-rock frontman, Jared hopes "The Voice" will give him the chance to share his story and his sound with a wider audience.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-view-from-the-writing-instrument--1023245/support.
