Those natural things that unravel within the unwritten chapters of a forest locked in on being itself ahead of all other things. 100% completely natural. I being of human shape have fallen witness to it and constantly find myself bending at the knees in hopes of every finding out why the universe wanted us present as humans.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-view-from-the-writing-instrument--1023245/support.

At 82, while others are slowing down, R.W. Fields published his first book to prove the conversation about racism is far from over I am reaching out to see if you might be interested in featuring author RW Fields. I believe his story and his book would really resonate with your audience.“What growing up in the 1950s taught me about character and courage”RW Fields is an 82 years old author who proves that creativity, humor, and new adventures do not have an expiration date. His book Mullet Man is a heartfelt and humorous story that explores friendship, reinvention, and embracing who you are at every stage of life. It’s a story that reminds readers that getting older doesn’t mean life gets smaller — sometimes it gets more interesting, more meaningful, and even more fun.Mullet Man is a unique and heartfelt story that really emphasizes the friendship between two very different people — separated by both age and socioeconomic background. One is older, set in his ways and shaped by a very different era, while the other is younger and navigating a completely different world financially, socially, and culturally. What develops between them is an unexpected friendship that crosses generational and class lines, and it becomes a story about dignity, understanding, and how people from completely different walks of life can still profoundly impact each other.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-view-from-the-writing-instrument--1023245/support.

I’m always asking questions. The fun begins when you start researching for answers. Such as… Is time moving faster forward or in a memory? Plus…do people’s jobs and careers lead to other addictions? 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. I call it The Daily Mess. A chronological walk through an everyday world. Yes, it’s my morning writing. 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.

Artist and Actor Sebastian Tillinger Makes His Publishing Debut with a Raw and Searching Memoir of Life in 1999—Written When He Was 25 In HOW THE FERRIS WHEEL WAS BROKEN: A Love Letter to Los Angeles (August, 2026 | Regalo Press / Distributed by Simon & Schuster | $21.00 | Trade Paperback | ISBN: 9798895656778), author Sebastian Tillinger writes an honest, stream-of-consciousness memoir that details his struggles to find work as an actor, audition after demoralizing audition, with 57 characters crammed in his head, while walking the tightrope between art and making money, celebrity parents and his own insecurities. Along with his search for work, purpose, and meaning, Sebastian writes about love in all its messiness. Years after they first met in acting class, he reconnects with Sarah, a "petite stunner" with black hair who grew up in Boulder, Colorado, and was a drummer in an all-girl punk band in the eighties when it mattered. Six years his senior, she is the first woman he had sex with whom he truly loved. He asks Sarah to marry him, mostly to prove he’s a man. (“I don’t believe in marriage,” he muses. “I don’t really know what I’m getting into.”) And he nearly screws up that chance when he gets high in the courthouse while they’re waiting to get their marriage license. (Imagine going through the X-ray machine with an eighth of weed and a metal pipe stashed in your pockets… Sebastian did it.)Deeply introspective and wildly entertaining, HOW THE FERRIS WHEEL WAS BROKEN invites us to hop inside 25-year-old Sebastian Tillinger’s head and travel back to 1999. I hope after reading the book, you’ll agree that Sebastian's trip was never dull.

Do you believe in resurrections? They happen every day. But are you willing to listen, to participate, to explore and find newer ways to understand your personal journey? This podcast isn’t about what we study and see through the eyes of religion. My Boy Boy Ernie spoke with me every chance we had together. But this isn’t about resurrecting a spiritual brother of nearly 34 years. This resurrection is that of a writing instrument. Verbal documentation of what some may call a vision quest. Trusting the great mysteries of life. Tools are handed to us to carve out each expectation. This tool was laid to rest inside a forest floor. To experience the elements of reality while connecting with a universe that unconditionally shares its stories. But whose writing it?

For those of you who enjoyed the magic and heart of Remarkably Bright Creatures and the spellbinding undertones and fictionalized history of Last Call at the Savoy, you’ll absolutely love this tale of second-chances, family, and the overarching question we find ourselves asking: after everything is said and done, what am I worth in the end? Grace Schaffer's talent once landed her a coveted spot on Antiques Roadshow, where she charmed legions of viewers. But she’s recently fallen from her gilded perch, losing her career, her marriage, and her very identity in the process, leaving her with the same question her clients so often ask of her: What is it worth? Or, the question that beats beneath it, what am I worth?In a last-ditch attempt to revive her career, she signs on to an amateur traveling show, where an old, tarnished necklace grants a strange and sudden confidence; she begins predicting the precise amount that objects will sell for at auction—prices that have more to do with the sentiment attached to the object than their market value. But the gift of divination comes with a price; Grace catches the attention of detractors and fans alike, all clamoring to see what she’ll do next.Caught in the necklace’s strange and possibly dangerous thrall, Grace joins the hunt to uncover a lost masterpiece … before it disappears forever, taking her hopes and dreams with it. You don’t want to miss this glittering debut that marries the beauty of the past with a touch of the fantastic, offering an irresistible tale of second chances. “Panitch’s first novel is a touching story about the value people place on the objects in their lives and on themselves; fans of Antiques Roadshow will especially enjoy.”Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-view-from-the-writing-instrument--1023245/support.

In an unprecedented creative milestone, BAG Production Records announces the simultaneous release of eight new albums by acclaimed clarinetist, composer, and improvisational master Ben Goldberg on August 8."For me the number is basically eight," Goldberg notes, "on account of having eight letters in my first name and eight in my last name, and on account of having been born on 8/8."Recorded over the last several years, the "8 x 8" collection embodies Goldberg’s evolving musical vocabulary, featuring exploratory cross-generational collaborations: Two duos, three trios, two quartets, and a quintet.A Legacy of Radical Improvised Music8 x 8 reflects decades of musical exploration. Raised in a household steeped in speech-communication research — a background that informs his rhythmically unique, speech-like phrasing — Goldberg honed his technique under clarinet master Rosario Mazzeo and studied with Joe Henderson and Steve Lacy.In the 1980s Goldberg’s New Klezmer Trio (with drummer Kenny Wollesen), injected the raw, spatial energy of avant-garde jazz into traditional structures, leading to collaborations with artists including Andrew Hill, Nels Cline, Bobby Bradford, and John Zorn. This musical heritage is fully realized across the "8 x 8" collection, capturing the sheer velocity of his current creative circles.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-view-from-the-writing-instrument--1023245/support.
