Book Banter S3 EP 132: Sheila Lowe Interview

Trigger Warning: bleeped words, m*urder and k!lled.
Hello My Happy People,
Today I get to share my chat with bestselling author, Sheila Lowe. She has made a very successful career for herself involving the written word, but not how you might think. Long before she published her first book, she was a respected forensic handwriting analyst.
Sheila’s interest in handwriting analysis began while she was still in high school. She followed her interests and even developed her expertise further by becoming certified as a forensic document examiner.
This newly expanded set of qualifications allows her to testify in court as an expert witness. For many, this would be a satisfying career, but Sheila wanted more. She returned to college earning a Bachelor of Science and a Master of Science in Psychology. These credentials solidified her worth as an expert witness.
Even with a successful career as a handwriting examiner, Sheila was interested in finding other creative avenues where she could make use of her talents. She decided to branch out to explore the opportunities that come with being a published author. Besides her fiction and nonfiction works, Sheila has also published a memoir about how her life changed after the m*rder of her daughter.
To find out more about Sheila and all of her published works, check out today's podcast now! Just click the purple microphone and go.

Book Banter S3 EP 131: Heidi McIntyre Interview

"There is one bleeped word (su!c!de) in this interview"
Hello My Happy People,
If you love a well written story with relatable characters, a little romance, a little magical realism and paranormal encounters that are actually inspired by real star-crossed lovers ... have I got a new author for you!
Heidi McIntyre is a self-proclaimed late bloomer. She put off marriage until her mid-forties and didn’t start writing creatively until a few years later. A career path she was inspired to pursue by a professor who convinced her to change her field of study to English.
It was this change that caused a spark in her to become a published author — a dream she finally realized in February of 2023 with her debut novel Sea Magic . While she admits this passion was slow to ignite in her, she has never let that fire die out since.
Find out more from the author herself about her book, career, and her author coaching. Don't wait, go listen now. Just click the purple microphone below to listen in.

Book Banter S3 EP 130: Det. Gerardo Bloise, Retd.

Trigger warnings: TRUE CRIME - There are bleeped words due to the topic, forensic investigation: k!ll, deth, su!c!de, hom!s!de, m*rder, and crimes against ch!ldren*
Hello My Happy People,
Fans of true crime will be hard-pressed to find another author with the credentials, training, and experience as retired Crime Scene Investigator II, Gerardo Bloise. Gerardo's career in 1983 as a police officer in San Juan, Puerto Rico. After graduating from police training, his first assignment was protection detail for the First Family of the Governor of Puerto Rico.
From that first prestigious placement, Gerardo would go on to earn numerous titles and accreditations in various fields of law enforcement and forensic investigation. Besides furthering his technical training, Gerardo also went on to earn an MA Degree in Public Administration with a concentration in Criminal Justice from the University of Turabo.
In addition to his formal education, Gerardo has extensive hands-on experience in the field, having investigated more than 800 criminal cases. With this kind of background, it is easy to understand how he can write such a riveting account of the criminal investigation he details in his debut novel, CSI: The Casey Anthony Child M*rder Case .
Recently we received notification from Gerardo that on August 3rd, 2024, his debut novel was awarded the prestigious silver award as a police revelation book of autobiography and memoir by the Florida Authors and Publishers Association. Congratulations Gerardo, this honor is well deserved! Find out more now from the author himself about his book, career, and coming publications. Don't wait, go listen now. Just click the purple microphone below.

Book Banter S3 EP129: Lina Hart Interview

Hello My Happy People,
Lina Hart is an acclaimed author known for her captivating young adult sci-fi and dystopian novels and for having amazing timing. Lina just happened to message Dianne Burckhardt the same day the young adult author who had been set for Book Banter with Dianne Burckhardt - Book Talk Podcast Summer Reads Suggestions episodes had to drop out. Lina and her debut novel Beyond Power , were a perfect replacement.
With a style that blends elements of romance, technology, and magical realism, her book delivers a story filled with complex characters that pulls the reader into her world and immerses them in her creation.
Two of the things that make Lina’s storytelling stand out are her use of multi-point of view narrative and non-linear timeline. Lina uses these techniques to engage her readers with stories of struggle and survival set in futuristic landscapes.
The quality of her work is not surprising when you know this is a career path she seemed destined to follow. Don't wait, go listen now to hear the full story from the author herself.
You can find more on Lina and all our authors from June and July in the current issue of Book Banter Magazine (link above).
Enjoy,
Dianne

Book Banter S3 EP 128: Andrew Najberg Interview

Hello My Happy People,
Today I get to share with you my conversation with the incredible Andrew Najberg. Andrew has built a career deeply embedded in the artistry of the written word. Having spent eighteen years as a teacher for the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, he has taught courses in creative writing, rhetoric and composition, and Japanese literature.
Since delving into his own writing career, Andrew has dabbled in various genres from poetry to horror. While he did not find significant publishing success with poetry collections, his move to speculative fiction has earned him a place on bestselling lists on Amazon’s top 100 listings in selected categories.
Andrew has only been focused on writing prose for a few years, but the switch from poetry is definitely paying off. At the time of the writing of this blog post, Andrew’s book Gollitok: A Horror Novel published in 2023 is currently sitting on two Amazon top 100 lists, #26 in Occult Supernatural and #48 in Supernaturalism (Books)
While it would be understandable if Andrew only focused on teaching and writing, this creative dynamo had other plans. Besides teaching and writing his books, articles, short stories, and poetry, Andrew also works as an editor for various publications and pursues his passion for creating art, playing the drums, and still finds time for quality time with his family. To hear more from the author himself, tune in this week on Book Banter with Dianne Burckhardt - Book Talk Podcast. Don't wait, go listen now by clicking the purple microphone below.

Book Banter S3 EP127: Takiyah Smith Interview

Hello My Happy People,
If you have been following along this season, you know that inclusion and representation has been a big theme for us. It is important for anyone to see people like themselves in books, but it is especially true for children. My guest today brings fun, creative, and empowering images to children with her I Love Me! Colorful and Creative coloring books for girls and boys.
When Takiyah Smith began planning her business career, being the author of inspirational and empowering coloring books for children’s was not originally part of her plan. This native San Franciscan attended the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising (FIDM) where she earned her degree in Merchandise Product Development.
While her field of study was originally fashion, the business education Takiyah received at FIDM proved to be transferable once she decided to become an entrepreneur. Takiyah began working with a few local, traditionally published authors. She helped them with promoting their books and with scheduling book signing events. This gave Takiyah a glimpse into the the pros and cons of working with traditional publishing houses.
When Takiyah decided to write and publish her own work, she did seek out a few of the smaller traditional publishing houses, but was not inspired to pursue that path. This experience taught her the main benefit traditional publishers provided new, unknown authors was their large distribution chain. However, Takiyah knew it was possible to work directly with retail outlets to get her books in front of her target market.
Takiyah credits the global pandemic as being an aid that allowed her to shift her focus to her own publishing career. But why not hear her full story from the author herself. Just click the purple microphone below to go listen now.

Book Banter S3 EP126: Darlene Dziomba Interview

Hello My Happy People,
In this week's episode of Book Banter with Dianne Burckhardt, I chat with Darlene Dziomba. Darlene is a cozy mystery writer with two passion projects in her life, writing great cozy mysteries and bringing awareness to the need for pet adoptions and the great work being done at no kill shelters. Darlene has plenty of personal experiences to draw from, due to her own work as a volunteer in a no kill shelter. Her protagonist, Lily Dreyfus, is the Adoption Coordinator at the Forever Friends Animal Shelter.
While animal rescue and adoption has long been an interest for Darlene, being an author was not always a career focus for her. Her career background is actually in finance. She spent 35 years at the University of Pennsylvania doing financial management and fiscal operations. She had no previous writing experience, but that did not stop her from pursuing her dream of writing cozy mysteries. She just set her mind to go after her dream and she did it.
Once Darlene made the choice to write her cozy mysteries, she went straight to work honing her craft. If you have a fondest for well written cozy mysteries with adorable animal sidekicks, you just might have found a new favorite author in Darlene Dziomba. Don't wait, go listen now!
