GUYS AND THEIR RIDES

Greetings, Cool Peeps:

Let me ask you this: What does your ride say about you?

I know some peeps are just happy to have wheels to take them where they need to go. Let's face it, we're in some tough financial times, and having a car to match your personality isn't at the top of the average person's list. That being said, when I see certain vehicles, I can't help but wonder if the owner is male and what he might look like. And sometimes, when I see a particular man of interest, I like to play a ...

MEET CHAD RENFRO

This week, I'm interviewing Chad Renfro, a very special guy. From Owensboro, KY, Chad has always dreamed of being an actor. From a very early age, he would act out movies in the living room and later create movies with his family's video camera. And he hasn't stop pursuing his dream since. Please, join me in getting to know this multi-talented and very cool dude.

Hey there, Chad. It's great to have you as my guest this week. You've always known that you wanted to be an entertainer since you...

GERMS, GERMS, GERMS!

Greetings, Cool Peeps:

This week, I'm here to talk about germs. No, not the ones I have dated, but the kind that are ubiquitous and invisible. The kind that make us sick.

I'm not quite OCD crazy like Howie Mandel is, but some days, I come close. Like Howie, I do freak out when I see Jay Leno come out for his monologue and grab all of those hands of all of those people in his audience. Maybe Jay steams his hands clean during the commercial break; I don't know.

I remember the first time I had a ...

MEET AL BOUDREAU

This week, my guest is Al Boudreau, author of In Memory of Greed, a riveting page turner.

Thanks for being my guest this week, Al. Please, tell us a bit about yourself.

My pleasure, Molly. I first started writing about two years ago, and discovered that it was a real passion for me. Since then, I've self-published my debut novel, a mystery/thriller called In Memory of Greed, which is available in ebook format. My goal is to slowly transition from my current career in architectural...

TEN WACKO THINGS I DO

Greetings, Cool Peeps:

Do you ever wonder about yourself? Do you ever look in the mirror and say, "Are you freakin' kidding me?" For those who have ever pondered their own behavior, I'm coming clean with ten wacko things I do or have done. I won't be doing them David Letterman countdown style because I couldn't possibly rate these acts in terms of wackiness.

1. I like to test beauty products in stores. Being a lotion freak, I scan the shelves looking for the bottle labeled Tester and I go to...

MEET L.M. STULL

Greetings, Cool Peeps:

This week, my guest is the fantabulous, L.M. Stull. Originally a D.C. native, she now resides in southern Virginia. She has always been a creative person and studied classical piano and dance from a young age.

Her official bio states, "During the day you will find her chained to a desk at a law firm. Yes, she works for lawyers. Now you understand why she writes about creatures . . . Boom! At night she channels her inner creative monster and writes (sorry, she doesn't...

BEAM ME UP, SCOTTY!

Greetings, Cool Peeps:

"Beam me up, Scotty."

Oh, how I wish what worked for Captain Kirk would work for me.

Today I'm going to talk about traveling: the good, the bad, and the ugly. My favorite part about trippin' is arriving at my destination. Everything in between usually stresses me out.

Does anyone like to pack? Have you ever taken a trip when you used exactly what you calculated you would need, no more, no less? Even if I'm taking a quick jaunt for business, I never get it right. If I fly ...

MEET MARTA MORAN-BISHOP

This week, my guest is Marta Moran-Bishop, author of Wee Three: A Mother's Love in Verse, and all-around fascinating human being.

It is such a pleasure to have you as my guest this week. Please, tell the cool peeps about yourself.

Hi Molly, I am so pleased to be here.

I am the third generation of women writers, come from a family of nine, and have lived in eight states. It took me a while to find out that writing was my true passion, and I am also passionate about painting, video production...

REWIND BUTTON, ANYONE?

Greetings, Cool Peeps:

You know, there isn't a day that goes by when I don't think about how technology has vastly changed the way we do everything. I won't even try to give a brief mention to everything (both positive and negative) that has come from a recent technological advance. So, I just have one question: with all of the "stuff" that has been invented, why hasn't someone figured out how to make a rewind button?

Do you know how many miserable situations could just be avoided if we could ...

SUMMER READING SPECIAL!

SUMMER READING SPECIAL! From now until June 6th, I'm offering the Kindle edition of my YA novel, "Squalor, New Mexico" for only .99. This oddly titled book takes place in east coast suburbia during the 70s, and is the story of how lies and secrets can fracture a family, especially with the passage of time. While this is classified as a Young Adult novel, it is for people of all ages. :-)
