Script to Shelf E01

Script to Shelf is a podcast where I’m sharing my journey of writing and publishing Four Homeless Millionaires – How One Family Found Riches By Leaving Everything Behind.

Telling a story is a story in itself. You’ve got to figure out where you want to go and how you plan to get there. And the first step in any journey, is just getting out the door. In my case I wanted to tell the story of our family selling our house and spending a year traveling around the world.

I knew the story was going to be equal parts adventure, travel and family. I also knew the tone or vibe I was going for. I’m a huge fan of David Sedaris and Chuck Klosterman, both authors make me laugh out loud when I read their work, and I wanted to write a book that would do the same.

I’ve been a recording artist and producer for 20 years. So while Four Homeless Millionaires is the first book I’ve written, I’ve spent decades writing and telling stories through songs, CDs and live on stage in concert. The one constant element through all the different artistic mediums is the incredible amount of determination and dedication a storyteller has to have to tell their story their way.

So if you’re an author, writer or someone who is interested in the story behind the story, check out E01 and leave your comments below!
