A New Frontier: Radio

 blog5 Barbara Ehrentreu who has a great blog for writers, Barbara’s Meanderings, very thoughtfully invited me to be interviewed by her on the Red River Writers podcast.  The interview will run live at 4 p.m. EST (3 p.m. CDT).

LIVE! Because I’m calling in at 4:00 to the show.  From my house.  My house which goes berserk at promptly 4:00 every day.

I’m thinking about doing this radio interview from my closet. I’ll let you know how that works.

Wish me luck.

    Every good wish! I think your idea of locking yourself into a closet is a good one…just make sure you can get out again!

    You’ll love it. I’ve done lots of these and they can be SO much fun, especially if the host is engaging and know how to lead without upstaging. Make sure and post your report and impressions!

    LUCK! :)
    Have fun with it! And definitely let us know how it goes!

    Oh, I can just see you holed up in the closet amongst the clothes. Can’t wait to hear how it went. Good luck!

    I hope it went well! I think LIVE is a little scary. Did they prep you with some questions, or is it all “off the cuff”?

    Marvin–I loved it more than I thought. I’ll post on it tomorrow. :)

    Crystal–Thanks so much!

    Elspeth–It was a little chaotic. Ahhh…mommyhood.

    Karen–Well, I ended up just locking my bedroom door…I figured a land line would work better than a mobile. But my daughter kept knocking on my door about 1/2-way through…

    Jemi–I had questions, but not time to prepare for them because of carpool driving! The questions came about 45 minutes before the show and I was busily driving drama class carpool. :)

    My husband has used the walk-in closet many a time to record for production. First of all, it’s acoustically perfect!

    Congrats–you are now a radio star :)

    Elizabeth–I never thought of it that way! I need to get a longer cord for my land line phone, though, to get it in the closet. I just thought the cordless might cut out or something.

    Lorel–Or something! :) It was fun, though.
