Host, Beem Weeks
Twitter: @BeemWeeks & @VoiceOfIndie
Bio: My name is Beem Weeks, a 40-something-year-old indie author of several short stories, poems, essays, and the historical fiction/coming-of-age novel, Jazz Baby. I have recently released a short story collection entitled Slivers of Life. A divorced father of two grown children, I have lived in Florida and Georgia, though I now call Michigan home. I have been writing since childhood. As a teenager and young adult, I wrote concert and record reviews for a small publication. Journalism had been my intended field, but all that changed with the publication of a short story that eventually led to my first novel. I enjoy indie films, loud music, and a well-told story.

I couldn’t listen to the live show, but I listened to the archived show a few minutes after the live show ended. I enjoyed the show very much! You sound like great fun, Wendy! We actually have a lot in common! Love animals, nature and all the outdoor stuff. ‘Tails’ has had quite a long and tough journey. I’m glad it’s finally out! It sounds like a fascinating story! Beem is a fun host and the two of you make a great team. I’m definitely adding ‘Tails’ to my TBR list. Congratulations on all your awards, Wendy! You’re a very talented and impressive writer.

Thank you Natalie.
And thank you jinlobify. What is so lovely & welcome about your observation is that it is true, to an extent, as I still face some sadness & struggle in changing a life long in play. The beautiful irony is that many in my inner circle expressed shock when I made the decision to end my marriage , expressing all had “seemed” well & good in my life. So, even though still a sadness in the challenges, there is great gratitude to have embraced an intimacy & authenticity in my life with everything that surrounds me & everyone in it. That is the happiest ending of all as I stay true to myself & look forward to more icing on the cake as well! Thank you so much for your kind support!
