Exchanging Van Goghs

My small novella, Exchanging Van Goghs, is now available as a paperback or Kindle eBook.

Here is an excerpt: I’m a terrible gardener. My grandmother was born to garden. She touched soil and beautiful things happened. It was natural to her.…

My first official episode/show/thing as your host of Local Shakedown begins May 2! And my first official guest/performer/radical music-maker/friend stopping by the 1190 studios will be Emily Frembgen, a Colorado gem transplanted to that beautiful mess built on a trash barge known as New York City. She’ll be playing a special set with her full band The Language of Termites. Heck yes! 

Tune into Radio 1190 am on your transistor dial every Friday from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. or listen online from anywhere here.
