• Kerry Dashnaw: Yearning To Be Free- Life as a Nun

  Our choices after high school usually lean towards college or gaining experience in some way that will lead us towards our purpose. Meet Kerry Dashnaw whose teen curiosity and naivety led her to choose the life of a Nun. Little did she know that choice would lead to fourteen years of self-doubt and times of deep unhappiness. All she wanted to do was honor God. After many years, Kerry found the strength to share her story with us. Listen in as she shares her writing experience along with a little bit about her time in a convent. You'll need to read the book to hear, "the rest of the story".

• The Year: 2470. Technology Hasn't Progressed Since the 1900's-A SciFi Novel by Austin Vasquez

  Here is an example of what J.K. Rowling did. One woman gave millions of people, young and old, the power of the written word. It's mind blowing when you think of her impact. One woman. She gave people of all backgrounds a sense that anyone is capable of creating worlds and stories. So, no excuses, pull out the number two or the keyboard and get started!

• A 96-year-old Cantankerous Writer and Ex-Navy Captain S. Martin Shelton

  Grit. Or as he calls himself, just plain old cantankerous. Either way, what he has accomplished in 96 years far exceeds what most of us will experience in our own lives. This one is longer than usual. Out of respect for this man's service to our country and the fact that he reminds us of wars and why we were in them in the first place, I decided to keep our conversation as is. I believe everyone who listens will leave with a sense of wonderment for what men and women have done for us for years, fight and die for our freedom. You will also hear about his newer career as a writer. The career that really started when he was in his seventies. HOME | Shelton-Comm
