Authors Read is a new radio show that allows authors, storytellers, and poets to read from their published work. Radio show host, Lillian Brummet, is welcoming applications from authors, poets, and storytellers who would like to appear as guests. Maybe you should be on the show, too!
I remember hearing my grandparents talk about about the days when folks would sit around the radio in the family parlor and listen to story hour. Even in a day when electronics have inundated our lives, one radio host reaches into the past to bring a storytelling favorite back to the future. You will have to listen on your computer, but the Authors Read concept is the same—authors entertaining those who love to hear a good story.
The show is already booked through July with a variety of genres and authors included on the schedule.
July 11: Connie Arnold (poet and children's author)
July 12: Award-winning author Yvonne Perry was Lillian’s guest on Conscious Discussions last May, at which time she talked about her freelance writing business. She will be reading a humorous excerpt from her book Email Episodes: A Hilariously Honest Look at Life. See www.blogtalkradio.com/AuthorsRead for a preview.

I appreciate the opportunity she is giving me and other authors through Authors Read.”
