    S6 E7 with Fantasy Author Kelly O'Hearn

    When Kelly O’Hearn first stepped off the train in the city of Florence, Italy, as a 20-year-old, she had the overwhelming instinct that she had been there before. In a place famous for its maze of medieval streets, O’Hearn navigated the city as if she had lived there for a lifetime. Born in New York City, O’Hearn first put her intuitive skills to work as a professional wine taster, instructor, and sommelier in the elite institutions of New York, Portugal, and Aspen. After raising her two children and enduring a personal health crisis, in 2012, she was drawn to begin reading the tarot cards, an ancient practice which does not presume to “predict the future” but offers a collection of stories, perspectives, and self-reflections that can guide one to become one’s most authentic self. O’Hearn is in high demand for her readings, with clients on every continent but Antartica. While most people were baking sourdough or riding their Pelotons during the Covid pandemic, O’Hearn used the tarot cards to channel her own past lives. Weeks of readings, all captured on video, yielded six storylines of herself as several powerful women over the millennia and around the globe: the same one soul, over time, persevering against all odds in the quest for happiness and the love of a soul mate. This time-bending saga inspired O’Hearn to conceive of a series of novels titled Arcanum. Find Kelly, her books, and Tarot bookings at https://www.arcanumtheseries.com/

    S6 E6 with Fantasy Author Gordon Frisbie

    With college degrees in wildlife biology and environmentalengineering, my professional career followed the same path with a primary focus on air quality. In other words, years and years of crunching numbers in a small cubical. My off-time has been much more interesting and fulfilling. I frequently explore the Front Range urban sprawl with canine companions wherewe've discovered little known pockets of wild happiness. Camping, fishing, and skiing have also found their way into my schedule whenever possible.   Aside from pile of technical reports, my creative writing wasmostly limited to online essays and posts on a variety of platforms. My first book, Echoes in the Stars was completed about three years ago and was inspired by adventures with my Australian shepherd Boo-boo. Echoes received a CIPA awardand a few reviews that were embarrassingly positive. A year after finishing Echoes, I began writing Farm Pond while caring for my aging mother. This book was published last July and feedback has been limited but mostly good. I’ve also started my own imprint, TFL Stories (https://tflstories.com), which is currently a sleepy enterprise with aspirations of becoming a more significant thing. I’m especially proud of the trademark which I designed and successfully registered with the USPTO. If you squint your eyes, it almost looks like a teddy bear.
