Melissa Powell Gay - Prose & Cons

What this episode covers

We all have to go on our personal odysseys for growth and money or whatever, but it's not until we return home that we see how much we've grown...or regressed. Melissa's Mount Pleasant series shows us the life and times of Iris and her father Henry after she leaves the big city lights for simpler rural times. We talked about the second book in the series "Every Now and Then" and her plans for addressing racial tension in a time where compassion amongst races seems to be waning. Ben was off larping or planting microgreens so Dom handled this biz. Give it a listen..or don't! The least you could do though is check out Melissa's work. Enjoy.

The year is 1955. Tinsel town. The land of make-believe. It's a time of growth in American prosperity. Especially in Los Angeles. Here, dreams are bought and sold. But there's a seedier side to the City of Angels, the shadows where pimps and narcotics pushers live, where organized crime stands just around every corner with one hand out, and the other wrapped around a roscoe. It's a city full of fancy dames and slick cons, where bookies know the vig, so you better, too.Some folks call it noir or pulp fiction. But for a private eye named Rex Rivetter, it's home. Music for the Prose Studio 4-88 This brand new poetry podcast began as a fun experiment between two like-minded artists who share a passion for music, verse and prose, one another's company, and the occasional Cote du Rhone. Intended to cover a variety of inspiring and compelling themes, it begins with pieces devoted to New York City, and continues on to some of the great male speeches of Shakespeare. Composer and conductor Daniela Candillari creates an original score set to recitation performed by Theatre and Film actress Kelli Ruttle.
