Podcast Episode #9

My name is Naomi Shibles and I’m here to tell you Why I Need This Author Gig.

With each episode, I’ll share a little bit about my writing journey, sprinkled with some anecdotes so that we can share a laugh.

In this episode, I cover:

• Next steps to my authoring empire

• The seeds of musical obsession

• The Legendary King of Ska

• Flaky friends and pay phones

UPDATE: The name of the hotel that I reference in this episode is, indeed, The Catamaran Resort on Mission Bay in San Diego, California. I couldn’t find anything about live music still being performed there, but they do still have the champagne brunch! 🥂
