This Weekend’s Walking Tours of Historic Downtown Los Angeles
The Last Bookstore Presents….
The Secret Lives of Historic Downtown Los Angeles
Saturdays will have the HISTORIC DOWNTOWN LOS ANGELES 101 tour and Sunday will have the HOW LOS ANGLES INVENTED THE WILD WEST (and why no one knows it) tour.
On Saturday February 25th and Sunday February 26th (and Saturday March 3rd and Sunday March 4th) will be two different guided walking tours of Historic Downtown Los Angeles’s secret past, its present – and its future.
Our friend, Janet Wilcox, will be starting her UCLA Extension voiceover class again in just a week. If you are interested in getting started in the industry, this could be the class for you. I will be speaking to her class about New Media this session, as I have done in the past.
Do people say you have a wonderful voice? Gain a comprehensive understanding of the tools needed to excel in TV and radio commercials, animation, narration for documentaries, and other areas of voice over work. Instruction includes breath and microphone technique, script analysis, finding characters spontaneously, and how to keep it fun, even when the pressure’s on. Participants also learn how to pursue a career in voice over.
Writer, producer, and actor with extensive experience on both sides of the microphone. Ms. Wilcox has written and produced promos for HBO, ABC, and The History Channel, among others. As a voice over talent, she has been heard on Lifetime, HBO, E!, Cinemax, and AMC. She is the author of Voiceovers: Techniques and Tactics for Success.
The whole family participated in this annual live reading yesterday and here is the recording of that event. We had a great time, as always, reading, noshing, joshing and laughing.
I have been using another, similar recipe for a while now, but wanted a recipe that allowed me to make it larger volumes. I will probably tweak this recipe to add back anything missing from my current one, now that I have some proportions to use as a guide.

July 4th 2011- Live your Liberty, don’t lose it in a History Book
Keri and I invite you again to listen to the three live dramatic “radio play” podcasts based upon letters and documents from the lead up to the American Declaration of Independence. You can hear readings from our nation’s past which directly reflect upon our nation’s present and future.
We began these series of live dramatized readings three years ago as our Nation approached it’s “birthday”. It struck us that the situations and the causes of the American Revolution were as alive today as they had been to our countries’ forefathers.
Tani, a new pup on Santa Cruz Island, has just been born.
Follow her adventures moment by moment via Twitter and Facebook. This is a great way to school kids to learn more about this endangered species that only live right here in their own California backyard!
