Spring of 1968. Vietnam war was exploding, the students were protesting and Martin Luther King is assassinated. In the midst of these tragic events, Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell reunite to make what I feel is their greatest hit, ‘Ain’t Nothing Like The Real Thing’.

As a writer and teacher, who’s primary goal is to educate our youth in interpreting the world, it’s great when a student, who has read my book, gets it and puts their own spin on what I wrote. Here a High School pupil in Brooklyn, reads her essay on my novel, Brooklyn Story:

I am blessed to have been born into the greatest music ever created. I’m always bragging about the great Detroit Motown music of the 60’s. But the fantastic Philadelphia sound of the 70’s was just as amazing. Case in point: Stop, Look, Listen (To Your Heart) by the Stylistics.

I appeared on the Funky Writer Show.  I first went on it almost a year ago. Since then, I’ve learned a lot.  Surely there wouldn’t be any problems. Would there?  You can find out on my blog: anthonyaddis.co.uk/?p=2467   #writingpodcast #inideauthor #writinglife #podcasts
