Radio talk show hostess Naz Sohni Uppal
Naz Sohni Uppal is the Radio South
Asia Friday hostess of a show called Naz at
Night that runs from 10 p.m. to midnight on World FM 101.7.
 |
| South Asian woman |
Their website promises "only
the quirky and esoteric need apply" for anyone interested in an interview
with Naz.
She has asked to interview me, as the author of SpaceHive, a middle
grade/young adult novel that takes place partially in India.
SpaceHive features
Jason Anderson, the 12-year-old Canadian protagonist, with a South Asian Muslim
young man named Aadab Ali and his Hindu girlfriend Iodine. Aadab speaks Urdu
and some of that language is included in the novel.
It's a multicultural and
multinational story with a moral that the world is a "global village"
(thanks, Canadian philosopher/educator
Marshall McLuhan).
If indeed the interview takes place
as planned and is aired, I presume the listeners will be South Asian and other
cultures with a world view, and will generate interest in SpaceHive, especially
with my Indian and Pakistani readers, whom I have been trying to cultivate quite
unsuccessfully.
I look forward to meeting Naz Sohni
Uppal and chatting before the actual interview takes place.
I'll try to be "quirky and
esoteric."

Who I am and having FUN
New posts scheduled
I scheduled 4 new posts for June 14, 18, 21 and 25.
I've tweeted several times for old posts on Hootsuite for various days from now until June 27 when I come back.
Plan to have FUN
Thanks, my good friend Judi, for suggesting I simply have FUN and I presume that's carte blanche to do what I want to.
Because anyone who knows me, knows that I wouldn't hurt anyone while having FUN and doing what I want to!
Who am I?
Judi also suggested that I try to be more like me. That means finding out who I am.
Can anyone help?
I
