His conversational manner puts the visitor across the kitchen table from him with a coffee in hand, making your experience at once relaxing and provocative.” - Les Blough, editor, Axis of Logic: Finding Clarity in the 21st century mediaplex Ancient Chinese pictograph for “Compliant, Favorable,” from images meaning: “going with the river and managing to keep one’s head” i.e. going with the flow.  ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ As the title suggests, along with the encouragement to explore what  literature and other forms of verbal presentation do not say but imply,  there will be more to “Between the Lines” than literature; each episode’s topic will inevitably branch out into other areas connected  with world affairs and the “evolution o’ consciousness,” as Wiggs Dannyboy called it in one of the best novels of our times, Jitterbug Perfume, by Tom Robbins. A minute ago this writer was not planning to cite that  book, it just ‘came to mind’ when figuring how to describe one of the aims of the show. Which brings up writing tip #1: Some of the best (or  at least most fun) bits get ‘created’ by simply allowing yourself to write freely, not hold back, free associate, and enjoy the process; it’s like getting between the lines of your own head so as to tap your  subconscious, higher consciousness, and allow the muses, or whatever you call those mysterious forces and juices, to work with you. Also planning to have occasional interviews as part of the show. Technical note: Depending on your browser settings, you may need to save and download the file.
