12 SIMPLE STEPS TO LOVING LIFE is Released
by Christina Mancuso - Nov 11, 2015


Robert Radcliffe announced today that his latest book '12 Simple Steps to Loving Life' - a guide to making one's life more loving, happy, and peaceful - is now available for sale. 'If you desire a more compassionate and healthy approach to life's most challenging moments, then this is the perfect book for you. 12 Simple Steps is an adaptation of the Twelve Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous and is intended to be a quick read with results that will last a lifetime,' says Robert. After seven years of considerable struggle, at the age of twenty-two, Robert made the choice to be sober from drugs and alcohol by applying the Twelve Steps, enabling him to turn his life around and as a result, his life, his recovery and self-improvement have led to his massive success spiritually and financially. Robert went from being a homeless drug addict to a self-made millionaire by the age of thirty. Millions of people worldwide, including Dr. David R. Hawkins, established therapist and author of 'Power vs. Force: The Hidden Determinants of Human Behavior,' have called the Twelve Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous the most beneficial self-improvement program in history. Eternally grateful to everyone who helped him become and remain sober, Robert felt compelled to write 12 Simple Steps to Loving Life, a book that adapts the Twelve Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous in a way that everyone can benefit from, not just those struggling with addiction. Robert hopes that his story and these steps will inspire and help others to find their own success. To learn more or to purchase a copy of the book, go to http://www.12simplesteps.com/. Robert resides happily with his wife Tara in Malibu, CA. He is a philanthropist, active community member, and continues to be an active participant in the twelve-step community.

Bill Sanner Pens Memoir on Veteran's Life Under the Sea
by Christina Mancuso - Nov 9, 2015


A survey by Blue Star Families found that 90 percent of military members believe the general public doesn't understand the sacrifices made by service members and their families. But one US Navy veteran is determined to change that. These days, Bill Sanner is a Dallas-based computer tech business owner and prolific singer/songwriter, but he's making waves with a new memoir of his years aboard a Navy submarine, the USS H.L. Stimson, during the 1970s. Sanner says, 'Submariners make this place a safer world, but their own world is mysterious, intriguing and interesting, too. While full of fun and lighthearted pleasure, dealing with the angst of leaving loved ones for long periods of time without any communication whatsoever makes for an amazing life.' It's obvious from the title that The Sub-Par Adventures of Snakebite & Stonefinger (the Navy nicknames of Sanner and his best service buddy, Smitty), now available at Amazon.com, is not your standard military bio, filled with epic battles and high-level war strategy. Yet a reviewer for the Stimson Draft submariners' newsletter raved that he 'could not put it down' and declared it a 'must-have.' That's because this moving and hilarious memoir (co-written with Sanner's friend, writer and Eclectus Records recording artist Laura Ainsworth) captures day-to-day military life as experienced by countless young enlistees and their families. The lifelong friendships formed in minutes at boot camp; the pranks ('rig jobs') that make regimented military life bearable; the everyday frustrations with what Sanner calls 'Navy nincompoopery,' and the struggles shared by young sailors and their families, as they cope with separation, loneliness, low pay, even pregnancy and childbirth, while separated by half a planet and the depths of the ocean. Filled with dozens of never-before-published submarine photos and drawings from the 1970s, the book gives the reader a rare behind-the-scenes look at how submarines actually work (did you know they can make their own air?) and how the crews manage to work in cramped quarters and outer space-like isolation for months on end without going crazy 'while serving America in a submerged sewer pipe.' Sanner believes the key is to maintain a sense of humor. Along with family dramas and fascinating tech details, the book offers many laugh-out-loud stories, ranging from 'surfing seagulls' to the night Sanner inadvertently shattered every glass in his barracks with his stereo. But he and his comrades were Christian family men, so Sanner says that unlike Hollywood depictions of military life, 'Our hijinks were good, clean fun. You can safely let your kids read this.' The book has been cheered by the submarine community (Sanner and Ainsworth are already booked for next year's Stimson Reunion in Charleston, South Carolina), but it is also an entertaining and engrossing read for all veterans and military families, as well as those curious about the true-life stories of the extraordinary men and women who protect America and the sacrifices made by those who love them.

BWW Review: Iannone Uncovers Edwin Booth's Life at Theater RED's World Premiere
by Peggy Sue Dunigan - Aug 19, 2015


Milwaukee's TheateRED begins their 2015-2016 season titled 'We All Have Blood On Our Hands,' with a World Premiere written by one of the city's acclaimed actors and directors, Angela Iannone. Iannone constructs a play, The Seed of Banquo, based on the historical facts of American theater great Edwin Booth, and yes, also the brother of the infamous John Wilkes Booth. Edwin Booth opened a theater with his namesake in 1888, and then directed, designed and starred in the plays he choose to produce. In Iannone's The Seeds of Banquo, his historical and personal stage design, prompt book and blocking were used to recreate Booth's original production, including the stage back drop, while she intermingles Booth's personal life to the point where lines in Shakespeare's Macbeth might easily be quoted by the individual Booth regarding his own relections.
