The Independent Writers' Podcast

Welcome to episode eight of The Independent Writers Podcast! Today we have "Watermelon Roundup Run" by Judge Burdon and "Fondness for Disappearances Won't Necessarily Stop the Chase. Will it?", and "I Still Think About it Whenever I See Droplets Outside My Bedside Window" by Nandinee Sharma. “Watermelon Roundup Run” - by Judge Burdon On an unseasonably cool July morning in Chicago, equivalent to Dickens' David Copperfield , Judge Burdon was born on a Friday. His mother theorized it was so he would be in time for weekend festivities. His interest in the predominance of the written word inspired his study of English Literature. He attended Universities in the United States, London and Paris , dedicating his life's scholarship to the study of Victorian Novels and Authors. His writing career to date has been devoted primarily to poetry and songwriting. He is presently engaged in finishing his book "Imitation of Myself." A non-fiction story encompassing his experiences as a drug runner for a Mexican Cartel. Judge celebrated his 65th birthday last July and lives modestly in Costa Rica. Additional work by Judge Burden was also featured on Episode 4 of The Independent Writers' Podcast. Be sure to check that out as well! "Fondness for Disappearances Won't Necessarily Stop the Chase. Will it?", and "I Still Think About it Whenever I See Droplets Outside My Bedside Window" by Nandinee Sharma Nandinee Sharma is a 20-something, fairly average girl-next-door, who'd probably think that entering through the window would provide a substantial amount of fun rather than simply walking through the front door. Her writings are purely fiction and she believes every piece of fiction has something fiction in it. She is supremely lousy when it comes to sharing things, so writing just happened. She believes we are all broken, everybody is dealing with something or the other, impactful enough in its own way, so its necessary to be a little messed up before you gather yourself and start picking up the pieces Broken can't be mended, but who said broken can't be beautiful?
