This week
on Chatting With Sherri we chatted with Cosplay Diva Cathy Kutz, we had a lot fun talking about
fandom and costumes. We also talked about how she created the different costumes and how
she came up with her inspirations. We had a lot of wonderful feed back on this one opening people’s eyes to a new area of creativity! Listen in; .
This Tuesday Chatting With Sherri will chat with author Lee Phillips about her book Child Of The Land! Lee Phillips couldn’t ignore a headline in the South China Morning Post that read “Children Condemned to Die”. Much to her horror, the article detailed the conditions of Chinese orphanages were abandoned children often 
ended up in “dying rooms.” For Phillips, it was a call to action. She ventured to the Chinese city of Zhaoqing, where she climbed the stairs of a prison-like, cement building. On the fourth floor, she entered a world unlike any other. The orphanage smelled of urine and feces. The eyes of the abandoned children haunted Phillips. But one child touched her heart more than the others – a girl named Yu Yan – Phillips was determined to adopt her. For Phillips-and the girl-the odyssey was just beginning. http://www.blogtalkradio.com/rithebard/2015/08/25/chatting-with-sherri
