--Trigger Warnings: discussions of nudist lifestyle, sex/sexuality, and losing a child to su!c!de. Bleeped words: Se*ual, su!c!de. (We may be overly cautious but we prefer to err on the side of caution in some episodes to make sure podcast distribution sites do not automatically drop an interview due to certain keywords)--
Hello My Happy People,
Jelaine Lombardi has lived a life with which very few can identify. Her list of identifiers include being a wife and a mother. She was a Newborn ICU nurse for thirty-two years. She is a passionate horsewoman and has been so her entire life. She is a First Mate, an artist, and a writer, but one thing that truly makes Jelaine unique is the fact she was raised as a nudist.
This began as a weekend family activity when she was just 15 months old until her parents bought their own South Florida nudist park when she was seven. She lived as a nudist until she was eighteen. In her book, Running Around Naked, A Memoir, Jelaine shares stories from her childhood that cover an array of situations and stories that range from hysterically funny to somewhat disturbing.
Jelaine is quick to point out that she does not speak for all nudists and emphasizes that she did not write her book to persuade or deter anyone from being a nudist. She just wanted to share her story.
Having retired from healthcare, Jelaine is now focusing on her writing career. She is revisiting her childhood and sharing her memories through various creative outlets of poetry, short stories, and books. She also wrote a memoir for one of her rescue horses, Abby’s Tale: Memoir of a Rescued Horse, with plans to write memoirs for more of her horses. She is currently working on another memoir for herself focusing on another part of her life. Find out more from the author herself, just click the purple microphone below to listen now.
Enjoy,
Dianne

The My Manic Life Video from this week was eaten by my phone so I quickly made this one tonight to give you something with the updates for this week. Enjoy ...
Want to help keep Book Banter Podcast and Magazine running while I take time off to have shoulder surgery in a few weeks? You can do that by buying a copy of Book Banter Magazine or just buy us a coffee. I do not make money profits from any of our Book Banter Productions. This has been a very expensive hobby, but we are in the process of trying to turn it into a real business. If you want to help keep us going while I have surgery, you can just click the link below and buy us a coffee or click the Book Banter Magazine ad below that to buy your digital issue of Book Banter Magazine. Every magazine and coffee helps.
Thank you!
