“Chatting with Betsy<\/a>” has a delightful new interview with me, “Journeying Through Life’s Synchronicities.”\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The previous interview I did with her bounced all the way toVienna, where it sparked the plan to found a Gonzofest Vienna – whose first event then fizzled and started percolating in Dublin, Ireland. But it was a tall lift to find an untaken venue in Dublin on that short notice.<\/p>\n

So we luckily were offered Garden District Book Shop in New Orleans – Gonzofest 2025. Putting GF Europe on hold, we are considering Italy 2026. Meanwhile, we have a tremendous lineup of talent ready to jump in a plane. More on this New Orleans event at its website<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n
We reflect on the unpredictability of life’s twists and turns, sharing personal anecdotes of remarkable synchronicities. Additionally, Margaret delves into her latest revised-edition book, BEYOND 3-D: KEEP THIS QUIET<\/a>!<\/em> III, discussing its inspiration and the transformative potential of her LuminEsscence Light Body work courses in facilitating spiritual growth and emotional healing.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Margaret also recommends THE HELL’s ANGELS<\/strong> LETTERS: Hunter S. Thompson, Margaret Harrell, and THE MAKING of AN AMERICAN CLASSIC<\/em>, available on norfolkpress.com<\/a><\/b>. This interview provides a captivating glimpse into Margaret A. Harrell’s diverse body of work and the eagerly anticipated International Gonzofest.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n
\n
This comes on the heels of another remarkable interview – <\/a>with Hunter Gatherers podcast world-class interviewers: Christopher Tidmore and Curtis Robinson. They write:<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

She was Hunter S. Thompson’s first book editor, helping craft the Hells Angels<\/em> book. She was also a friend and, as readers of her book Keep This Quiet!<\/em> know, “special friend.” Some even say she was a muse at the most critical time of his career… she certainly pulls no punches during a live interview from Louisville.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Being interviewed by people that gifted, you cannot help but come up with fascinating material. I am grateful that they pulling me aside at the July 2021 Gonzofest in Louisville for an impromptu interview. (Planned by them.)<\/p>\n

Also, recently, before that, did my first Interviewed with Betsy Wurtzel<\/a><\/p>\n

on Passionate World Talk Radio. It was a lot of fun and roamed over many of the topics I’m most interested in. Betsy wrote:<\/p>\n

\n
I highly recommend reading Keep THIS Quiet! Too<\/em> about Margaret A. Harrell ‘s fascinating life!<\/div>\n
Please listen to my interview with Margaret A. Harrell about this book and how these 3 men helped Margaret to be fearless!<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n
And not to forget the illustrious panel<\/a>–no exaggeration–recorded for Wonderland Book Club by Alice Osborn.<\/div>\n
