Guest (1881-1959) was named Poet Laureate through Senate Concurrent Resolution No. 38 (1952) of the Michigan Legislature. Guest held the title of Poet Laureate of the state of Michigan from 1952 until his death in 1959. Will Carleton (1847-1912) is sometimes referred to as the first Poet Laureate of Michigan. Public Act 51 of 1919 designated October 21 of each year as "Carleton Day" in memory of "Michigan's pioneer poet." However, "Carleton Day" was a commemorative school holiday in honor of Carleton as opposed to an appointed poet laureate title. "Carleton Day" was removed as a school holiday in 1995 as directed by Public Act 289 during a revision of the state of Michigan's school code.

He currently resides in Dallas with his wife and two cats. He is the middle child. Mark & Jeff are his older and younger brothers. Brian recently released his fiction debut, a legal thriller entitled “The Ambulance Chaser”. After being accused of the murder of a high school classmate thirty years prior, lawyer Jason Feldman becomes a fugitive to find the one person who can prove his innocence and save his abducted son. The Ambulance Chaser opened as the #1 selling debut paperback thriller! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Pittsburgh personal injury lawyer and part-time drug dealer Jason Feldman’s life goals are simple: date hot women, earn enough cash to score cocaine on a regular basis, and care for his dementia-ravaged father. That all changes when a long-lost childhood friend contacts him about the discovery of buried remains belonging to a high school classmate who went missing thirty years prior, and the fragile life Jason’s built over his troubled past is about to come crashing down.

The only way he’ll survive is if he overcomes his addictions so he can face his childhood demons. Brian’s best-selling book, The Addicted Lawyer, Tales of The Bar, Booze, Blow, & Redemption is an unflinching look back at how addiction and other mental health issues destroyed his career as a once-successful lawyer and how he and others in the profession redefined their lives in recovery and found redemption.

“Despite The Buzz” Love, Family & Michigan/California Living Featuring Novelist Tamara Miller Davis

This Episode is so Special to me! The Finale of Season 2 of “The Duke Lott Show” Honored and Privileged we are to share this Podcast Episode with you! So Grateful to Interview such a wonderful, talented Human. I admire her many talents and we both share a Love of Northern Michigan & Traverse City Michigan! You don’t wanna miss this opportunity to hear such an amazing inspirational conversation about her book “Despite The Buzz”, Writing, Creating, Diversity, Social Media, Family & More. Tamara Miller Davis is an indie author, married mother, substitute teacher, and U.S. Coast Guard veteran. Tamara grew up in Michigan and resides in California. Once upon a time, she performed on stage via USA Today’s Storytellers Project. Tamara is a member of the Writers and Publishers Network, Women's National Book Association, and Ventura County Mom Collective. Her realistic novel, Despite the Buzz, has won awards for contemporary romance and literary fiction at thebookfest.com. “Despite the Buzz" is a cautionary tale concerning tech’s toll upon learning, relationships, safety, and wellbeing. The colorful paperback was thoughtfully designed and independently published. The artful story is educational and exciting! A new high school teacher (from the Midwest) raises awareness about screen use inside her writing classroom; meanwhile contemporary communication dramatically impacts the plot and diverse Californian characters. When an intimate act is shared over social media, the resulting incident demonstrates the powerful potential in students’ pockets. By depicting demands upon teachers and providing understanding to those who grew up before current trends, this multi-generational book aims to build rapport among people from different schools of thought. The realistic and romantic fiction is recommended for readers over 14 years of age. https://www.despitethebuzz.com/ Website: https://www.despitethebuzz.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/despitethebuzz Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tamaramillerdavis Instagram: #despitethebuzz Goodreads: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/58341719-despite-the-buzz LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/tamara-davis-094499238 Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/author/tamara-miller-davis_2021

Living or Existing? “The 3 R’s” Growth, Mindset Shift Featuring CEO of INFRARED VISION Mesha Mebane

You don’t wanna miss this opportunity to hear so much wisdom, knowledge, understanding & insightful information. In this episode we talk Growth, Mindset Shift and “The 3 R’s” Such a wonderful episode, family laughs and reflection time! A Must Listen Podcast! Episode 12 of Season 2 featuring the Talented Mesha Mebane, Founder and CEO of INFRARED VISION, is on a mission to change the mindset of the 40+ community from FIXED to GROWTH, empowering them to feel they are truly LIVING, not just EXISTING. Utilizing, her proprietary Visionprint strategies, she transforms her clients through the process to Redefine, Rebuild, and Restore® their mindset and live their best life. INFRARED VISION was born out of Mesha’s personal pain, confusion, and passion to achieve the best version of herself. After the loss of her only child, inability to conceive again, several layoffs resulting in a career re-invention, divorce, and financial and personal challenges, she spent years aimlessly going through the motions with no optimism, goals, or direction for the future. She realized that her full potential was more than she was physically doing. She was no longer LIVING - just EXISTING. At 43, she had a revelation. She was no longer going to continue with the life she was leading. It was time to smell the roses and see the beauty in them again. It wasn’t easy, but she discovered a clear, precise, and laser focused vision to overcome adversity in a more strategic, organized, and authentic manner. She now shares this with others and masterfully creates a Visionprint for clients to Redefine, Rebuild, and Restore® their mindset and life. Mesha is ready to help you create your own INFRARED VISION. Visit Mesha and INFRARED VISION at www.infraredvision.org or you can reach her on LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/in/ms-mesha-r-mebane-7a69557a
