Time Flies

Wow… it’s almost the end of May, and I haven’t posted here in a while.
Well, in all fairness, I have been super busy… FarPoint Media is expanding at a crazy rate, and that means more websites and technical consults.
In the long run, it’s a very good thing. In the short run, I’m lacking sleep.
I’m [...]

Podcast Fiction hits the Big Time

See this article at The New York Times: Authors Find Their Voice, and Audience, in Podcasts.
Scott Sigler (Ancestor, Infection), JC Hutchins (7th Son), Tee Morris (Morevi, Billibub Baddings), and Evo Terra are all mentioned in the article, as is Podiobooks.
It’s about time someone noticed the quality offerings out there, especially since they are free for [...]

Recent happenings

The trip to World Fantasy Con was fun, informative, and productive… I think there’ll be some new FarPoint Media projects coming from that trip. It was also a lot of fun to get some of the other “So Say We All” contributors to sign their essays… I’m going to make a point of getting [...]

Planning the Summer/Fall Travel schedule

This is going to be a busy convention season for the Farpoint Media folks from The Dragon Page and Slice of SciFi.
We’re going to be doing panels and interviews at the Nebula Awards, which will be in nearby Tempe, fortunately. After that, we’re hopping all over the place.
Westercon and Comic-Con in San [...]

Audio Books Rule

I’m beginning to have a new appreciation for audio books and audio dramas. I guess that happens when you find yourself driving around a lot more than before.
If you’re into good audio stories, there are two sites that you need to check out: Steve Eley’s Escape Pod zine (paying market, btw), and Podiobooks.
I’m currently [...]

New things going on

Yeah, it’s been a while.
Things have gotten busier, with me drumming up business for myself, and doing more for the Slice of SciFi / Dragon Page Radio shows.
Getting interviews with TV and movie folks is considerably more work (and more pesterful) than getting interviews from authors, but things are starting to open up.
I’m also helping [...]

WFC 2005

Yes, I’m at WFC, and for some reason, this time around the panels I want to attend are sparse, and spread way out. This of course, means I’ll be able to spend more time in the dealer’s room and the art room, and at the two ample used bookstores that are in between the [...]

Spreading Wings

I’m going to be interviewed again on ChuckChat tonight, where the three of us will be chatting about Serenity. My only worry is they might not be able to get a word in edgewise.
I’m also discovering that the market for flash fiction (less than 1000 words) is pretty slim, especially for stories that don’t [...]

Convergences and Time

Sometimes the strangest things work out to be the very best things that could have happened.
I got the massage job I interviewed for, and the place is even better than I could have hoped for. I thought I was interviewing at a yoga and dance studio that wanted to incorporate massage, but I [...]

Firefly still flying

There’s a new podcast dedicated to the Firefly ‘verse, and it’s a fun, informative and well-produced show.
Do yourself a huge favor and check out The Signal. You’ll get some insight into characters and episodes, and a fun segment on Chinese language as used in the series.
Gee, if I’m not careful, this’ll turn into a [...]
