Only a week til her book comes out but I did it!! So here is my interview with the lovely goddess herself! There are plenty of links to write down so keep your ears open.

As promised I am including a link to Seth Harwood’s “Young Janius” which you can get right here!! I hear it’s awesome – me and my writing schedule don’t allow for such fun things like reading! :P

Also if you haven’t heard I’ve created a place for people who LOVE speculative fiction (this is the wiki link definition) to find their favorite authors and works they might not know about as well as new authors called The Speculative Fiction Database or Specficdb.com for short! So if you are craving fiction go take a look. We’re adding new people everyday. You don’t even have to be IN PRINT….podcasts and epub count! It’s only 1$ to list yourself if you are an author (with a spot in the listing for your stories and books and other goodies to you) – so just go do it already!

If you’d like to be put on the mailing list newsletter (your email will be kept confidential and not sold) sign up here!

I appear on two different sites this month. The first is NOT SAFE FOR WORK. I read the narration and played Zia in the latest Erotica Ala Carte, The Will of the Gods,  written by Terry Mixon from the Dead Robot’s Society. Again, it’s an erotic story and not safe for children or for playing at work.

I also spoke over at The Dead Robot’s Society, a great podcast on writing. I spoke with the guys about voice acting.

Enjoy!

Now before you go EWWW and head off somewhere else…Stella makes a compelling arguement for her book and her shifters. Even I found myself really interested in this new type of “monster”. So give her a chance.

As a special bonus, she is giving away her 3 series novella in e-book form to a lucky TaleChasing commenter. All you have to do is leave a comment to be entered into the contest to win this series. NOTE: This series is very erotic and for adults. Please keep that in mind when you enter.

And now…WereSnakes!

Sadly I don’t have time to do a proper show notes. There are a huge number of links that I just don’t have the ability to get up right now. So either someone can be nice and do a comments and list/link them or when I get back I will add them. :) The file also is missing some of the ID3 tags. That will be fixed later as well. ;)

This is a GREAT episode. I hope you enjoy it and get as much as I did out of it. I also want to thank Wndr Wolf from Wander Radio (no time to link sorry) for doing the edits. He helped me get this out to you. :) Do something nice for him like track him down on google.

Love Kimi
