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!

Luckily, the Podcasting Track recorded everything anyway. So for the next little while I’ll be putting up the audio from the panels I think are useful to writing, podcasting your work, etc.

It’s going to take me a while to get to the recordings from the other panels because they will have to possibly be edited then approved by the people on the panels. :) But there some good stuff about urban fantasy and writing with some awesome authors.

This first panel I’m putting up is Podcasting for Promotion. It is one of the panels that I was on. Here’s the description:

This interview is with Tee and Philippa as they prepare for their release of their books to Amazon on 08.08.08

It’s amazing the number of things that can happen over night. :) So here’s a run down. Please keep in mind I’m running on low sleep so this may being incomprehensible, hard to follow, zany, etc.

SO…..last night I did two amazing interviews back to back cause I’m insane like that. The first was with PG Holyfield, followed up with Mur Lafferty and then I got them to both get on the line for a couple mins of spontaneous chat. I had a great time and both of them were increadibly nice as well as seriously helpful. Right now I’ve managed to slate so many interviews that my plan is to get the interviews in the can and work on them one at a time. This way the people I’ve asked for interviews don’t think I’ve forgotten them. :) I don’t want to flood the feed with just interviews so I may space them out…but that just means I’ll need to get off my butt and either write (which I plan to do) or discuss something interesting in between.

I’ve changed the sidebar a bit. I took down the polls because not many people were taking them. I think I’ll repost them in blog posts and give them a category for anyone who comes to the site. You’re comments, questions, and suggestions are really important to me and very valuable so please feel free to give your opinion if you find the time. :) Speaking of polls, I would love to know how many people read the blog as well as listen to the podcast. I’m trying to decide if I should make seperate feeds for both or just keep it in one feed so that info would be helpful. Feel free to just leave a quick comment here if you’d like to answer.

Also changed on the sidebar is the “recent comments” section. This will help you see if there are threads going on to any of the posts you might like to voice an opinion on. I also added a donation button to the side. I do not expect donations. :) But I will welcome any help keeping the site/podcast running.

In voice acting news, I sent in an audition and recieved an email asking me to audition for another character as well, which was way cool. And lastly, I just found out last night that I will speaking at 11am at PodcampNYC 2.0 on “Podcasting for Authors”. So um…wish me luck! :) I’ll be taking my ipod and mic and recording it so you’ll all get to hear how it goes.
