A word from you means a lot… and I’m not just sucking up. Well, maybe a little bit. Because I’m standing here with my digital hat in hand, asking plaintively for your help. I’m working hard to transition my writing from a hobby to a revenue-generating venture, and in order for that to happen YOU are a vital ingredient. What I ask is simple: if you have listened to the Borrowed Time podcast, or if you have read the ebook, please take a couple of minutes and leave me a review on Amazon. Even if you bought the ebook from some other store, a reviewRead More →

This weekend the wife and I went to see the final installment of the movie version of Harry Potter. We had worked up to this by re-watching all of the movies in the couple of week prior to Deathly Hallows, Part 2 coming out. Now that I’ve seen this film, which was simply marvelous by the way, I’ve found myself reliving many of the memories surrounding Harry Potter. For one thing, it is really due to Harry Potter that I am a podcaster today. The first podcast I ever listened to was a Harry Potter-themed show called Mugglecast.
