I know, radical idea, right?  Anyway I’m going to try to post here about once a week with my progress on Stolen Time, thoughts about writing, or whatever else tickles my fancy. I’ll still be releasing occasional episodes of The Time Out! Podcast, but I hope to be more frequent with these posts. Two other things happened last week and they are somewhat related: I finished my second read-through of Stolen Time, and I bought a Kindle. The relationship was that I was not allowing myselfRead More →

Podcast is back on the air!  So to speak. 🙂 In this episode I cover a little feedback for my novels: A Podiobooks review for The Guerrilla Poet by Chris A Goodreads review for Borrowed Time by Craig (a.k.a.

I took a few minutes to review what I accomplished in 2010 with my writing and podcasting, then looked forward to my plans for 2011. Podcasts or Ebooks?Read More →

I am such a bad podcaster. Bad podcaster!  Slaps self with rolled up newspaper. Once again I neglected to post the audio from the December 9, 2010 companion episode in the feed so here it is. Honestly, if I had a Delorian with a flux capacitor this kind of thing wouldn’t happen, as far as you’d know… Commentary in this episode covers story episodes 15 through 19.
