A Trader’s Tale from the Golden Age of the Solar Clipper : Book Six
When Diurnia Salvage and Transport undergoes a change in management, Captain Ishmael Horatio Wang finds himself adrift in a sea of red ink, and intrigue. He dives in only to find that he is over his head in a universe where cut-throat competition takes on an all new meaning.
What price will he pay for his Owner’s Share?
I’ve started recording. It’ll be 30 episodes total and I have no idea how long it will take. It’s a lot of words!
I need music!
I’ve permission from Tom Joad to use Larry O’Gaff
I’ve used the fiddle music of J. F. Archer before and rather fancy this Anchorachan Strathspey for Owner’s Share. He also has Garrison’s Frolic, which is a sailor’s tune from the early 1800s. Mr. Archer has a rather substantial collection at the Internet Archive. Is there one you like better than these?
I’m also listening to a whole bunch of other stuff, like this collection from Xerfa and AlionSonny.
Keep in mind that I have some rather inflexible requirements for my music. The intro must not be longer than 20 seconds — 15 is better — and I’ll probably only use the first 30 seconds and the last 60 seconds of anything I pick. That’s how long my intro and outro runs. Ideally the piece ends with a nice bump and not a slow fade, but that’s negotiable.
Have suggestions? Leave me a link in the comments.
