Trader’s Diary

With all the audio work I’m planning on doing this summer and fall, I needed to upgrade my production studio.

Apparently my email list is no longer supported here and I’ve lost access to it. I’m working to get a new list up and running. Bear with me while we fumble under the hood. [Update]: I recovered the list of addresses and I’ve installed a new list. You should be getting email from me tomorrow. [...]

Some of you might recognize the name, Justin Macumber as a member of the Dead Robot’s Society. I’ve done a couple of guest spots on there recently talking about writing in general and my work in particular. He’s also an author and has just made one of his short stories available as a chapbook.

Some of you participated in today’s Sovereign Summer Sunday event on Ustream. A few of you heard Matt Selznick read a story I created just for him, set in his Sovereign Era universe called “Mouse Mousey.” It was a pretty exciting event with names from across the podosphere dropping in to chat, hang out, and [...]

Well, I always wanted to have a big release party. People across America will be joining me in celebration today as the latest volume in the Trader’s Tales drops on Podioboks.com. I hear there’ll be be fireworks tonight. A Traders Tale from the Golden Age of the Solar Clipper : Book 4 When he graduates [...]

Sorry. I’m having problems getting this migration to go smoothly. Hang in and I’ll get it taken care off ASAP Update: I think I’ve got the holes, links, images, and uploads all put back where they belong.
