I was thinking about what to have for dinner a few nights back when Chris Miller pinged me on Skype — would I like to be a guest on the Secret Lair podcast, like, right now?
I grabbed a beer, headed into my office, switched on the microphone and joined Chris, co-host Kris Johnson and fellow guest Thomas “Cmdln” Gideon for a great discussion on “Free,” neo-patronage and the state of podcast fiction. This was a few days before I wrote my blog post on the subject, and spending time with these gentlemen really helped focus my thoughts.
Now you can listen to our meeting of the minds! And heck, don’t stop there — be sure to subscribe to The Secret Lair in iTunes or the podcast client of your choice!

For the fourth time, I’ve had the pleasure of being a guest on the Dead Robots’ Society podcast. Justin, Terry and Ryan are always great fun, and do a great job of balancing good questions with a nice dose of the goofy. In fact, this time around, we even managed to keep most of the goofy in check! Mostly.
The topic for the discussion is on creating a web presence, personal brand and author platform. We cover options on web sites, the use of Twitter, Facebook and other social networks, best practices and the importance of keeping perspective once you start building an audience in a particular niche.
Enjoy the show (MP3 link), and be sure to subscribe to the Dead Robots’ Society podcast!

Today, in the third episode of J.C. Hutchins’ Beta Clone Army Update podcast (where he talks about promotion and progress of his “7th Son” series of novels, including “7th Son: Descent”), I was outed. I am John Smith, the journeyman folk-rock singer who, it just so happens, is also one of seven human clones.
Almost a year ago, author J.C. Hutchins came to me with the idea to create a mini-album of songs presented with the conceit that they were written, performed and recorded by John Smith, a fictional character from “7th Son: Descent.” The songs would by used to promote the October 2009 paperback release of “7th Son: Descent.”
Now, you can hear the whole story through a conversation between J.C. Hutchins and myself on his latest Beta Clone Army podcast. The interview begins at the 35 minute mark!

My friend, author, podcaster and musician James Durham, just launched a new podcast to supplement his excellent podcast novel “FETIDUS – The Damned Heir.” The Unmortem Report is an interview and discussion show, and I’m very pleased and quite frankly honored to have been the first guest!
Now, James and I speak on the phone (or Skype or what have you) infrequently, but when we do, we tend to go on for a while. When we talked in the official capacity for this interview, that pattern held. However, the Unmortem Report is intended to be a fifteen to twenty minute podcast, and we gabbed for much longer than that.
Solution? The “edited for time” version of the interview is about twenty five minutes long and can be found at James’ site and in the feed for his podcast. This bonus episode of Sonitotum features the “director’s cut” of the interview — over seventy minutes of conversation!
We get into some fun stuff about my creative process and the creative process in general. I had a blast! You will, too, I think. If you enjoy this episode, please consider subscribing to James Durham’s FETIDUS – The Damned Heir podcast novel and his Unmortem Report, included in the same feed.
