Finally, finally, finally, lulu.com got their act together and got “Brave Men Run”‘s ISBN registered with Books In Print. It took several weeks longer than it should have, and several rounds of chatting with their faceless but gracious (hmm, that could be a song title, no? Somebody run with it)... Read more...
Narnia Goodies Give Away
Nah, I got nothing for ya… but my virtual buddy Evo Terra and the rest of the gang at the Slice of SciFi podcast do! Check out their podcast (direct download) and while you’re at it, you might as well subscribe to it, too, right? The gist of it is,... Read more...
Lifted
Recent fortuitous events have placed me in a remarkable position… after ten years and eighty-some days with the same company, I will be quitting what I have semi-sarcastically called my Cursed Day Job on the day after Thanksgiving. Very strange. I’m alternately very nervous and out-of-my skin excited. I’ll still... Read more...
Podcast Expo Day Two
Holy crap… I don’t even know where to begin. Let’s go with first impressions again, okay? MTV can’t sell me on their bullshit, still, more, forever and ever, amen. Doug Kaye deserves your help. Some people are done doing it for themselves, and the world’s a better place because of... Read more...
Podcast Expo Day One
So, my first conference. I feel like a grown-up, kinda. Impressions: Many people… many people… still think in terms of podcasting as an entry into Old Media, like radio or major labels or whatnot.

Hello, It’s Me!
… I’ve thought about it for a long long time… Oops, wait, this isn’t a Todd Rundgren song, it’s a blog post, and long overdue at that! Yeah, it’s been a couple of weeks, almost exactly, since I’ve posted. What’s up, Matt? Well, work at the Cursed Day Job (CDJ)... Read more...
LA Podcasters Meeting
So I met some real live podcasters in the flesh today… some folks whose work I’ve listened to for the last few months. Don’t think they’ve listened to me (yet) cuz I’m kind of a small fry… but based on my Feedburner stats, that may have changed after today. It... Read more...
I Will If You Will!
It was an interesting morning at the lush and lavish studios of MWS Media. First, a sprinkler valve on the expansive and well-appointed lawn burst, leading to a few hours’ of repair work and no water for cooking or showering for the on-site staff. While waiting for pipe seal to... Read more...
Do Podcast, Feel Better
Things are not all great, but I feel happy having done another podcast. Yay, makin’ stuff! Read more...
