Hey there! Welcome to ‘Get Published’. I’m your host, Mike Plested. I have long believed that persistence is the key to getting your work published. I have also said that the journey to getting published can be a long one. Today’s guest proves both those little kernals of wisdom.

We have the stories procured […]

I have made several commitments to various people, the one coming up soonest being the completion of edits and polishing of Mik Murdoch: Crisis of Conscience. I’ve got to say, I’m really happy with the way this […]

150 Episodes. We have had quite a journey together thus far, haven’t we? Since I started podcasting I have had two novels released, podcast two novels and edited an anthology. How about you? How has your life changed since we started down this road? As you probably know, Jeff Hite and I are working together on an anthology titled, Dimensional Abscesses.

When he was done with his story, he was so happy with the character he decided to write a full-length novel. Jeff and I talk about his story, the anthology and his resulting book ideas as well as […]
