I’ve been struggling to decide what to do with Get Published. My writing demands (on my time) have been growing over the past couple years and, since no one seems to be willing to increase the number of hours in the day, I’ve had to start prioritizing my projects. A number of factors are telling me it is time to end Get Published. What they are isn’t important. What is important is knowing when it is time to end the show. I have had a lot of positives from the show. I’ve met many terrific people and learned a lot of great things related to writing. In fact, I can directly attribute my first story sales to the podcast.

Get Published Episode 157 – Chris Hite and Dimensional Abscesses
Here we are. The final episode before summer hiatus. Today’s show will be different from every show before in that the interview is solely conducted by my publishing partner and Get Published associate producer, Jeffrey Hite.

One of the really fun things about the anthology Dimensional Abscesses is that Jeff Hite and I have one more reason to talk to a lot of interesting people. One of those people is JR Murdock. I’m sure you recognize Jay’s name; he has been on the show several times before. And, be forwarned, you will hear from him very soon as we begin the work of promoting our collaboration, Jack Kane and the Statue of Liberty. But that discussion is for another day. Today we are talking about his contribution to the anthology. His story is pretty unique in a book full of unique stories. We talk about his inspiration and a few other things. It was a fun […]
