Mik Murdoch, Boy superhero is almost ready for the Advanced Reader Copies to go out. I’m busy proofing the galley right now. In fact, I stopped working on it to get this episode ready for you.

Submissions are open until May 31. We have some good submissions so far, but we need more. If you are interested, check out http://madscientistanthology.wordpress.com/.

Get Published Episode 63 – John Mierau, Creative Force
John Mierau is a wordsmith, a story teller, a scifi and fantasy hack not to mention, first and foremost, a family man.

I also wanted to give you all an update on my book’s progress. As you […]

J Daniel Sawyer is a gifted writer, podcaster and all around interesting fellow. I was lucky enough to meet him at Balticon this year during my first pilgrimage and I’ve wanted to get him on the show ever since. Well, the waiting is over. I talked to Dan about writing, marketing and all sorts of other good things and today I share that discussion with you. You may hear some things that surprise you but isn’t that what this show is all about? 🙂 In the feedback section of the show, I talk about my NaNoWriMo journey this year. Some successes, some incompletes and even a couple disappointments. Thanks for listening. Show Notes 00:00 — Opening – Get Published Episode […]
