Jennifer Rahn (The Longevity Thesis), Nina Munteanu (Darwin's Paradox), Gwen Gades (Publisher: Dragon Moon Press) and Tim Reynolds (Stand Up & Succeed) at the World Fantasy Convention 2008 in Calgary.
COOL NEWS:
"A Dragon Moon Press Podthology: The Pod Complex" is now available!
Go to the Podthology page for links to the online stores carrying it (Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Indigo, etc.)
Check out the two multi-author podcast interviews promoting the project:
I have my two first pieces of fiction published in it: Uncle Julius (my
homage to the late W.O. Mitchell) and From Anna to Yousef, written under the pen name of Alex T. Crisp.
Others authors in the anthology include: Scott Sigler, Jennifer Rahn, E.A. Zefram, Phil Rossi, J. Daniel Sawyer, Jack Mangan, Justin Macumber, JD Williams, Marie Bilodeau, Jared Axelrod, Emerian Rich, Mike Bennett & Tee Morris.
All of the stories have either been podcast or are about podcasting's present and future. Other than being cool stories, that's it for their common ground.
Tim.
