You see the date? It's leap year! I knew I'd have to do something special for it! But in all honesty, it kind of snuck up on me and So I just read you all Danger of Drowning! It's pretty good, and the start of me reading many more of my stories for listening in the car! Look forward to those!

I've really got to get to work on the podcast element of LynZine. A friend of mine told me that he'd love to hear a podcast where I just critique Greek tragedies (you should hear me go off on Electra! If my dad killed my sister I'd have helped my mom kill him!) but I prefer a more story oriented approach, like the ever fabulous Decoder Ring Theatre (If you haven't heard of it, stop reading and start listening to their podcast!). Still, I might do a few entries on Greek Tragedies and where Clytemnestra and Medea got it wrong. Maybe rant about Jason and Agamemnon a little bit.



In other news, I am trying to read through the legal jargon surrounding the copyright of Raffles the Gentleman thief, because I have an updated audio show version of them I would love to do. Alas, copyright and public domain is confusing to say the least.

I got the music for the intro of this reading from MusOpen.

It's not a bad resource, and makes it pretty clear what it wants from it's users.


Alright everyone! Enjoy your leap year!

Well... I finished my sound booth. There were some problems. The difficulty of propping it up is the main one, and that's just because the hinges failed. (I'll try to get bigger hinges.) But, when in doubt, improvise! I fanangled a tiny one person recording booth. And I have two or three other ideas to make up for the problems.

And that's how the irony happened. I went through all of the trouble of building a sound booth, and that is what led me to discover the echo problem was a software issue. Who would have thought software would have reverb as a pre-set? Absurd. Well, I'm still glad I have the sound booth. My room has some weird sound stuff going on.

Sorry about the wait on everything. At the beginning of August I got the Star Trek: Excelsior script for final editing. The script went out to the actors today (incredibly excited!) so I should be posting more regularly again! The stories are piling up, and I'm working on the last three stories of the Princess' Path right now.

For now, I hope that you enjoy this audio version of Living with a Hero.

Would anyone like these to be available as an iTunes podcast? Let me know!

Today was a big day. Today I learned that I won the Star Trek Excelsior Contest. (I can't even begin to tell you how excited I am about that.) And today I have officially upgraded my site. One of my main reasons for the upgrade was the ability to host audio. I have big plans for audio shows. But for now, enjoy my first foray into the medium with... A Stranger in the House.
