TTA Podcasts
So let me take a moment to direct your attention to a brand-new podcast site, courtesy of the Third Alternative Press. The site itself is called Transmissions From Beyond, and every other Monday it will feature new podcasts for stories from TTA's magazines--Interzone, Black Static, and Crimewave. There is currently a story there from each of the magazines.
And why am I pimping this, you ask?
Well, a couple of months back I recorded "Feelings of the Flesh," my story in Interzone 212, for podcasting on the new site. Yes, I recorded it. Authors were given the option to record their own tales and I decided to take Pete Bullock (the electronic editor) up on this offer. Almost two hours and a parched throat later it was done! Alas, it's not on the site just yet, but it will be at some point in the future. However, while my story may not be available just yet, I'm rather proud of the fact that my TOC-mate from IZ 212, Tim Akers, will have his story, "The Algorithm," kicking off the festivities for the Interzone portion of the podcast. "The Algorithm" is a great story, and the site itself looks absolutely fantastic. Check it out for yourselves!
And Jeremy T., yes, I lied to you! Sorry! I was too clever for my own good, thinking no one would pick up on that reference. Since I'd promised to keep this under my hat I was forced to make it seem like you were mistaken. No hard feelings? :)
