This is the post where I pimp all the cool kids I've been listening to.

Are you looking for some good fiction to listen to? You're in luck because there's a lot of it out there!

If you want a novel, here are a few to check out:

dammit. How am I gonna catch up with that lot?

:-)

Tell me about it! And we won't even go into how far behind on Coverville I am...

doesn't help that I shouldn't be downloading stuff like that at work either.

have found a nifty download tool though, called Orbit. It'll grab all the mp3 links off a page and queue them up for immediate/later download.

We listen to a fair amount of the same 'casts.

I'm also thinking we need to get J.C., Tee Morris and/or Scott to CONvergence next year.

You forgot our purple-haired tiara-wearing princess, Mur! And Jonathan Coulton for music!
If only CONvergence would add a New Media track. How awesome would that be?!? Of course, with the bajillion returning guests for this year there's no way they could be convinced to bring in podcasters too... The trick is to get some of them to come on up on their own because once they've done one CONvergence they'll keep coming back!

Well, I haven't really listened to Mur's fiction stuff yet, so my opinion is pretty non-existant at the moment :)

Unfortunately, I already borached the subject with Tee earlier this week, and he has no plans for any MN cons this year due to budget constraints :(

Thanks for the pimping, Hellziggy! I appreciate your assistance in getting the word out about Metamor City. :)

hellziggy January 17 2008, 04:51:27 UTC

Not a problem Chris! Your stories rock! I seriously love the genre where fantasy/magic/supernatural meshes with technology. And dude, you had Leann voice a vampire. Can it get hotter than that? ;)

Thanks for the pimp for Buffy Between the Lines!! I really appreciate that.

hellziggy January 17 2008, 04:58:49 UTC

No problem! I hear good things about it, and I really will have time to listen to it... someday...
Even though my desk job wasn't one where I could cruise the net all day, now that I'm back in retail my podcast listening and twitter tweets have been *really* hard to keep up with.

Also, dude, I clicked your user info and saw lots of bolded mutual friends there, both podcast peeps and perv fandom peeps. So I'm gonna run off and friend you now, k?
