Goblin Market is Done… Now What?
I really do want to thank everyone who stuck by me through this whole podcasting experiment. It wasn’t always timely, or easy. The sound quality hasn’t always been the best, but many have told me the story itself was compelling enough to keep you all by my side.

Podcaturday: A Joint Venture in Nothing…er Something…er…Whatever
So a few weeks ago, my friend Acadia over at Superficial Gallery started this thing called Podcaturday. He was like, “Yo, Beans, who are podcatters you know?” And I was like, “So and so, and this guy, and you know, and someone else. Why?” He got all snarky and told me to mind my own [...]

When I asked if people wanted to help us raise money for Michael’s film project, so many writers came out of the woodwork and offered up their work without question. No one wanted to know, “What will I get from this?” No one asked if they’d get paid. They just wanted to help.
