Author Notes 2 – Raw and Unedited

kimiko — Wed, 03 Jun 2009 14:49:15 +0000

Ok you all asked for it (well some of you did). Here’s Author’s Notes #2. Please remember this is raw and unedited. There is no fixing of bg noise, no clipping of my many mistakes where I shamefully forget KL Grady’s name and Christiana Ellis’s book name. No taking out of “ums” and pauses where I hussle to find those names I’ve forgotten. You are welcome to leave comments here or the voice line to tell me you rather I edit those things.

Sadly and also because it’s unedited…for the moment I don’t have many show note links. If I go back and re-listen I will edit. So here are the links I remember.

KL Grady – FiveScribes
Jackie Kessler – Cat and Muse
Scott Sigler
Christiana Ellis – Nina Kimberly the Merciless
Tee Morris
Philippa Ballantine
JC Hutchins – Personal Effects: Dark Art

Promo: The Computer King

Episode 19 – TaleChasing Feedback 0908

kimiko — Wed, 10 Sep 2008 02:05:24 +0000

I did it! It’s less then two weeks after Dcon and I have an episode up. Granted not my NOTES from Dcon but an episode none the less. This says promising things. This is my feedback from the last year as I was a bad host and didn’t get back to it. That among other things…is going to change!

An update

kimiko — Tue, 22 Apr 2008 13:59:02 +0000

Over the last few days I’ve been working on my plot cards and deciding how I want to open my story. A part of me wants to sit in front of them until I have each and every card filled out but we all know what that is. That’s procrastination. And that’s bad. So I’ll be kicking into gear in the next day or two.

This week I’ll be recording two interviews for the site and working on getting the one I did with Chris Lester up.

Last night I recorded most of my part for Chris’s cast. I finished recording my part for our entry for JC Hutchin’s Obsidian project, my new lines in Astral Audio’s new script and sent did an audition for another cast.

I found out yesterday that not only am I on the following panels for DragonCon but I am on a really awesome panel about Casting your Writing with Tee Morris, Michael Stackpole, and Scott Sigler. I may even have an opportunity to read something while I’m there. So I have a lot to do before August. Get a good percentage of my story written and cast, make biz cards to hand out, make a t-shirt to wear (which means you may have the option to buy one representing the story), and of course the ever present tone up. LOL

These are the panels I’m on: Webcam Girls, Self Publication, Promoting your Podcast, and Podcasting your Writing

Speaking of T-shirts….I am looking for an artist for an image I have in my head of what I want to represent the story. If you are willing to contribute your time and work for credit on the site and cast and want to send me a sample of your work please email me. The media can definitely be digital, done in poser, or regular.

Here’s a few links worth taking a look at:

Btw..I’m also looking for a few good beta readers. What I’m seeking is someone who can critique my story not my grammar. I need feedback on my characters, my setting, what you get out of it, what you think you learned, etc. Feel free to write if you are interested. I should have something to crit in less then a week.

A day of connections

I was really fortunate today to be able to hook up with Scott Sigler for lunch while he’s here in NYC for a book reading/signing for Infected! Not only did I get to sit down and eat sushi but he was really sweet and helped me answer a few questions related to an audio project (read below) I’m going to possibly get involved with and answered some of my questions about writing, podcasting my writing, and my plot. It wasÂ an extremely useful converstation and well worth the time to trek into NYC for. I sadly wasn’t able to hit his reading because of some other obligations but I have no doubt the man was swamped with fans!

As I mentioned above, I may be getting involved in an audio project that I set in motion in February. I’m keeping the details close to my chest but it looks like I may have an opportunity to record some audio books and I’m really excited about it.

The last bit of really exciting news is that it looks like not only is a comment I made on an article in the SF Chronical online mentioned in an article for today but it’ll be printed in the SF Chronical’s paper tomorrow! The article is about how Seth Harwood and Scott Sigler have made such an impact on the publishing world via their free audio podcast of their work. The Tale Chasing site is actually mentioned and will get the exposure of all of their online and print readers! They asked me yesterday if they could repost my comment and it never occured to me that they’d be ‘printing’ the comment as well. So I’m extremely psyched about that!

As a side note, because people are starting to search for “tail chasing” to find the site, I back ordered the tailchasing.com domain in the hopes that anyone looking for this site can find it. Ok…now I’m off to work on my plot.

I’m on a roll!
