Podcast Roundup: Parallel Gathers Steam

Posted in Announcements, and Podcasting

Lately, I’ve been obsessed with automating new processes. At work, I’ve long automated text-processing tasks, but I’m expanding that to web work, and building workflows around podcast production. What I have yet to tackle is my tendency to forget about this lovely little blog. If you wonder why I do, perhaps take a listen to some podcasts I’ve been making, and where I’ve been appearing. More of that is on the way when the book comes out in a few weeks. So yeah.

Podcast: Something to Say

Posted in Pods and Presos

My friend Josh de Lioncourt has a new show called Something to Say. On each episode, he talks to a creative person about what he or she does. I was honored to be the first guest.
