View From The Quad

In this episode of the View from the Quad, I interview the genius behind 7th Son, J.C Hutchins. We talk about where the idea for his book came from, his rig (what he uses to record and edit) and J.C wanting to be put in old man makeup, and acting as an old man. Also on the cards is the First movie which he saw which made him want to write this sort of stuff, (original Star Wars, not the new one *shiver*) exploding listnership and exploding lorries. But that is not all! (In fact, that is just the first 20 min or so!) Listen to find out exactly how our (mindbending for me) conversation went! My fave qoute which makes me look like an idiot: “When I was trying to contact you cause things went a bit south, I managed to find your address and phone number. Has anybody ever contacted you about that?” “No.” “Ah… Ehmm…” The Next interview will be a really really long interview with Tee Morris, and after that, Mur Lafferty. Please go to www.vftq.info if you have a question for her. Please go to any of my websites and fill in the survey. This really helps me.

The main site at www.stuffslashersaw.com is messed up a whole lot, so until i get it all sorted out, (and BigBytes.net sort out their damn support) that address will reroute to this site. It is likely that when this is all over, I will be moving hosts.

Today, my main topic of conversation is Podcasting on a higher budget then my last podcasting tutorial, and here is the link to that lovely microphone I was talking about. If anybody wants to buy it for me, and then ship it over to Ireland, I will happily advertise their business for two episodes on my podcast.
http://www.junglecrazy.com/view/5065 . And just to fix something up, it costs $59.99.

I also rabbit on about why you should not buy the Apple TV, and if you are going to, why you should wait a few months.
Also on the list of things to talk about, a new book I bought called 101 things to do before you die and the Interview with J.C Hutchins
www.jchutchins.net next episode and the interview with Tee Morris

I have started to complete my (currant) goal in podcasting, to interview some of the best authors and most interesting people in podcasting, and beyond. (Notice the open-ended ‘Beyond’)We also talk about his next print novel, Ancestor, http://tinyurl.com/3du3lz (Make sure to buy it on April the First, and to bundle it with his other book, Earthcore to get the best deal)

Who would be interested in taking part in a Live-Action streamed-everybody-can-join-in version of the View from the Quad? As in you can hear me record live, and ring in to the show to talk to me when ever, where ever. We are talking through your phone, skype, web browser, anything. I also think that this would be an amazing piece of technology for Interviewing people. So. Who would be interested?
