After several months of posting my Short Story (audio) Podcasts up on a
service it looks like that service is requiring anyone who wants to listen to
them to set up an account and login. I don’t blame you for not doing that! So, I’m
“slowly” moving the podcasts to YouTube. I say slowly because YouTube doesn’t
allow just audio so I have to do a little adjusting. But I’ll re-release the
first 6 audio podcasts over the next few weeks. A brand new one titled, “Hello.
I’m Driver Ed”, will be posted August 8th.
By the way, all of my Video Podcasts can already be found on YouTube.
While we’re on the subject of my podcasts, a lot of folks have asked
recently, “What are you doing? You’re all over the place!” Well, that’s me. I
don’t believe in that rule of thumb that says you have to only write in one
genre. I believe if you’re comfortable writing in different genres, then go for
it. For example, I’m known for my outdoor recreation books on hiking, paddling,
and camping but I love writing in general and I’m tackling a murder mystery, an
historical non-fiction book on the space program, and of course, my short
stories. Now, will they sell? THAT, my friends, is a different story, but I
love the process and like I said, love writing so if anything I’m having fun.
Oh, and an update on the new book, “Best Dog Hikes Alabama”, my
co-author Archer T. Dog is doing well with his cartilage and knee issues. We’ve
done a series of “shake-down” hikes here along the Alabama Gulf Coast near our
home which will be part of the book. The hikes in the book will once again be
divided into the Alabama Department of Tourism and Travel’s regions – Gulf,
South (Montgomery), Central (Birmingham), and North (Huntsville). Our first
road trip will be August 19th to do some trails in the South Region.
