Here is the first full-length Coode Street podcast. Recorded just minutes ago, Gary and I discuss what it means to work and review for Locus, SF’s attraction to the ‘new’ in new weird, new space opera and new sword and sorcery, career pressure on short story writers, as well as books by China Mieville and others. We also mention some books we’re looking forward to.
With a little luck we’ll podcast regularly (every week or two), so we hope you enjoy it. Also if there are any problems with the audio, my apologies. I’m still working this out.
A new short Coode Street monologue where I sit in my office and talk about appearing on Starship Sofa to talk about Godlike Machines, discuss exactly how you get Ted Chiang to write for you (hint: ask), mention Ted’s new upcoming Subterranean Press novella “The Life Cycle of Software Objects”, and answer a few questions from Twitter.
IÂ am still messing around getting the whole podcast thing to work, to only minimal avail in truth. However, I still have the urge to podcast so I’ve recorded a second short audio blog entry. This one is about ten minutes long and I discuss a few upcoming SF novels I’m looking forward, the new issue of Locus, and my upcoming anthology Engineering Infinity.
Hi all – This really isn’t very real. This is me sitting in my office by myself at 11.00pm on a Sunday, recording my first Audio Blog. I blather about the year’s best, my reading, and some other stuff. My voice sounds awful, but more as I play with the tech.
