Hello, my friends.

As you may know I’m self publishing a book in the coming weeks. I’ve heard from some of you looking for more information on self publishing so I’ve made a point to have more guests who have self publishing experience. This episode I will continue in that vein with a great interview with Scott Roche. Scott is one of the editors with Flying Island Press and has come out with a self published version of his book Ginny Dare, Crimson Sand in both paper and eBook formats.

I’ve also had a question come up on both Twitter and my blog from two difference people. That makes it too timely to ignore, so in today’s tips and typos section I try to answer the question, “when do you know it’s time to stop revising your story?”

One last note; I’ve dropped the bit rate of the podcast from 128 Kb to 64 Kb to make the mp3 smaller and faster to download. Please let me know if you notice any real difference. I’ve been wondering for a while if the file size of the show was too big for you listeners and I wanted to do a little experiment here.

Enjoy the show.

In this episode we talk to author, podcaster and Dragon Moon Press Art Director Alex White about his writing and his work for Dragon Moon Press creating covers for their artists.

I also talk about the merit of merit badges and there is a new eMagazine in town: Flying Island Press is currently accepting submissions.

And don’t forget to visit Paulette Jaxton at http://empresssword.com. Paulette purchased a sponsorship as part of the Boom Effect auction. Even if she hadn’t I would recommend her podcast. It is well worth listening to.

Thanks for listening.
