Hooray Friday! Another Textual Healing podcast. This one is relatively short compared to the last one, clocking in a little under 8 minutes. Oh! And we’re just about through chapter one, hooray! Starbucks cups? Why? I suppose you’ll have to listen to figure it out. This one features the voices of Allie Harcharek (Valerie), Mikey [...]... Read the rest of "Textual Healing: Sunday, Part IV"
My good friends Kishwer Vikaas and Gino Barrica were kind enough to invite me to appear on their latest project, a podcast called Talkadelphia. After a heated argument regarding the similarities between Geekadelphia and their freshly titled blog, we opted to settle out of court for an undisclosed sum of money and an appearance on [...]...

About a week or so ago, I made a joke about using Cee Lo’s music video for F*ck You in the classroom as an example of cause and effect in narrative. Laughs were had, comments were made, Like buttons were clicked on Facebook… and then I thought about it a little more. Because seriously… why [...]...

And we continue where Sunday, Part II left off. This one is a bit long, clocking in a little over 17 minutes. You might want to download this one. I’d explain the panther image… but that would ruin the story. Give it a listen, and keep in mind that the character of Brian is, in [...]... Read the rest of "Textual Healing: Sunday, Part III"

I talk a lot about Textual Healing and the podiobook, and also chat about my work, teaching, and the joys of living in Philadelphia. For you ladies who can’t get enough Eric Smith (I’m looking at you, Anna) it [...]... Read the rest of "Press: Q&A on Technically Philly"

Photo via Blue Realm Studios This year started out rough. At the end of January, I suddenly found myself on a train back to Philadelphia from upstate New York, carrying with me an engagement ring that I no longer had a finger for. I was fortunate enough to have a ton of amazing friends eagerly [...]... Read the rest of "Becoming the Master Chief"
It begins. Welcome to the Textual Healing podiobook. Every week, so long as there aren’t any terrible disasters, I’ll be posting a snippet of Textual Healing, read aloud. I’m planning to release these in ten page installments, and this first one runs about ten minutes. Special thanks to the lovely Britt Miller for stopping by [...]...

. So with Textual Healing set to drop relatively soon, people are asking me how I plan to promote the book. After-all, this is an indie release, with little (to no) marketing push. Distribution depends on Amazon and the online stores of big booksellers like Borders and Barnes & Noble. So without a giant publisher, [...]... Read the rest of "Textual Healing: The Podiobookcast"
