Expo-Say
4
Thanks to the superior audacity of Evo Terra, the two of us will be speaking at the 2006 Podcast Expo in September. Our topic will be Podcasting the Written Word, which we’ve described as follows:
Combine the huge popularity of audiobooks and the open access of podcasting, shake well, and you get one of the most successful movements in new media today. Scores of authors are podcasting their work - alone or with talented narrators - to reach new audiences and bring their work alive. Two of the leaders in literary podcasting, Evo Terra of Podiobooks.com and Steve Eley of Escape Pod, discuss the joys and challenges of podcasting prose, specific technical considerations, and lessons from podcasts that have drawn thousands of listeners.Fun? I think so. If there’s one Achilles heel to our presentation it’s that we’re scheduled at the same time as Paul Figgiani’s session on building a podcast production studio.
But you guys already know how to do that, right? So come and listen to us! I guarantee we’re twice as funny as anyone else on at 3:15 PM Friday, and our hair is better than anybody this side of Geoghegan.
Good news-will you have Evo speaking in a funny accent?

Just when I’d decided not to pay to attend any of the conferences. Look what you’ve done…! Another two hundred bucks to come up with!!
Unless you wanna make it a panel, and include an author or two…?
(My own audacity comes and goes.)
