Well, I’ve been treated mighty nice this week by Tabz and the rest of the band of crazies over at Angel Between the Lines. Here’s what’s happened during the Tales of the Children/Angel Between the Lines Crossover Event:
- On Wednesday evening I did a live reading of Tabitha Grace Smith’s Tales of the Children story, Love’s Sacrificial Song, on Stickam.com
- It was my most popular live show so far, with over 200 people attending at least some part of the two hour show.
- We had a live interview with Tabz after the reading.
- We rolled out a brand new element to the Stickam Live Show… the DYH Drinking Game!
- Later that night, Angel Between the Lines released my story, Exit Strategy, as a nearly hour-long full-cast audio drama.
- From the description on the ABTL website: From Ocean’s 11 to the Italian Job there’s no lack of criminals in fiction, but Johannes Cordner needs the best. The puzzling twists and turns aren’t just keeping the audience confused. Can the criminals break into Wolfram & Hart’s law offices without getting caught? And what exactly are they stealing?
- As always, Tabz has delivered a great production. And since this is my first fiction to hit the podosphere since May, I hope you’ll give it a listen.
- On Thursday, ABTL and Murder at Avedon Hill fan Dan Shaurette wrote a great feature story on me and Murder at Avedon Hill. It must have taken Dan HOURS to write that up, and I’m honored.
- On Friday, ABTL released the .pdf of Exit Strategy.
What a great week (other than my laptop dying, which is another story altogether)!
Thanks again to Tabz and ABtL for such a great time. And for those that missed the live show, the audio version of Love’s Sacrificial Song will be released before the end of the year.

Tomorrow I’ll be doing the 7th Live Show on Stickam.
Thanks to everyone that has attended shows so far. The live show has been such a pleasant surprise! We’ll have another wonderful story from a Podiobooks author, “Feverfew” by H.E. Roulo. Heather is the author of Fractured Horizons, and she is also one of the driving forces behind Podioracket.com. Heather has written a dark, gritty story that I think everyone will love. If you would like a short preview, check out the excerpt on her site.
Come join the fun. We’ll be doing Round 3 of the Damn You Holyfield Drinking Game, so we’ve got that going for us…
Work on the website has gone well so far (slow, but well), and I hope to have new feeds soon.
Last but not least, I have a seekrit project for 2010. Stay tuned…

I have had a lot of trouble putting into words what I’ve been feeling this week. One of my best friends, both in podcasting and in life, lost his wife unexpectedly. I don’t have the capacity to write what I should at this point, but thankfully J.C. Hutchins has done just that, more eloquently than I ever could. If you have listened to Tee Morris on his podcasts, or even just as the voice of Father Jorrus in Murder at Avedon Hill, please head on over to J.C.’s site and read this post, and listen to the seven minute audio file. Do that for me.
Thank you to J.C., and to Philippa Ballantine for spearheading the effort around this.
Tee, thoughts and prayers go out on your behalf in this time of need. You are loved.

On Saturday, Feb. 27 (in two days!) Rich Sigfrit will be hosting an online auction on behalf of Tee’s daughter, affectionately known as “Sonic Boom.” I made a contribution to the auction:
- a signed copy of Murder at Avedon Hill (when it is released in May)
- a custom t-shirt with one of the Children of Az on the front, and whatever text you’d like (approved by me, of course
) on the back.
- a one of a kind DVD with two of the live episodes of Tales of the Children, pop up video and text, audio commentary, and a special video message just for the buyer.
Please visit The Boom Effect for more information on this ‘lot.’ ( http://www.theboomeffect.org/?p=251 )
If you cannot attend the live show, you can make a proxy bid.
And if you are not blown away by this package (I am), then look over the other awesome contributions that will be auctioned off during the show.

My good friend Patrick McLean over at The Seanachai (How to Succeed in Evil, Flinchy and the Mexican Show Truck) is doing his last episode of his podcast live on Stickam (link to the show will be posted as soon as I get it). The live show will be on Wednesday, March 24, at 9:00 pm Eastern time.
As a good Irishman (at least a 1/4 of me, anyways), I’ll be helping him bring The Seanachai to a fitting end. He’ll be sharing a true story of gun play, injury, and I’m sure he will deliver it with the humor and style that has made The Seanachai one of the best fiction/essay podcasts ever produced.
Join us for the fun.
Author, Podcaster, Father - P.G. Holyfield's first novel, Murder at Avedon Hill, was published by Dragon Moon Press in May of 2010. He passed away on August 20, 2014 in his home, surrounded by family and friends.
