So we enter a new realm with the Murder at Avedon Hill podcast… our first vidcast.
On October 7th Patrick McLean and I did a live reading of his Tales of the Children short story, “The Old God and the Sea.” After the reading we did a Q&A with Chooch (Chooch was on skype).
To make the video a little more fun, especially since Patrick’s story was a bit of a comedy, I’ve added some pop-up elements that hopefully add some humor to the video, and it also helps those watching the video understand what was going on in the Stickam chat room before the reading and during the Q&A.
This video is Pt. 1 (the intro and the reading). Pt. 2 will be released in the feed tomorrow.
For those that want separate feeds for audio and video, that is coming soon, along with a site redesign.

Yes, I was finally able to finish the audio version of “The Old God and The Sea,” by Patrick E. McLean. Contrary to initial plans for this podcast, I’m giving each episode the star treatment it deserves. Which of course means the episodes will be released when they get released.
0:00 – Intro Chatter
- We are still having a lot of fun doing Live Video Readings of new TotC stories over at Stickam.com – Tonight we have a story by Philippa Ballantine.
- The audio versions of the episodes will be released after the video episodes, so if you want to get them first, come on over to the live show (every other Wednesday evening at 9:30 pm Eastern).
4:40 – The Old God and the Sea – Patrick E. McLean
Rygar is the hedge knight everyone fears. Jarl is the fisherman no one could ever fear. What happens when these two men finally meet? It’s all in a day’s work (or a lifetime in this case) for a Child of Az.
23:00 – Outro Chatter
Check out the cross promotion I’m doing with Tabitha Grace Smith. A story I’ve written, “Exit Strategy,” will be released Monday, November 16th on the Angel Between the Lines podcast. Next Wednesday evening at 9:30 pm Eastern I will be reading Tabitha’s Tales of the Children short story, “Love’s Sacrificial Song” on my next Stickam.com live 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.
