Jay Tomio at Bookspot Central has an interview with me up:

My short story Resistance is podcast over at Escape Pod, read by Stephen Eley.

Metatropolis homepage

The audio anthology Metatropolis is live. Featuring novellas by John Scalzi, Karl Schroeder, Jay Lake, Elizabeth Bear, and little ole’ me!
I’m truly psyched to have been part of this project that John Scalzi cooked up. Creating the stories, and riffing off each other, was a great deal of authorly fun.
Podcast interview goodness
October 8th 2008 at 11:29 am
I’ve been falling behind on linkage, been a scattered last week and weekend, but I’m pulling ahead. I have two podcast interviews to point you at, for the interested:
