Wicked Game podcast reading

Last year at Balticon I read several excerpts from Wicked Game, and it turns out they were recording it! (Actually, I knew, and had to sign a waiver thingie, but then promptly forgot.) You can hear a lot more than just the first-chapter excerpt on my website.

It was probably my best reading ever--not because of me, but because of the audience. It was a full room, and everyone was really into it, offering supportive smiles and not falling asleep. Anyone who's ever been onstage knows how much the audience energy contributes to a performance.

In this podcast, guest host and radio personality Jon "The Vicar" Stallard (host of Geek Radio Daily) gives what is probably the best summary of the book I've ever heard.

Check it out, and check out their other podcasts, which are some of the most professional productions I've ever heard. And if in you're in the Baltimore/DC area Memorial Day weekend, come to Balticon. You won't regret it!
