A quick update to the magnificent listeners of FETIDUS! The gears of the apocalypse turn ever onward! The next episode is nearly, finally, amazingly, almost complete! Yes! Your patience will be rewarded with my never-ending gratitude and of course continued episodes of FETIDUS as we follow Art Blanchard deep into the dark mystery of The Damned Heir!
This episode I’ve been working on — this giant beast also known as Episode 8 — has been the largest, most complex, darkest episode yet! Clocking in at well over 70 minutes, 7500+ words and tons of new, original, thrilling music, it has been a mighty task to complete. But I’m up to the challenge, my friends. I’ve managed to trim it back quite a bit, and get it into “normal” specs of time and wording, so we are finally nearing the launch of this dastardly episode!
During this round of production, I’ve had a few surprises come up… my dear wife in the hospital, awesome fan art coming in, Parsec recognition, and even the completion of a teaser/trailer for an awesome indie sci-fi film I’ve been working on (check it out, I wrote the music for it).
In other words, Life, my dear listeners! We all experience it. The good and the bad. And everything in between. For me, what matters is that we move forward, chipping away at the sculpture of our respective destinies. And forward FETIDUS moves with me, into the next thrilling episode which is coming to your inbox or iPod (or Zune) soon. Enough of the cornball verbosity! Now, I go back to work in my laboratory of creative mayhem!
Forever Your Humble Servant in Apocalyptic Matters,
James Durham

Hey James – I ‘m a recent convert to FETIDUS and I’m totally blow away! The actors are excellent and the production is phenomenal. I’ve listened to episodes 1-7 about 5 times over now and can’t wait to see where the story goes…

You are such a cruel tease! We need our fix!!!
Thank you, Sam! I’m the one blown away — thank you for the awesome post! The good news is that Episode 8 is almost here. I’m in the final stages right now, and it should be posted before I hop on a plane to Dragon*Con (possibly minutes before I leave….).
Scott! Thanks for dropping by! Wish you were coming to Dragon*Con so we could talk some more shop. Maybe next year? And yes, the episode is almost here, my friend! This one is the biggest one yet, so I hope it will satisfy your FETIDUS addiction for a little while.
