Wow, quite the year you’ve had. I’m horribly sorry to hear about your nephew. I can’t imagine what your family has gone through. My thoughts/prayers/best wishes/all applicable positive energies will be directed your way
On the other hand, I’m happy to hear you’re re-releasing the past episodes of FETIDUS. Also, the stripped down format sounds like it should be good. If you listened to Phil Rossi’s HARVEY, you’ll remember that it had no chatter, no story so far, just the intro straight into the story, and it worked really well. That’s not to say I dislike chatter; getting to “know” the authors is actually one of my favorite parts of podcast fiction, but I think the stripped down approach is good, too.
Can’t wait to hear the next episode!
So, sorry to hear about your nephew. Along with everything else, that made for a rough year. Glad to hear you had some positive moments as well. I can understand 2009 making you reevaluate what you’re doing. Sounds like you’re making some reasonable concessions on the podcast in order to balance your life more. For what it’s worth, I don’t think the podcast will suffer. I think you’re striking a good balance. Looking forward to hearing the new episodes. And I’ll be waiting patiently.
*wow!* is about all I can say,
Okay, even *uber-wow!* & hella chill! I can’t believe I’ve only now found FETIDUS. This so in amazingly cool plot, one I was personally thinking of for a story of my own. One for a game: except I was thinking of trying to approach this subject from both sides. Including over zealous “advocates” and over “conservative” nutters.
But what you’ve done here is far more entertaining and engrossing. I love what you’ve done here. Its an amazing peice of work and I am sincerely looking forward to seeing & hearing where the muse next brings you & where you take us.
Again: amazing work! and thank you for sharing with us.
Eagarly awaiting what’s to come,
