Michael and Evo: Wingin’ It!

Speaking of grassroots and scifi

I recently posted an article on my Blog (verysmalldoses.com) with some of my ruminations about grass roots sci-fi groups, how they relate to studios and vice-versa. I figured I’d share since this sort of stuff seems to deal directly with your target audience.

His sentiments echo things you folks have been telling us all along…

When the new episode of SoSF (that’s Slice of Scifi for the acronymicallu challenged) releases later tonight, you’ll hear our exclusive interview with Scott Sigler where he tells all the Earthcore (or is it Earthcrack) fans about a deal he’s just inked with Dragon Moon Press to release a print-version of Earthcore.

Very soon, all of you addicts to the podiobook can pre-order a copy of your very own. Now you can build your little shrines complete with platinum dust, squids and silver-painted cockroaches. Don’t know what I’m talking about? You can still catch the last three episodes on the podcast, though I highly recommend starting from the beginning. Watch this space for announcements on how you can do just that!

What’s on this week:

• This week the studio is full. Summer and Joe make it for the show and all type of topics ensue.
• Mike is drinking crappy american beer, while Evo continues to enjoy the beer Paul brought last week.
• A great conversation about good scifi movies that got canceled. (There are sure to be a few of your favorites in this list.)
• This week’s Duel of the Fates by Jack Mangan, we are into the second round and Tomi takes on Godzilla.
  (Jack’s forthcoming e-book, “Spherical Tomi”, will be published by Creative Guy Publishing.)
• Mur Lafferty (Geek Fu Action Grip) Tells us about a new game she invented - B-Movie Bingo. (Buy some beer, it’s a drinking game too!)
• Scifi Poetry Slam! This week we present Geek Love by Robert G. Parent.

Plus We hate hackers, Mike can’t read, and more!

• This week’s Duel of the Fates by Jack Mangan, pits Ash vs. Godzilla. Jack’s forthcoming e-book, “Spherical Tomi”, will be published by Creative Guy Publishing.

OK, now I know we have to start keeping track of these as they happen. Brandon Sanderson had this to say about us post-interview:

I have to say, I was impressed with those guys. They really knew what they were doing, and it seems like they have a really good show. I’d recommend it.

Damn skippy. Anyone want the job of scouring the net looking for great things said about us? Crappy things are OK to, though I doubt we’d feature them!
