Fantasy Minute for December 21, 2005: Episode 115

If you miss a favorite author when they appear at Denver's Tattered Cover Book Store, you’re no longer completely out of luck. Thanks to a new partnership between BurstMarketing, podcasts called Authors On Tour — Live!, will generate free weekly downloads featuring recently published authors reading from and discussing their works while at the Tattered Cover. The first of these 30-45 minute shows is available now.

In coming weeks, the program will be expanded to include podcasts with Susanna Clarke, Robert Hicks, Neil Gaiman, Lemony Snicket, Clive Barker, Andrew Weil, Monty Roberts, Nicholas Sparks, Dan Savage, Zadie Smith, Michael Connelly, and others.

Emerald City, a genre website offering reviews, news, and analysis, has posted surprise announcement: Well, this blog might be drawing readers to the site, but over the past month or so the main effect it seems to have had is to get me into more and more trouble. Therefore, apart from any important announcements regarding Emerald City that might arise, I’m going to stop posting to it for a while. Hope Cheryl gets everyone off her back and she begins posting again.

F. Brett Cox (The Serpent and the Hatchet Gang) KGB Bar, New York City NY, 7 p.m.

Jack Womack (Lying to Children) KGB Bar New York City NY, 7 p.m.
