S&L Podcast - #143 - Interview with Robyn Schneider

[Veronica, Supreme Sword]

We got chance to hang out (literally, Google hangout) with Robyn Schneider, author of many fine books, on top of many other talents! Find out her hidden secrets then go pick up her new book, The Beginning of Everything. Unless you're British. Then you'll need to look for Severed Heads, Broken Hearts. She'll explain it all in the show.

Good stuff, thanks for asking my questions! I think I'm going to check out The Secret History on strength of Robyn's recommendation.

Nice! heh heh

[Dracul]

Nice.

Any news on what is the October pick?

[Stephen]

Robyn made me feel really old.

[Will]

I get so anxious around this time if the month wondering what the next book will be. It's like wondering what you'll get for Christmas, only it comes more than once a year

[Kathryn]

Is her book SHBH classified as fantasy?

[Steve]

In hearing the title "The Beginning of Everything" - this occurred to me:

First is the beginning of everything
Next is the start of nothing
Finally the center of the middle
All good things come to me
When you solve my riddle

[Paul]

Yes, Any word on October pick? Too hard to rush around trying to find book at last minute sometimes...only four days left.
Damn time flies by quicker the older I get sigh.

Looks like it'll be steampunk classic Boneshaker. From what I gather browsing Amazon, it should make for a lively discussion. Unfortunately it's all checked out at my library and I promised myself no new books until I clear the unread ones on my Kindle so I might be late to this one...

[Caitlin]

Was Tom in front of a green screen?

[Thane]

Hm, has anyone else had trouble downloading this with a podcatcher? I did download it by computer, but keep forgetting to put it on my phone.

[Caitlin]

I have Blackberry podcasts and it never showed up so I watched on YouTube

[Veronica, Supreme Sword]

Try again! Should be fixed!

Rebooted phone, refreshed Podkicker, tried again. Couldn't get it. Randomly picked a podcast from another broadcaster, worked fine.

Sorry! Still not working. I wouldn't bug you about it but I know you want it working for as many people as possible. We need our S&L! It's like auditory crack.

This is a repost from another topic, but I'm trying to get the word out...

Let's help Tom & Veronica win a People's Choice Podcast Award!!

It's October, and that means nominations for the podcast awards open today.

The nomination portion will be open for 2 weeks. Every vote counts as the total number of nominations is a huge determining factor when they calculate the top ten in each category. One nomination form per person as they track by email address. I'm recommending the Entertainment and Culture/Arts categories.

C'mon everyone! Let's support Tom and Veronica and get them a People's Choice Podcast Award!

Steve's riddle will be the end of me.
