Some Numbers

This will be released in IEC Episode 112 but I am going to put it here to just to show how useful this blog can be.

I have recently been looking at the number of Downloads and our totals for the months so far and I have been very pleased. Right now just for the month of April we are currently at 141 downloads. Which gives us a total of 384 downloads to date. I really only have all the listeners to thank. Episode 12 will have a note to this effect as well so listen for that.

I am also trying to get some big names in podcasting to read a Chapter or piece of a chapter. Currently I have sent requests to Scott Sigler (Future Dark Overlord (TM)) and J.C. Hutchins. I have not received replies yet but I have to wait.

This is not any promises but I do have my fingers crossed.

I am also thinking about Mur Lafferty and Christiana Ellis for the book as well. If so I will have to rerecord the intro to LF becuase it won't be just me reading it any more... well at least not for four episodes... five because back in march we had Chris Lester Read chapter 2 part 2. So yeah... that would be really nice... but we'll see I've sent one to FDO (TM) and J.C. so if those responses go well then we'll move on to Mur and Christiana.

I want to make a distinction about the above. Mur and Christiana are not "2nd choices" or something... I had just already sent out e-mails to FDO (TM) and J.C. upon the writing of this blog post and do not have the material ready for ready for four consecutive episodes. Chapters 5 & 6 have gone through the final editing phase and are ready to be read "on the wire" but Chapters 7 - the Epilogue have not. My editors (myself and one other person) aer currently working on getting those one's finished.
