On Friday, I'll be at the Tucson NPR/AZ Public Media studios to record a brand-new short story called "Long Road Home." The tech wizards at the studios will be adding sound effects. The finished product will be aired on the Arizona Spotlight holiday show, Dec. 23/24. I'll post more detailed info when I have it, so locals can listen in. It'll also be available online, and I'll post links to that.
"Long Road Home" is a holiday-themed story, albeit a fairly dark, fantastical one. I will also try to get an e-version up online, either free or at very low cost, around the time of the broadcast, so people can give it a read if they care to. It was written expressly for the broadcast,
Thanks to AZ Public Media for inviting me to be part of this!


V. Cool!

Very awesome. Please be sure to let everyone know when it comes on or where it can be located. Big NPR fan, and it's great that they've had you on to do this. Congratulations.
p.s.- Is there a way to subscribe to your blog via email? I don't ever think to check my feeds, but I'm pretty regularly on email.

Paul, I honestly don't know if there's anything except for the "subscribe to this blog's feed" button. The weird thing is, when I'm at home, unless I mess with my satellite settings, I can't see my own blog. So I can get to the control pages but I'm not sure what's actually on the blog page.
And expect an announcement about the NPR thing tomorrow!
