Tracking system for queries

ISBW Video Podcast #006 – Book Trailers

In this podcast I experiment with a new messy room in my house- the office. I discover the lighting is terrible, but I KEEP GOING.
Also, David Wellington was ISBW #111, not 112. My bad. I need a fact checker…

ISBW Video Podcast #3 – Interview with Scott Sigler

I just spent an evening with Scott Sigler and 104 other junkies during the tail end of the Sigler Stank tour. We had a blast at his reading and signing, and he graciously gave me a couple of minutes at the bar before the drinkin’ started to talk about his experience. Congrats on the New [...]
