Frankly, I’m in a podcasting slump, and change needs to come to keep me from podfading. I talk about some of those changes here, and then we get to the Sherrilyn Kenyon interview.

  • Mur and Matt come to you live from Jeff Goldblum’s Douglas Adams Appreciation Center with special guest co-host, Brooke Bolander!
  • Mur explains the location of the show and how it relates to the Ditch Diggers’ struggles to book Brooke on the show (hurricanes, travel, and sick animals were involved).
  • Everyone catches everyone else up on what’s been going on in their lives and careers, including NaNoWriMo and other novel finishing efforts.
  • Mur masterfully segues into the main topic of the show, which is how to handle being nominated for multiple awards and not winning any of them.
  • Mur and Brooke talk about that feeling of almost getting there, but not, and Brooke talks about her many multi-award-nominated short stories.
  • The shenanigan engine thresholds of all three hosts are discussed, as is Robert Silverberg and dealing with the treatment of the less accepting older members of the SFF community.
  • dink jokes!
  • Public speaking for authors, and the many un-taught skills authors need to possess.
  • More dink jokes!
  • The perpetually premature onset on awards season, and everyone’s awards-eligible works.
