On an administrative note, I will be returning to my once a week release schedule, thank you for hanging in there with me. When I started my podcast I was one of the few podcasts out there for audiobooks, I've got increased competition now which has gotten more media attention than my own humble podcast so I appreciate you spending the time to stick with me. If you'd like to help spread the word please see my Link to me page, add me to your delicious or other social bookmarking places or just tell all your friends.
Thanks for listening!
