Summer Brooks, Producer of The Dragon Page podcasts, reports that this Saturday they will be doing something new with Cover to Cover.
We will be recording the next “Cover to Cover” feature on Saturday, May 13th, beginning at 10:30am Pacific Time. What makes this different is that we’ll be talking with 3 authors from Edge Publications, and you’ll be able to call in with questions and comments during and after their roundtable discussion. Rebecca Rowe (”Forbidden Cargo”), Lynda Williams (”Courtesan Prince”, “Throne Prince”, “Righteous Anger”), and Australian author and Borealis winner K.A. Bedford (”Orbital”, “Eclipse”, “Hydrogen Steel”) will be talking about their books, all of which have something to do with genetic modification and the use of nanotechnology in humans. Listeners will be able to hear the feed here: http://haven.homelinux.net:12346/listen.pls Australian listeners can catch a feed closer to home: http://stream.froosh.net:8000/wingin_it.m3u We are in the process of adding another server, so keep an eye out here, and in the new IRC channel #dragonpage for more news. Both IRC channels #dragonpage and #wingin_it are available at irc.freenode.net
Leave it to Michael and Evo and the Kick Ass Mystic Ninjas to fiddle with the possibilities of the awesomeness of podcasting. If you’ve got some time Saturday, check it out.

Thanks for a great year, everyone! This coming year will be bigger and better. Nothing can stop us now!
