Know that between the years when the oceans drank Atlantis, and the years of the rise of the Sons of Aryas, there was an age when Big Anklevich and I were young, wide-eyed podcasters, and we did a few readings for StarShipSofa, the Audio Science Fiction Magazine. This was one of the big boys, producing works from top-notch writers, and winning a Hugo Award as Best Fanzine.
They went on to many great things, but their greatest impact on me was introducing us to Jason Sanford, who enjoyed our reading of "When Thorns Are The Tips Of Trees" enough to let us start doing his stories on the Dunesteef.*
But many years have passed since we worked with StarShipSofa, and those days, like being a regular podcast, are long behind us. Except for a month ago, when new editor (and holder of the answer to the Riddle of Steel) Gary Dowell sent me an email and asked if I'd like to do a story for them. Of course I said yes . . . and now you can hear me perform "Deep Water" by Steven Fischer.
It's a short piece, about a man attempting a rescue mission in a spacecraft damaged by an asteroid collision. Check it out at THIS LINK.
We shall see if more stories come my way. If so, then let me tell you of the days of high adventure!
*There's still one more Sanford story out there that I think about from time to time, and in a moment of ambition, I will produce it for the show.
