There is going to be a delay in the first few episodes. We have the material to talk about,  but we cant record. My little gremlin got ahold of a mic XLR cable and bent it, That mic now has a hum. I am not going to record with this cause it really drives me crazy when the sound quality is off.

The interesting thing is that I went to the local Store that sells XLR cables. They had a whole shelf with cables but no price tags on them, they only said XX% off. Now I dont know everything about audio equipment, I know alot about video equipment, so I do not know if there is a difference in cables like there is for Microphones. I grab a cable after looking at the different brands and quilities, but I was still not for sure. So I took that cable up to the front counter. They had three employees working that counter and only one customer, I figured one of the other two should be able to help me. NO. I waited about 15min with no help, I even made eye contact with one of them but still no acknowledgement from them. Thus I left and with no cable.

What im going to do is release a shorter episode that will go over the general time line of what major events I want to happen in my univers. I will post that up and then next time Jim and I get together we should be able to record.

Sorry for delay folks, but sometime these things happens.

While there is not much content up right now, being we only have episode 0 and 1 up. This is still cool because its the first time I have done this on my own.

If you search iTunes for (The Red Earth Saga Podcast) it will come up. You can also do it the manual way by putting in the RSS feed into iTunes.

If you have any issues getting the podcast please let me know, contact me at redearthsaga@gmail.com

 

Here is a breif introduction to the hosts. We hope that you will get to know us and not think we are total wind bags.

- Corrections, Dan's Game is called Epoch of Rysos, I think I missed pernounced it. Also its not a D&D it his own system.

Short simple and to the point.

I think we will have enough material to start on May 1st. If this is to change we will post somehting. See you then.

Since we do not have a forums, I figured we should have a way for you to get a hold of us. I have a gmail account for the show. It is redearthsaga@gmail.com. you can reach us there and give us feedback, and let us know how we are doing.

Let me talk a little more about the podcast for a second. Right now I have the introduction episodes, (0 and 1). Right now both of them are short but they are supposed to be. As for the length of the podcast episodes I will keep them to a max length of 1 hour, for now we are going to judge the standard length in the next five episodes. The episodes will be bi-weekly and have Jim and I as the main hosts, with possible guest hosts to fill in the gaps.

Just to reiterate, the initial podcast will not be the reading of the stories but the ideas that make up the story. we will offer the story when its ready in PDF format and possible audio book.

 

Hello and welcome to my new podcast. This is going to be a completely new endeavor by me. The podcast itself will be a discussion on creating and fleshing out the ideas that I have in my head for this Universe that I have created. After we discuss said topics I then plan on writing down the write ups, and soon to have sketches follow. Jim and I will be talking about whatever topics we have some knowledge and if we don’t we hope to bring in a guest host who can fill us in. 

I hope to have either several short stories or a novel/novella and some short stories. We shall see how it pans out. Now some of you are probably wondering why are you doing this? To be honest I’m not the best writer, but I hope with doing this podcast I will have more and better information to put down on the page, and also be better informed on how to write this for you. I am not diluting my self as this will be a masterpiece and make me rich. I really do not intend on selling this I wish to put it up in PDA form for free, and eventually a audio book to listen to.

As I have mentioned to some of my friends, When I was  younger I wanted to be a movie director. I had this great idea for a movie, I needed a great space opera with better space battles and cool stuff. I tried to become a movie director and go to USC to study where the greats learned, but I suck at standardized testing and I could not afford to go there. So I found a different path in life, like so many do. But my Idea never went away it always got bigger and bigger. Now that I have a daughter I would love to tell her these stories, but Im not a writer im a Computer tech. What do I know about writing, not much, but I hope to learn through this podcast.

The other reason that I am doing this is because I was inspired by a few of my friends. Dan, who you would know from fear the boot. He has his own grand story that I know he wants to tell, his Epoch of Rysos. I know that he has run this a role-playing game, as I would assume that many people with grand ideas like these do. I think if given the chance he would write a book about it, and I would love to read it.

Also I was inspired by Adam, who was with fear the boot, and now is doing his own podcast about writing called the habitual insomniac. This has inspired me to get the courage to write my ideas. In fact there is already a short one page story up, I have received some critiques. I hope to write more and have people tell me what they think so that I can go back and correct these things.

My hope is that I will in turn inspire someone else to write down there great stories, and that some will enjoy the Red Earth Saga. More to come later, and I hope you like it.
