I’ve been waiting for a moment like this for many years. A day when I can announce that you can view and order my book in Amazon.
Many people will know that I started writing a co-authored book in June. At the beginning of April Kirk McElhearn, my co-author, suggested we write a book about podcasting. Within a month–quick work in the publishing industry–O’Reilly confirmed that they wanted to work with us on The Whole Internet Guide To Podcasting and Internet Audio.
Several mad mad months ensued, with every hour of my life consumed with my work, podcasting, and writing. My wife and daughter brought me food and water, as I locked myself in my new office to churn out words.
Yesterday Kirk Skyped me to confirm that he’d received a copy of a pocket guide of our work. It’s a shortened version of our book, with some extra information from Jack Herrington. Our work focuses on the listener, where Jack’s is for the budding podcaster, introducing the tools and methods to record your own.
It’s an exciting time, seeing my name on the front cover of a book. What’s almost as exciting–as a minority might understand–is I have an O’Reilly animal to call my own: a Narwhal.
So the Podcasting Pocket Guide
shows you how to tune into the best podcasts and download them to your favorite portable device so you can listen to them wherever and whenever you want. This handy reference even includes a listener’s guide with reviews of some of the most interesting and unusual podcasts available today. From unique views on current events to music you’d never hear otherwise to soundseeing tours that take you all over the world, there’s something for everyone on virtually every conceivable topic.
For aspiring podcasters, Podcasting Pocket Guide
The full work will also be available soon. I’ll let you know when I hear the details about that publication.
In the mean time, the pocket guide retails for $9.95, so please, grab a few for Christmas presents
