    greetings Mur,
    Love the show. I get it through I Tunes. For some reason, I Tunes didn’t seperate the shows from 45 to 46. Could you repost 46 on I tunes.
    thanks,
    jae from chicago

    Wow! Now I’m quite looking forward to the novel getting bought and published… hrmm. Mur, might it help you to sell the novel to a publisher if you had a signup list for “notify me when Keepisie’s becomes available” or something?

    Mur,

    The story was GREAT!!! It’s almost too bad you aren’t self publishing, since we would all get the book sooner!

    I agree with Chris, maybe a signup list would be cool and help you get a contract. I would sign up for sure right away!

    Keep up the hard work!

    Really enjoyed part 2 & 3 of the story! One thing I noticed however was when Barry got his jeans out of the closet at the hospital they were intact. If he had so much damage to his legs during the accident wouldn’t his pants be messed up? Wouldn’t the doctors/nurses have cut him out of his pants in the E.R.?

    In any case, the story really left me wanting to hear more.

    Wiregargoyle, thanks for catching something I didn’t think about. good eye. Or ear. Whatever. But you’re right.

    I liked Barry Koleman, Hero. I’m not much into Superhero fiction, but I’m seeing more of it now (there was a Superhero story on Escape Pod quite recently which I liked too).

    And the way way you introduced Keepsie’s Bar — that was a sly move :-) Now I want to know more about the novel!
