Is it just me or did iTunes not pick this up? (he says as he downloads the mp3 from here so he can have something to listen to on the way to work tomorrow).

EVERY WEEK! ARGH!

I, too, manually downloaded the file - which is odd… Because I got ISBW just fine.
5. Mur replies at 7th December 2005 um 5:49 am :

Fixed.

Stupid WordPress… grumble.

Doug, ISBW doesn’t use WordPress, so I don’t have this hiccup.

Hi Mur,

It’s not a podcast but check out http://www.live365.com/stations/filk_com for your filk fix. I consider myself a music junkie and had to find out what “filk” was.

I won’t get to meet you in January but Barb has directions to say “Hi” for me.

Just listened to part 2… didn’t realize there was a part 3 till I got near the end. I enjoyed part one greatly, part two struck me as freaking brilliant! Loved it, wish I didn’t have to wait for part 3.

(I too am a music junkie but didn’t know what filk was).

Ok, maybe that will work. Just add the appropriate chevrons.

Awesome, awesome story. I completely didn’t see the ending to this part coming.

Can’t wait for the conclusion!

I’ve just recently been introduced to your podcast (thanks to Paul Tevis). And I’ve realy been enjoying your essays, stories and commentary. The superhero story from a few episodes ago was pretty unique.
You’re newest storiy Hearbreakers is really good. And I have no idea how it is going to end up. But I will be waiting with baited breath for its conclusion. Great stuff Mur! And thanks for pointing out the 2 Hurricane Katrina books out there. I’m sure to make those gifts to friends this Christmas.(and to myself ;-))

Been listening for just a while, but had to echo what others said here - part 2 of heartbreakers was great - looking forward to catching up to part 3! Hard to believe you haven’t sold any fiction (yet)…
