Banter:

It’s been a long chapter, and an even longer week for me, so I’ll beg your forgiveness that there’s no banter this week.  I hope you enjoyed the cliffhanger last week and the subsequent resolution in today’s episode.   As always, please keep the feedback coming.  There are new iTunes reviews up as well as some great comments on the website and even a few voice mail calls.  But the more the merrier as we gear up for the second feedback episode.

We’re into the back half of the book now so expect things to start ratcheting up very quickly as Ciris continues her pursuit.  Who is Xavier Allenrod?  What happened that Briggs wants both buried and fixed?  What will Ciris do now that she’s on her own?  What will happen when Chen catches up to Ciris and the two friends and former colleagues find themselves with opposing agendas?  And what about that viris, and the hacker that tipped this whole thing off in the first place?

Some of these questions will be answered next week.  The others may just keep you guessing right up until the very end.

See you here next week for Episode 12

After all that it’s a cliffhanger ending and I have a few announcements…

First and foremost, by all measures The Boom Effect auction was a huge success.  My heartfelt thanks go out to each and everyone of you who participated in some way or another, even if…especially if…all you did was to pass the word along.  Second, there will be some website updates coming in the next few days, and finally I’m looking towards the next feedback episode.  So if you’d like to contribute to the ongoing discussion of the novel, please feel free.  All of the contact information is below, and you can of course leave coments on the website blog, or reviews over at iTunes.

There’s been a lot of content and chatter from me recently. Between that and a sore throat developing, I truly keep it short this week with no end of episode banter.  See you back here next week when we find out what Richardson knows, and the final straw in Tecgui and Brigg’s conspiracy of silence sends Ciris over the edge…

With over two and a half hours of feedback dropped earlier in the week, I try and keep this one short.  However, if you listened to that feedback, you know that I didn’t get the chance to tackle some of the website comments that have been left.  Today, I rectify that with apologies to their authors.

And the feedback episode comes to a conclusion  By the time we’re all done, Christiana Ellis,  Michael Spence and I have been recording for almost three hours as we finish up our discussion about your feedback.  And then I realize….I’d forgotten a bunch more.  My profound apologies for the slip of my mind and I promise you I’ll cover it in the near future.  Thanks for listening to this mini-marathon and I look to see you here on Friday for Episode 8

SPOILER WARNING:  If you have not listened through the end of Episode 06, you’ll want to hold off on this feedback episode for now.  The three of us go down a lot of different tangents and rabbit holes that can and will spoil things if you’re not caught up yet.  Don’t say you weren’t warned.

Welcome back to the second of three 50ish minute segments of feedback.   Christiana Ellis,  Michael Spence and I pick up right where we left of yesterday and continue our discussion of your feedback.  Again, as a reminder there is no new chapter in this post.  That’ll come on Friday in the form of Episode 8.  But if you’re interested in what you all had to say, I encourage you to take a listen.  Also at the end there’s a small surprise for you.

SPOILER WARNING:  If you have not listened through the end of Episode 06, you’ll want to hold off on this feedback episode for now.  The three of us go down a lot of different tangents and rabbit holes that can and will spoil things if you’re not caught up yet.  Don’t say you weren’t warned.

Part 1.

Yeah, I said it.  Part one…of three.  Join author P.C. Haring, along with Christiana Ellis, and Michael Spence as we sit down and go through most of the feedback received on the first six episodes of the novel. There’s no new chapter content in this round of audio.  So if you’re looking for the next chapter…sorry.  But sit down for a spell and join us as we discuss your feedback and see where the conversation takes us.

SPOILER WARNING:  If you have not listened through the end of Episode 06, you’ll want to hold off on this feedback episode for now.  The three of us go down a lot of different tangents and rabbit holes that can and will spoil things if you’re not caught up yet.  Don’t say you weren’t warned.

Only a few things.  First off, apologies if last week’s episode went too long for your tastes.  If it’s any consolation, chapter 5 should be the longest in the production.
