Great reasons to podcast…it is fun. Allows people to get to know you. Also, thanks for the comments and sharing your different podcasts – I’ve listened to Lincoln Park’s podcast rants – LOL – I’m going to check all these others out also.

My podcast is Homemade Stories on iTunes or shannoncason dot com.

Thanks for the great reasons for authors to do podcasting. I have done audio conferences and teleconferences as the featured speaker for different associations and some YouTube videos. So I thought doing my own podcast with a few tips from my book would be a new idea as a book promotion tool. I plan to listen to some of the podcasts you have done for more ideas and examples as well.

To start, I did a survey on Twitter to get an idea of how long my potential audience would be willing to listen. Then I made my podcast available from my website (http://www.shirleyfinelee.com) last week. It took a little time to figure out the recording application but the other prep was actually fun. As you said in your post, each podcast I do should better with practice – as I plan to do short weekly podcasts all of this month.

I am podcasting my new novel at http://www.robkaay.com(.) I am also a musician, and found it creatively satisfying to create music and sound effects behind my reading. In fact, I believe I have taken podcasting a step further, so I actually call my audible readings “Myric’s”.

[...] well as text, and the technology is actually pretty easy. I believe authors should have a podcast (5 reasons here), and several people have asked me how I make mine. I have a full module on this in the Author 2.0 [...]

I’ve considered podcasting, but I can’t make up my mind about it. Probably won’t podcast this release, but may podcast the first novel-length work.

I’ve been mulling this over for quite some time. I’ve actually started audio versions of my book several times, but – as you say – HATED the sound of my voice…so I gave it up.

I really need to get serious about it, though. Thanks for the boost!
