WISB Podcast: Chapter Ten (On the Brink)
It’s here. James has survived an attack by one of Luthien’s beasts, but there is something mysterious about that creature. Something sinister. The continent of Traea is a strange place, with magic and monsters of all shapes and sizes. James is only beginning to understand this.

WISB Podcast: Another Late Episode (I Have Jackasses For Neighbors)
I had hoped to have the episode up by now, but my upstairs neighbors have made editing and recording essentially impossible for the last four hours or so. I’m the kind of person who edits and writes when there is either complete silence, music, or so much noise that the sounds blend together (such as in a cafeteria). Sadly, my upstairs neighbors think it’s amusing to stomp up and down and let their dog bark whenever it damn well pleases. I’ve been recording little bits between their noise, which, sadly, has been creeping into the recording. I gave up when it took me almost an hour to record three pages worth of material (that amounts to about eight minutes of audio). Even with my talent for screwing up simple words when speaking them out loud, this is a ridiculous amount of time to devote to recording something. As such, I gave up and will release the episode tomorrow afternoon. What does this mean for WISB? I’m going to start recording episodes in the morning when my neighbors are supposed to be at work. I will also start leaving little presents on their door mat as a thank you for their wonderful asshole-ish behavior. Apparently having the cops enforce the city’s noise ordinance once for a party that ran for five hours (until almost two in the morning) was not enough. I will get my revenge! In any case, I apologize for the delay. I suspect a lot of you are behind on listening anyway, since I’ve been releasing the episodes every day since the 1st of June. This will give you a chance to play catchup (and donate $10). Thanks for your patience and support.
WISB Podcast: Chapter Nine (Of Omens and Night Walks)
The new episode is here. Later than I expected, but it’s here nonetheless, and during the evening (which is when I said it would arrive). Chapter Nine introduces something new and wonderful, and something utterly terrifying. I won’t say anything more, though. You’ll have to listen! Chapter Nine — Download (mp3) Thanks for listening.

WISB Podcast: Chapter Eight (Swords and Things)
It’s here! The next chapter. Thanks for your patience. I told you I’d get it up in the morning, and so I have. Things are, of course, heating up for yet another major plot point, which you’ll get in Chapter Nine. This chapter finds James meeting his first physical challenge, one which could make or break him if he isn’t up to the task. Chapter Eight — Download (mp3) Thanks for listening.

WISB Podcast: Running Late
I wanted to let everyone know that I’m running late on getting the next episode up. The chapter is edited, but I didn’t get home until a lot later than I had expected. As such, I won’t be able to get the episode up tonight, in part because I don’t want to record my voice so late at night. At 9 PM, it’s not a problem, but it’s after 11 at the moment and I like to avoid pissing off my neighbors, even though they don’t show me the same courtesy. But there is good news: I will catch up tomorrow. I’ve split Ch. 8 into two chapters anyway, which means I can release the first half (now just Ch. 8) tomorrow (before noon) and the second half (now Ch. 9) at some point in the early evening. I’m not going to stay behind this early in the project (mostly because I know it will become much more difficult to keep the day-by-day schedule once June comes to a close). Thanks for your support and understanding!
WISB Podcast: Chapter Seven (The Council in Darkness)
The new episode is here after a long process of editing (which may have actually killed me a little inside). Things are heating up in the story. The moon has gone dark, James continues to worry about Laura and battle with his guilt over his influence on the events consuming Arlin City, and Pea may harbor secrets that could answer some the mysteries surrounding everything.
