Thanks Marisa! I love this community of writers that is building around the Friday Flash movement, and the gorgeous Twitter. I too drink coffee in the mornings, like a little liquid cranking for my engine. Two cups, then onto tea by 11am. Then I have two cups of tea in the afternoon (when I am being disciplined).

Honestly, anyone would think that I was descended from inhabitants of the old British Empire. Oh, wait a minute….

As for sitting and writing, that’s the easiest and hardest thing in the world. At the same time. No getting away from it, so be gentle with yourself!

Did you really just say LOST schlost?

You are dead to me.

True Blood does rule, though.

Excellent. I’ve used Audacity quite often for screencasts. Very nice piece of software. It takes a bit of practice but once you’re comfortable with hearing your own voice, it’s smooth sailing.

Hi, Emma! Great interview. Enjoyed learning more about you.

Yes, I’m American, and Emma’s lovely English lilt adds to experiencing the world she weaved (or razed! heh) in post-apocalyptic London.

She is also generously supportive of other writers, with many kind and encouraging comments on our stories. I do wish I had her discipline. I know it’s a matter of just sitting…and writing, for goodness sake, but…

However, when I do finally sit down, there’s usually a cup of tea next to me. Earl Grey, hot. I know, I know. Coffee is really only good in the morning. For me anyway.

Great luck in all your new adventures, Emma!

And for the Collective (sort of Borg-ish, eh), thanks for the interview. Good stuff!

Hi Shane,

I use Audacity, which is wonderful: easy to use and free! I read it myself, and have been told that works well for American listeners especially as my English accent helps to create the atmosphere of post-apocalyptic London.

I couldn’t imagine hiring someone else to read it – for financial reasons for one thing, but also because I wanted people to hear me reading it – I think it creates a greater intimacy and sense of connection when it is the author reading their own work.

Oh yeah. Where would I be without my soft porn?

Oh that’s right, the Internet

True Blood Season 2 – “February 2010″ (FXUK.com)

Which also reminds me; Supernatural Season 5 starts February 10th on Living. Woot!

Hello Emma. Good for you with the podcasting route!
I’ve never heard your podcasts, so I’m curious; what programs do you use? Audacity? Do you read it yourself or hire voiceover people?

Regards,
Shane
