In addition to my already existing reading of "The Tell-Tale Heart," here's two more bits by Poe that I recorded simply because no one was here to stop me.

"The Haunted Palace"

"The Facts in the Case of M. Valdemar"

Let me know what you think.

I put up audio versions of the first two episode of Something Else a day ago, and got buried under something…so didn't post the headsup here. So…headsup.

Also, the latest chapter of Overkill is up.

Lastly, whatever you do, stay the hell away from The Hype Machine. It's a gigantic audio blog aggregator that churns out a couple hundred MP3s a day that I feel compelled to download and sample. It will consume your world. And your ears. Best so far is Chixdiggit's "I Remember You." Found that via Veritas Lux Mea. That and a picture of midriff licking. Just don't go to the site while nuns are watching you netsurf and you'll be fine.

Anyway, stay away from that aggregator, no matter what you do. It's a timesuck of unbelievable proportions. You've been warned.

So it occurs to me that my original plan isn't really valid in light of my New Year's resolution.

Here was the original plan:

1. Get Sunday Before You published. Done.

2. Get it sold out. Working on it.

3. Reprint it and the out of print Love Letters in a single bound book along with a third "book's worth" of poems and lyrics entitled What I Did On My Summer Vacation. This would be the "outtakes" of the previous two books and all the remaining poetry I had that was worth a damn that was theretofore unpublished. Vacation would be book-only, to try and inspire folks to buy the thing.

Now that everything's going up online…there's no reason not to proceed and get it published. So therefore, as of now, my third bound book has the working title "Broken as Designed," a line from one of the songs and an album title I unfortunately never got to use. Once I get it organized, you'll get it up here and it'll be in the pipeline to get published.

In other news, the latest Something Else is now available here which kicks off the third season.

And the latest chapter of Overkill is up here as well.

Somebody asked what was going on over at the Internet Archive, and yes, I am putting things are they are finished over there as well as the audio page. If you like the stuff you've downloaded from here that's listed there, slap it a review up, would you? Every little bit helps.

P.S. The Lady Porphyre has the best line I've read in a week's time: "I'm in the wrong place, but you're not." It's pretty much a summary of the poetry I've written to date, in eight words. She's just that way.

Okay, let's see…where are we?

Something Else #49, the third season opener, has a first draft completed.

I recorded "With Such Permanence as Time Has" this evening…I should have that up over the weekend. Nope, couldn't wait. It's up here.

And Next Wave #2 is now converted and online here.

First up, the latest chapter of Overkill has been posted here.

And the first three tracks of The Sunday Before You are online on the audio page:

"Mithradates - He Dead", "Your Body is an Alien Thing" and "Laughed to See Such Fun".

Okay, all the audio files I've created for my stuff (and in some cases, other people's stuff) is now linked up in one place here for your dancing and dining pleasure. Any updates to that page I'll post here, so fear not.

Also, in a few days http://audio.onetusk.com will be pointing there as well for convenience's sake.

Huzzah.
