A few weeks ago I was turned on to Booked Podcast via their review of Christopher Dwyer’s novel When October Falls. I am always looking for more literature podcasts, and I’ve been a fan and friend of Dwyer’s for a long time, so when the two came together I did not hesitate to jump in. Livius Nedin and Robb Olson have not been doing Booked Podcast to very long yet, but they approach the format liked seasoned connoisseurs. It is the best kind of podcast; readers talking about books. Simple. Proven. Last week they took on Stranger Will, and were not only kind enough to give my book their time but were kind enough to offer truly humbling amounts of praise. If every I meet Livius and/or Robb in person, the beers are on me. I highly recommend you take a listen to their discussion of Stranger Will. http://www.bookedpodcast.com/2011/05/27/episode-9-stranger-will/ Then,…

I am a little late posting this tour stop; I have been off the internet grid for the last few days (enjoying a few days at the lake). Though, if I were smart I would play off the late post as a simple mis-translation of the date. That would be fitting to the topic of this newest post, all about translation in literature.

For the big three-ohhhh post on this blog tour I stop by Phil Jourdan's blog. Phil is best known, to me at least, as the crazy smart philosophy guy and mastermind of the band Paris and the Hiltons. He's a guy worth knowing now, because one day everyone will know him. Click here to read the guest post. Also, don’t forget that if you comment on all guest blog posts, you will get free stuff.

Today is my second of two (shed tear) stops at the always amazing Used Furniture Review. I love this site, so it's an honor to be a part of it twice. Today I write a bit about how book clubs have changed in our web 2.0 culture. I also use the post to highlight my own recent (and ongoing through May) experience with one of the cooler book clubs around, the Chuck Palahniuk fan site book club.

I have been a big, big fan of Ben Tanzer's podcast, This Podcast Will Change Your Life, for a long time. In fact, the podcast may be where I first discovered Mr. Tanzer. I can't remember; the beautiful memories just blur together sometimes. Mr. Tanzer was kind enough to talk with me for his podcast. This episode is unique in that we conducted the discussion over the phone. Usually his podcast episodes are done life, with a few beers involved. But don't worry, if you want the life, beer-filled Tanzer and Ross team, check out the episode of The Velvet Podcast that we recorded in Washington DC back in February.

Today is a two-fer. After my earlier post at Gloom Cupboard, here comes another, this one at Marie Schutt's blog. I write about a topic I've long pondered, the idea of a pinnacle medium for every creative idea. Mainly: is there a pinnacle medium? Click here to read the guest post.
