A bite-sized episode, a personal recommendation for a waterfall of inspiration. Amanda Palmer's "The Art of Asking or How I learned to Stop Worrying and Let People Help" is a fantastic play-by-play of Amanda's life as a street performer, crowd-funding pioneer, TED speaker and lead singer/songwriter of The Dresden Dolls. She also gives detailed accounts of her relationship with Neil Gaiman, celebrated English author of short fiction, novels, comic books, graphic novels, nonfiction, audio theatre, and films. His works include the comic book series The Sandman and novels Stardust, American Gods, Coraline, and The Graveyard Book. Most importantly, Amanda gives great insight into what it means to be an artist.The theme song "Shane’s Car Got Fixed" was written and recorded by Shane Izykowski and mastered by Kyle Mahaney.Show Notes:Amanda Fucking PalmerThe Dresden DollsJim Balent & Holly Golightly’s Broadsword ComicsAmanda Palmer’s TED TalkNeil GaimanAudible Audio Book of “The Art of Asking”To purchase “The Art of Asking”

Surprise! You might have noticed we already did an episode about The Golem and the Jinni by Helene Wecker before. I wanted a do-over and a bit more of an in-depth discussion on the story. #AlltheTales was the perfect time to try again. A few of the questions we used to form our discussion were lifted straight out of the great online book club, NovelTea Book Club, run by our pal Kristin of My Life as a Tea Cup. Please check this thread out and the book club if you'd like great conversations and book recommendations. (Related: Kristin was on our episode discussing Amanda Palmer's The Art of Asking!)
