Each week, we'll have a definition from the Devil's Lexicographer himself – Ambrose Bierce. Over the course of 30 years, Bierce nearly weekly wrote a cynical definition of a common word, sometimes consisting of poems, which he sold to various newspapers and periodicals. After 30 years, he collected all of these into one volume which came to be called The Devil's Dictionary. In keeping with the spirit of its creation, we'll hear one of his jocular definitions before we begin today's show.   So, the Word for the Week is Infancy, and here to read it is Ambrose Bierce himself:   INFANCY, n. The period of our lives when, according to Wordsworth, "Heaven lies about us." The world begins lying about us pretty soon afterward.   Thank you Mr. Bierce.   And now, Michael Strogoff, Part 8 of 9, by Jules Verne.   Follow this link and watch the new video walkthrough using PocketBook.   Follow this link to get The Audiobook Library Card for a special price of $9.99/month       Follow this link to subscribe to our YouTube Channel:       Follow this link to subscribe to the Arsène Lupin Podcast:     Follow this link to follow us on Instagram:     Follow this link to follow us on Facebook:

Le 25 janvier 2026,  l'équipage de Sodebo Ultim 3 est entré dans l'histoire en s'emparant du Trophée Jules Verne en 40 jours, 10 heures et 45 minutes. Responsable de la navigation à bord, Benjamin Schwartz a été l'un des artisans de ce nouveau temps de référence. L'occasion de réécouter l'épisode d'Into the Wind consacré à ce marin au parcours atypique.-- C'est l'histoire d'un marin très recherché, qui enchaîne embarquements et coups d'éclat, mais n'a pas vraiment suivi les voies d'accès traditionnelles à la voile de compétition. Né à Lyon dans une famille où personne ne pratique le bateau, c'est grâce à... son prof de judo qu'il découvre la voile en Méditerranée. C'est là qu'il va progressivement faire son trou et se spécialiser dans l'électronique et la navigation sur des bateaux de propriétaires, de plus en plus gros, tout en suivant des études en géologie à Lyon.En 2014, il embarque sur l'ex VOR 70 SFS avec Lionel Péan, qui sillonne en course toute la Grande Bleue. Deux ans et demi plus tard, début 2017, il tente sa chance et candidate chez Dongfeng : il participe à la campagne victorieuse de Charles Caudrelier et des siens dans la Volvo Ocean Race, en charge, dans l'équipe technique, de l'électronique.Cette fois c'est le grand bain, il a été repéré et est appelé par Spindrift, tandis que l'équipe Dongfeng l'encourage à assumer ses envies de Figaro, lui qui n'a jamais couru en solitaire. Il se jette à l'eau en 2019 et le bizuth explose sur la Solitaire avec une 6e place et même, du jamais vu, un titre de champion de France élite de course au large.Désormais installé à Lorient, son téléphone sonne de plus en plus souvent : tout en enchaînant les stand-by et les tentatives de Trophée Jules Verne avec Spindrift, il gagne le championnat d'Europe mixte de course au large avec Marie Riou, est recruté pour The Ocean Race Europe sur Corum, puis navigue à bord d'Holcim-PRB sur The Ocean Race, où il finit skipper après l'affaire Escoffier.Fin 2023, il doit participer à la Transat Jacques Vabre avec Nicolas Troussel, mais le sponsor finit par renoncer après un démâtage sur le Défi Azimut. En 2024, il découvre le Class40 avec Fabien Delahaye (1er et 2e sur la Normandy Channel Race et Québec Saint-Malo) et le duo Alberto Riva-Jean Marre (2e sur la Niji 40). Il intègre le team Gitana pour cet hiver, avant que le maxi-trimaran Edmond de Rothschild ne démâte à Gibraltar. Le téléphone sonne quelques jours plus tard et l'équipage de Sodebo le récupère pour le Trophée Jules Verne.Pour la saison prochaine, il n'a rien de prévu, pour le moment. Ça ne saurait durer...Rediffusé le 20 février 2026Diffusé le 15 novembre 2024Générique : In Closing – Days PastPost-production : Grégoire LevillainHébergé par Ausha.

Transcript of Interview with Kevin J. Anderson Jo: Kevin J. Anderson is the multi award-winning and internationally bestselling author of over 190 books across different genres, with over 24 million copies in print across 34 languages. He's also the Director of Publishing at Western Colorado University, as well as a publisher at WordFire Press, an editor, a rock album lyricist, and he's co-written Dune books and worked on the recent Dune movies and TV show. Welcome back to the show, Kevin. Kevin: Well, thanks, Joanna. I always love being on the show. Jo: And we're probably on like 200 books and like 50 million copies in print. I mean, how hard is it to keep up with all that? Kevin: Well, it was one of those where we actually did have to do a list because my wife was like, we really should know the exact number. And I said, well, who can keep track because that one went out of print and that's an omnibus. So does it count as something else? Well, she counted them. But that was a while ago and I didn't keep track, so… Jo: Right. Kevin: I'm busy and I like to write. That's how I've had a long-term career. It's because I don't hate what I'm doing. I've got the best job in the world. I love it. Jo: So that is where I wanted to start. You've been on the show multiple times. People can go back and have a listen to some of the other things we've talked about. I did want to talk to you today about managing multiple priorities. You are a director of publishing at Western Colorado University. I am currently doing a full-time master's degree as well as writing a novel, doing this podcast, my Patreon, all the admin of running a business, and I feel like I'm busy. Then I look at what you do and I'm like, this is crazy. People listening are also busy. We're all busy, right. But I feel like it can't just be writing and one job—you do so much. So how do you manage your time, juggle priorities, your calendar, and all that? Kevin: I do it brilliantly. Is that the answer you want? I do it brilliantly. It is all different things. If I were just working on one project at a time, like, okay, I'm going to start a new novel today and I've got nothing else on my plate. Well, that would take me however long to do the research and the plot. I'm a full-on plotter outliner, so it would take me all the while to do—say it's a medieval fantasy set during the Crusades. Well, then I'd have to spend months reading about the Crusades and researching them and maybe doing some travel. Then get to the point where I know the characters enough that I can outline the book and then I start writing the book, and then I start editing the book, which is a part that I hate. I love doing the writing, I hate doing the editing. Then you edit a whole bunch. To me, there are parts of that that are like going to the dentist—I don't like it—and other parts of it are fun. So by having numerous different projects at different stages, all of which require different skill sets or different levels of intensity— I can be constantly switching from one thing to another and basically be working at a hundred percent capacity on everything all the time. And I love doing this. So I'll be maybe writing a presentation, which is what I was doing before we got on this call this morning, because I'm giving a new keynote presentation at Superstars, which is in a couple of weeks. That's another thing that was on our list—I helped run Superstars. I founded that 15 years ago and it's been going on. So I'll be giving that talk. Then we just started classes for my publishing grad students last week. So I'm running those classes, which meant I had to write all of the classes before they started, and I did that. I've got a Kickstarter that will launch in about a month. I'm getting the cover art for that new book and I've got to write up the Kickstarter campaign. And I have to write the book. I like to have the book at least drafted before I run a Kickstarter for it. So I'm working on that. A Kickstarter pre-launch page should be up a month before the Kickstarter launches, and the Kickstarter has to launch in early March, so that means early February I have to get the pre-launch page up. So there's all these dominoes. One thing has to go before the next thing can go. During the semester break between fall semester—we had about a month off—I had a book for Blackstone Publishing and Weird Tales Presents that I had to write, and I had plotted it and I thought if I don't get this written during the break, I'm going to get distracted and I won't finish it. So I just buckled down and I wrote the 80,000-word book during the month of break. This is like Little House on the Prairie with dinosaurs. It's an Amish community that wants to go to simpler times. So they go back to the Pleistocene era where they're setting up farms and the brontosaurus gets into the cornfield all the time. Jo: That sounds like a lot of fun. Kevin: That's fun. So with the grad students that I have every week, we do all kinds of lectures. Just to reassure people, I am not at all an academic. I could not stand my English classes where you had to write papers analysing this and that. My grad program is all hands-on, pragmatic. You actually learn how to be a publisher when you go through it. You learn how to design covers, you learn how to lay things out, you learn how to edit, you learn how to do fonts. One of the things that I do among the lectures every week or every other week, I just give them something that I call the real world updates. Like, okay, this is the stuff that I, Kevin, am working on in my real world career because the academic career isn't like the real world. So I just go listing about, oh, I designed these covers this week, and I wrote the draft of this dinosaur homestead book, and then I did two comic scripts, and then I had to edit two comic scripts. We just released my third rock album that's based on my fantasy trilogy. And I have to write a keynote speech for Superstars. And I was on Joanna Penn's podcast. And here's what I'm doing. Sometimes it's a little scary because I read it and I go, holy crap, I did a lot of stuff this week. Jo: So I manage everything on Google Calendar. Do you have systems for managing all this? Because you also have external publishers, you have actual dates when things actually have to happen. Do you manage that yourself or does Rebecca, your wife and business partner, do that? How do you manage your calendar? Kevin: Well, Rebecca does most of the business stuff, like right now we have to do a bunch of taxes stuff because it's the new year and things. She does that and I do the social interaction and the creating and the writing and stuff. My assistant Marie Whittaker, she's a big project management person and she's got all these apps on how to do project managing and all these sorts of things. She tried to teach me how to use these apps, but it takes so much time and organisation to fill the damn things out. So it's all in my head. I just sort of know what I have to do. I just put it together and work on it and just sort of know this thing happens next and this thing happens next. I guess one of the ways is when I was in college, I put myself through the university by being a waiter and a bartender. As a waiter and a bartender, you have to juggle a million different things at once. This guy wants a beer and that lady wants a martini, and that person needs to pay, and this person's dinner is up on the hot shelf so you've got to deliver it before it gets cold. It's like I learned how to do millions of things and keep them all organised, and that's the way it worked. And I've kept that as a skill all the way through and it has done me good, I think. Jo: I think that there is a difference between people's brains, right? So I'm pretty chaotic in terms of my creative process. I'm not a plotter like you. I'm pretty chaotic, basically. But I come across— Kevin: I've met you. Yes. Jo: I know. But I'm also extremely organised and I plan everything. That's part of, I think, being an introvert and part of dealing with the anxiety of the world is having a plan or a schedule. So I think the first thing to say to people listening is they don't have to be like you, and they don't have to be like me. It's kind of a personal thing. I guess one thing that goes beyond both of us is, earlier you said you basically work at a hundred percent capacity. So let's say there's somebody listening and they're like, well, I'm at a hundred percent capacity too, and it might be kids, it might be a day job, as well as writing and all that. And then something happens, right? You mentioned the real world. I seem to remember that you broke your leg or something. Kevin: Yes. Jo: And the world comes crashing down through all your plans, whether they're written or in your head. So how do you deal with a buffer of something happening, or you're sick, or Rebecca's sick, or the cat needs to go to the vet? Real life—how do you deal with that? Kevin: Well, that really does cause problems. We had, in fact, just recently—so I'm always working at, well, let's be realistic, like 95% of Kevin capacity. Well, my wife, who does some of the stuff here around the house and she does the business things, she just went through 15 days of the worst crippling migraine string that she's had in 30 years. So she was curled up in a foetal position on the bed for 15 days and she couldn't do any of her normal things. I mean, even unloading the dishwasher and stuff like that. So if I'm at 95% capacity and suddenly I have to pick up an extra 50%, that causes real problems. So I drink lots of coffee, and I get less sleep, and you try to bring in some help. I mean, we have Rebecca's assistant and the assistant has a 20-year-old daughter who came in to help us do some of the dishes and laundry and housework stuff. You mentioned before, it was a year ago. I always go out hiking and mountain climbing and that's where I write. I dictate. I have a digital recorder that I go off of, and that's how I'm so productive. I go out, I walk in the forest and I come home with 5,000 words done in a couple of hours, and I always do that. That's how I write. Well, I was out on a mountain and I fell off the mountain and I broke my ankle and had to limp a mile back to my car. So that sort of put a damper on me hiking. I had a book that I had to write and I couldn't go walking while I was dictating it. It has been a very long time since I had to sit at a keyboard and create chapters that way. Jo: Mm-hmm. Kevin: And my brain doesn't really work like that. It works in an audio—I speak this stuff instead. So I ended up training myself because I had a big boot on my foot. I would sit on the back porch and I would look out at the mountains here in Colorado and I would put my foot up on another chair and I'd sit in the lawn chair and I'd kind of close my eyes and I would dictate my chapters that way. It was not as effective, but it was plan B. So that's how I got it done. I did want to mention something. When I'm telling the students this every week—this is what I did and here's the million different things—one of the students just yesterday made a comment that she summarised what I'm doing and it kind of crystallised things for me. She said that to get so much done requires, and I'm quoting now, “a balance of planning, sprinting, and being flexible, while also making incremental forward progress to keep everything moving together.” So there's short-term projects like fires and emergencies that have to be done. You've got to keep moving forward on the novel, which is a long-term project, but that short story is due in a week. So I've got to spend some time doing that one. Like I said, this Kickstarter's coming up, so I have to put in the order for the cover art, because the cover art needs to be done so I can put it on the pre-launch page for the Kickstarter. It is a balance of the long-term projects and the short-term projects. And I'm a workaholic, I guess, and you are too. Jo: Yes. Kevin: You totally are. Yes. Jo: I get that you're a workaholic, but as you said before, you enjoy it too. So you enjoy doing all these things. It's just sometimes life just gets in the way, as you said. One of the other things that I think is interesting—so sometimes physical stuff gets in the way, but in your many decades now of the successful author business, there's also the business side. You've had massive success with some of your books, and I'm sure that some of them have just kind of shrivelled into nothing. There have been good years and bad years. So how do we, as people who want a long-term career, think about making sure we have a buffer in the business for bad years and then making the most of good years? Kevin: Well, that's one thing—to realise that if you're having a great year, you might not always have a great year. That's kind of like the rockstar mentality—I've got a big hit now, so I'm always going to have a big hit. So I buy mansions and jets, and then of course the next album flops. So when you do have a good year, you plan for the long term. You set money aside. You build up plan B and you do other things. I have long been a big advocate for making sure that you have multiple income streams. You don't just write romantic epic fantasies and that's all you do. That might be what makes your money now, but the reading taste could change next year. They might want something entirely different. So while one thing is really riding high, make sure that you're planting a bunch of other stuff, because that might be the thing that goes really, really well the next year. I made my big stuff back in the early nineties—that was when I started writing for Star Wars and X-Files, and that's when I had my New York Times bestselling run. I had 11 New York Times bestsellers in one year, and I was selling like millions of copies. Now, to be honest, when you have a Star Wars bestseller, George Lucas keeps almost all of that. You don't keep that much of it. But little bits add up when you're selling millions of copies. So it opened a lot of doors for me. So I kept writing my own books and I built up my own fans who liked the Star Wars books and they read some of my other things. If you were a bestselling trad author, you could keep writing the same kind of book and they would keep throwing big advances at you. It was great. And then that whole world changed and they stopped paying those big advances, and paperback, mass market paperback books just kind of went away. A lot of people probably remember that there was a time for almost every movie that came out, every big movie that came out, you could go into the store and buy a paperback book of it—whether it was an Avengers movie or a Star Trek movie or whatever, there was a paperback book. I did a bunch of those and that was really good work. They would pay me like $15,000 to take the script and turn it into a book, and it was done in three weeks. They don't do that anymore. I remember I was on a panel at some point, like, what would you tell your younger self? What advice would you give your younger self? I remember when I was in the nineties, I was turning down all kinds of stuff because I had too many book projects and I was never going to quit writing. I was a bestselling author, so I had it made. Well, never, ever assume you have it made because the world changes under you. They might not like what you're doing or publishing goes in a completely different direction. So I always try to keep my radar up and look at new things coming up. I still write some novels for trad publishers. This dinosaur homestead one is for Blackstone and Weird Tales. They're a trad publisher. I still publish all kinds of stuff as an indie for WordFire Press. I'm reissuing a bunch of my trad books that I got the rights back and now they're getting brand new life as I run Kickstarters. One of my favourite series is “Dan Shamble, Zombie P.I.” It's like the Addams Family meets The Naked Gun. It's very funny. It's a private detective who solves crimes with monsters and mummies and werewolves and things. I sold the first one to a trad publisher, and actually, they bought three. I said, okay, these are fast, they're fun, they're like 65,000 words. You laugh all the way through it, and you want the next one right away. So let's get these out like every six months, which is like lightning speed for trad publishing. They just didn't think that was a good idea. They brought them out a year and a half apart. It was impossible to build up momentum that way. They wanted to drop the series after the third book, and I just begged them—please give it one more chance. So they bought one more book for half as much money and they brought it out again a year and a half later. And also, it was a trad paperback at $15. And the ebook was—Joanna, can you guess what their ebook was priced at? Jo: $15. Kevin: $15. And they said, gee, your ebook sales are disappointing. I said, well, no, duh. I mean, I am jumping around—I'm going like, but you should have brought these out six months apart. You should have had the ebook, like the first one at $4. Jo: But you're still working with traditional publishers, Kevin? Kevin: I'm still working with them on some, and I'm a hybrid. There are some projects that I feel are better served as trad books, like the big Dune books and stuff. I want those all over the place and they can cash in on the movie momentum and stuff. But I got the rights back to the Dan Shamble stuff. The fans kept wanting me to do more, and so I published a couple of story collections and they did fine. But I was making way more money writing Dune books and things. Then they wanted a new novel. So I went, oh, okay. I did a new novel, which I just published at WordFire. But again, it did okay, but it wasn't great. I thought, well, I better just focus on writing these big ticket things. But I really liked writing Dan Shamble. Somebody suggested, well, if the fans want it so much, why don't you run a Kickstarter? I had never run a Kickstarter before, and I kind of had this wrong attitude. I thought Kickstarters were for, “I'm a starving author, please give me money.” And that's not it at all. It's like, hey, if you're a fan, why don't you join the VIP club and you get the books faster than anybody else? So I ran a Kickstarter for my first Dan Shamble book, and it made three times what the trad publisher was paying me. And I went, oh, I kind of like this model. So I have since done like four other Dan Shamble novels through Kickstarters, made way more money that way. And we just sold—we can't give any details yet—but we have just sold it. It will be a TV show. There's a European studio that is developing it as a TV show, and I'm writing the pilot and I will be the executive producer. Jo: Fantastic. Kevin: So I kept that zombie detective alive because I loved it so much. Jo: And it's going to be all over the place years later, I guess. Just in terms of—given I've been in this now, I guess 2008 really was when I got into indie—and over the time I've been doing this, I've seen people rise and then disappear. A lot of people have disappeared. There are reasons, burnout or maybe they were just done. Kevin: Yes. Jo: But in terms of the people that you've seen, the characteristics, I guess, of people who don't make it versus people who do make it for years. And we are not saying that everyone should be a writer for decades at all. Some people do just have maybe one or two books. What do you think are the characteristics of those people who do make it long-term? Kevin: Well, I think it's realistic expectations. Like, again, this was trad, but my first book I sold for $4,000, and I thought, well, that's just $4,000, but we're going to sell book club rights, and we're goingn to sell foreign rights, and it's going to be optioned for movies. And the $4,000 will be like, that's just the start. I was planning out all this extra money coming from it, and it didn't even earn its $4,000 advance back and nothing else happened with it. Well, it has since, because I've since reissued it myself, pushed it and I made more money that way. But it's a slow burn. You build your career. You start building your fan base and then your next one will sell maybe better than the first one did. Then you keep writing it, and then you make connections, and then you get more readers and you learn how to expand your stuff better. You've got to prepare for the long haul. I would suggest that if you publish your very first book on KU, don't quit your day job the next day. Not everybody can or should be a full-time writer. We here in America need to have something that pays our health insurance. That is one of the big reasons why I am running this graduate program at Western Colorado University—because as a university professor, I get wonderful healthcare. I'm teaching something that I love, and I'm frankly doing a very good job at it because our graduates—something like 60% of them are now working as writers or publishers or working in the publishing world. So that's another thing. I guess what I do when I'm working on it is I kind of always say yes to the stuff that's coming in. If an opportunity comes—hey, would you like a graphic novel on this?—and I go, yes, I'd love to do that. Could you write a short story for this anthology? Sure, I'd love to do that. I always say yes, and I get overloaded sometimes. But I learned my lesson. It was quite a few years ago where I was really busy. I had all kinds of book deadlines and I was turning down books that they were offering me. Again, this was trad—book contracts that had big advances on them. And anthology editors were asking me. I was really busy and everybody was nagging me—Kevin, you work too hard. And my wife Rebecca was saying, Kevin, you work too hard. So I thought, I had it made. I had all these bestsellers, everything was going on. So I thought, alright, I've got a lot of books under contract. I'll just take a sabbatical. I'll say no for a year. I'll just catch up. I'll finish all these things that I've got. I'll just take a breather and finish things. So for that year, anybody who asked me—hey, do you want to do this book project?—well, I'd love to, but I'm just saying no. And would you do this short story for an anthology? Well, I'd love to, but not right now. Thanks. And I just kind of put them off. So I had a year where I could catch up and catch my breath and finish the stuff. And after that, I went, okay, I am back in the game again. Let's start taking these book offers. And nothing. Just crickets. And I went, well, okay. Well, you were always asking before—where are all these book deals that you kept offering me? Oh, we gave them to somebody else. Jo: This is really difficult though, because on the one hand—well, first of all, it's difficult because I wanted to take a bit of a break. So I'm doing this full-time master's and you are also teaching people in a master's program, right. So I have had to say no to a lot of things in order to do this course. And I imagine the people on your course would have to do the same thing. There's a lot of rewards, but they're different rewards and it kind of represents almost a midlife pivot for many of us. So how do we balance that then—the stepping away with what might lead us into something new? I mean, obviously this is a big deal. I presume most of the people on your course, they're older like me. People have to give stuff up to do this kind of thing. So how do we manage saying yes and saying no? Kevin: Well, I hate to say this, but you just have to drink more coffee and work harder for that time. Yes, you can say no to some things. My thing was I kind of shut the door and I just said, I'm just going to take a break and I'm going to relax. I could have pushed my capacity and taken some things so that I wasn't completely off the game board. One of the things I talk about is to avoid burnout. If you want a long-term career, and if you're working at 120% of your capacity, then you're going to burn out. I actually want to mention something. Johnny B. Truant just has a new book out called The Artisan Author. I think you've had him on the show, have you? Jo: Yes, absolutely. Kevin: He says a whole bunch of the stuff in there that I've been saying for a long time. He's analysing these rapid release authors that are a book every three weeks. And they're writing every three weeks, every four weeks, and that's their business model. I'm just like, you can't do that for any length of time. I mean, I'm a prolific writer. I can't write that fast. That's a recipe for burnout, I think. I love everything that I'm doing, and even with this graduate program that I'm teaching, I love teaching it. I mean, I'm talking about subjects that I love, because I love publishing. I love writing. I love cover design. I love marketing. I love setting up your newsletters. I mean, this isn't like taking an engineering course for me. This is something that I really, really love doing. And quite honestly, it comes across with the students. They're all fired up too because they see how much I love doing it and they love doing it. One of the projects that they do—we get a grant from Draft2Digital every year for $5,000 so that we do an anthology, an original anthology that we pay professional rates for. So they put out their call for submissions. This year it was Into the Deep Dark Woods. And we commissioned a couple stories for it, but otherwise it was open to submissions. And because we're paying professional rates, they get a lot of submissions. I have 12 students in the program right now. They got 998 stories in that they had to read. Jo: Wow. Kevin: They were broken up into teams so they could go through it, but that's just overwhelming. They had to read, whatever that turns out to be, 50 stories a week that come in. Then they write the rejections, and then they argue over which ones they're going to accept, and then they send the contracts, and then they edit them. And they really love it. I guess that's the most important thing about a career—you've got to have an attitude that you love what you're doing. If you don't love this, please find a more stable career, because this is not something you would recommend for the faint of heart. Jo: Yes, indeed. I guess one of the other considerations, even if we love it, the industry can shift. Obviously you mentioned the nineties there—things were very different in the nineties in many, many ways. Especially, let's say, pre-internet times, and when trad pub was really the only way forward. But you mentioned the rapid release, the sort of book every month. Let's say we are now entering a time where AI is bringing positives and negatives in the same way that the internet brought positives and negatives. We're not going to talk about using it, but what is definitely happening is a change. Industry-wise—for example, people can do a book a day if they want to generate books. That is now possible. There are translations, you know. Our KDP dashboard in America, you have a button now to translate everything into Spanish if you want. You can do another button that makes it an audiobook. So we are definitely entering a time of challenge, but if you look back over your career, there have been many times of challenge. So is this time different? Or do you face the same challenges every time things shift? Kevin: It's always different. I've always had to take a breath and step back and then reinvent myself and come back as something else. One of the things with a long-term career is you can't have a long-term career being the hot new thing. You can start out that way—like, this is the brand new author and he gets a big boost as the best first novel or something like that—but that doesn't work for 20 years. I mean, you've got to do something else. If you're the sexy young actress, well, you don't have a 50-year career as the sexy young actress. One of the ones I'm loving right now is Linda Hamilton, who was the sexy young actress in Terminator, and then a little more mature in the TV show Beauty and the Beast, where she was this huge star. Then she's just come back now. I think she's in her mid-fifties. She's in Stranger Things and she was in Resident Alien and she's now this tough military lady who's getting parts all over the place. She's reinvented herself. So I like to say that for my career, I've crashed and burned and resurrected myself. You might as well call me the Doctor because I've just come back in so many different ways. You can't teach an old dog new tricks, but— If you want to stay around, no matter how old of a dog you are, you've got to learn new tricks. And you've got to keep learning, and you've got to keep trying new things. I started doing indie publishing probably around the time you did—2009, something like that. I was in one of these great positions where I was a trad author and I had a dozen books that I wrote that were all out of print. I got the rights back to them because back then they let books go out of print and they gave the rights back without a fight. So I suddenly found myself with like 12 titles that I could just put up. I went, oh, okay, let's try this. I was kind of blown away that that first novel that they paid me $4,000 for that never even earned it back—well, I just put it up on Kindle and within one year I made more than $4,000. I went, I like this, I've got to figure this out. That's how I launched WordFire Press. Then I learned how to do everything. I mean, back in those days, you could do a pretty clunky job and people would still buy it. Then I learned how to do it better. Jo: That time is gone. Kevin: Yes. I learned how to do it better, and then I learned how to market it. Then I learned how to do print on demand books. Then I learned how to do box sets and different kinds of marketing. I dove headfirst into my newsletter to build my fan base because I had all the Star Wars stuff and X-Files stuff and later it was the Dune stuff. I had this huge fan base, but I wanted that fan base to read the Kevin Anderson books, the Dan Shamble books and everything. The only way to get that is if you give them a personal touch to say, hey buddy, if you liked that one, try this one. And the way to do that is you have to have access to them. So I started doing social media stuff before most people were doing social media stuff. I killed it on MySpace. I can tell you that. I had a newsletter that we literally printed on paper and we stuck mailing labels on. It went out to 1,200 people that we put in the mailbox. Jo: Now you're doing that again with Kickstarter, I guess. But I guess for people listening, what are you learning now? How are you reinventing yourself now in this new phase we are entering? Kevin: Well, I guess the new thing that I'm doing now is expanding my Kickstarters into more. So last year, the biggest Kickstarter that I've ever had, I ran last year. It was this epic fantasy trilogy that I had trad published and I got the rights back. They had only published it in trade paperback. So, yes, I reissued the books in nice new hardcovers, but I also upped the game to do these fancy bespoke editions with leather embossed covers and end papers and tipped in ribbons and slip cases and all kinds of stuff and building that. I did three rock albums as companions to it, and just building that kind of fan base that will support that. Then I started a Patreon last year, which isn't as big as yours. I wish my Patreon would get bigger, but I'm pushing it and I'm still working on that. So it's trying new things. Because if I had really devoted myself and continued to keep my MySpace page up to date, I would be wasting my time. You have to figure out new things. Part of me is disappointed because I really liked in the nineties where they just kept throwing book contracts at me with big advances. And I wrote the book and sent it in and they did all the work. But that went away and I didn't want to go away. So I had to learn how to do it different. After a good extended career, one of the things you do is you pay it forward. I mentor a lot of writers and that evolved into me creating this master's program in publishing. I can gush about it because to my knowledge, it is the only master's degree that really focuses on indie publishing and new model publishing instead of just teaching you how to get a job as an assistant editor in Manhattan for one of the Big Five publishers. Jo: It's certainly a lot more practical than my master's in death. Kevin: Well, that's an acquired taste, I think. When they hired me to do this—and as I said earlier, I'm not an academic—and I said if I'm going to teach this, it's a one year program. They get done with it in one year. It's all online except for one week in person in the summer. They're going to learn how to do things. They're not going to get esoteric, analysing this poem for something. When they graduate from this program, they walk out with this anthology that they edited, that their name is on. The other project that they do is they reissue a really fancy, fine edition of some classic work, whether it's H.G. Wells or Jules Verne or something. They choose a book that they want to bring back and they do it all from start to finish. They come out of it—rather than just theoretical learning—they know how to do things. Surprise, I've been around in the business a long time, so I know everybody who works in the business. So the heads of publishing houses and the head of Draft2Digital or Audible—and we've got Blackstone Audio coming on in a couple weeks. We've got the head of Kickstarter coming on as guest speakers. I have all kinds of guest speakers. Joanna, I think you're coming on— Jo: I'm coming on as well, I think. Kevin: You're coming on as a guest speaker. It's just like they really get plugged in. I'm in my seventh cohort now and I just love doing it. The students love it and we've got a pretty high success rate. So there's your plug. We are open for applications now. It starts in July. And my own website is WordFire.com, and there's a section on there on the graduate program if anybody wants to take a look at it. Again, not everybody needs to have a master's degree to be an indie publisher, but there is something to be said for having all of this stuff put into an organised fashion so that you learn how to do all the things. It also gives you a resource and a support system so that they come out of it knowing a whole lot of people. Jo: Brilliant. Well, thanks so much for your time, Kevin. That was great. Kevin: Thanks. It's a great show. The post Managing Multiple Projects And The Art of the Long-Term Author Career with Kevin J. Anderson first appeared on The Creative Penn.

Programa #689 - Plan de Inmersiones 00,06'12” Abrimos con Encuentros en la IIIª Fase, Ramón Verdaguer nos llevará, como de costumbre, por recorridos poco transitados del mundo del buceo, con esa mezcla suya de experiencia, lucidez y capacidad para incomodarnos… en el mejor sentido posible. 00,29'51” Seguimos con Proa al Viento, patroneado por el sargento Román Revilla, patrón —valga la redundancia— del SEMAR, Servicio Marítimo de la Guardia Civil, que vuelve a poner el acento en la seguridad en la mar, esa asignatura que nunca se aprueba del todo y conviene repasar cada día. 00,49'59” En Mis Amigos los Peces, Inés García, alma y bióloga residente de la Escuela de Buceo ZOEA de Madrid, nos invita a mirar bajo el agua con más atención, porque conocer a tus vecinos de inmersión siempre mejora la convivencia. 01,10'07” Después llega La Conjura de los Pecios, con Lucas Sáez, arqueólogo y director de patrimoniosubacuatico.net, que nos trae las últimas noticias del patrimonio cultural sumergido, ese archivo histórico que el mar guarda en silencio… hasta que alguien se toma la molestia de escucharlo, como nosotros. Comenzaremos la deco con nuestra travesía literaria en 20.000 leguas de viaje submarino, continuando con la lectura del capítulo IX de la obra inmortal de Jules Verne, porque hay viajes que nunca terminan y siempre merece la pena revisitar. Y con el repaso a los viejos programas de Al Otro Lado del Espejo ya emitidos, y la agenda de propuestas para pasar tu tiempo en superficie, hasta una nueva inmersión en las ondas… nos daremos, una noche más, por buceados. La foto de la semana es de aquellas que nos gusta denominar como ‘más al otro lado del espejo que nunca', el objetivo muestra lo que hay dentro y fuera del agua simultáneamente. Dos mundos separados por una piel de agua. Arriba, la superficie ordena el presente; abajo, la historia descansa sin pedir permiso al tiempo. El pecio no es ruina a secas: es memoria anclada, un latido antiguo que sigue respirando sal, una pieza del puzzle de nuestro paso por la historia. Aquí el mar nos recuerda que todo lo que fue, aún espera ser escuchado. Se trata de un fotograma de la película ‘Navis Romana', que participa en el primer Lisbon Underwater Film Festival, y es cortesía de sus directores, Pere Salom y Antonio Mª Thomas.

En este episodio nos adentramos en La Estrella del Sur, uno de los relatos menos transitados de Jules Verne, donde la aventura se mezcla con la ambición humana, el misterio y la mirada científica tan característica del autor. A través de la narración, exploramos un paisaje marcado por la búsqueda, el deseo de descubrimiento y las tensiones que surgen cuando la codicia y la imaginación se encuentran. Una historia que combina intriga, exploración y crítica social, y que nos permite volver a Verne desde una lectura contemporánea, atenta a los matices y a la atmósfera que envuelve a sus personajes. Un viaje breve pero intenso por uno de esos textos que recuerdan por qué Verne sigue siendo un referente de la literatura de aventuras. LOCUTOR Y DIRECTOR: Miguel A. Mateos Carreira GUION: Miguel A.

Report refait le match du Trophée Jules Verne de Sodebo Ultim 3, couronné d'un nouveau record de 40 jours 10 heures 45 minutes et 50 secondes, avec deux des sept équipiers arrivés dimanche à Brest, Benjamin Schwartz, en charge de la navigation à bord, et Nicolas Troussel.Deux jours après avoir touché terre, l'un comme l'autre, rentrés chez eux lundi, reviennent sur ces 48 heures intenses, entre accueil triomphal à Brest, festivités le soir, accueil des filles d'Idec Sport, première vraie nuit de lundi à mardi, et encore beaucoup de tensions dans le corps. Ils expliquent également quelle place tient ce Trophée Jules Verne dans leur parcours, épreuve historique pour Nicolas Troussel, quête de plusieurs années par Benjamin Schwartz.Ce dernier raconte ensuite comment le Team Sodebo Voile a pris la décision de s'élancer sur ce tour du monde dans la foulée de la Transat Café L'Or (dont il a pris la deuxième place avec Thomas Coville) et comment le départ a été précipité, conduisant l'équipe technique et les navigants à un véritable sprint pour profiter d'une fenêtre rare.D'où une mise en route assez brutale, que détaille Nicolas Troussel, et un premier record à l'équateur, suivi d'un temps de référence à Bonne-Espérance. Benjamin Schwartz explique pourquoi Sodebo Ultim 3 est descendu très sud dans l'Indien et le Pacifique - jusqu'à 62° Sud - au point de croiser des growlers, rencontre que les deux marins ont appréhendée de manière différente.Ils racontent ensuite leur premier passage du cap Horn, une remontée de l'Atlantique Sud qui a occasionné quelques noeuds dans le cerveau pour le routeur du bord et un ultime tronçon à très haute tension, avec la tempête Ingrid qui a fait douter Benjamin Schwartz quand il s'est rendu compte, une fois dedans, de la puissance du phénomène. D'où l'énorme soulagement ressenti au moment du passage de la ligne, mais également la joie d'un équipage qui, explique Nicolas Troussel, a toujours été très solidaire, ce qui explique en partie la réussite du projet.Diffusé le 27 janvier 2026Générique : Fast and wild/EdRecordsPost-production : Grégoire LevillainHébergé par Ausha.

Can Michael and his traveling companion cross the Ural Mountains with a storm on the horizon? Jules Verne, today on The Classic Tales Podcast.   Welcome to The Classic Tales Podcast.

Or Charles Dickens, or Sherlock Holmes, the list goes on and on.   If you've got a friend who might be like this, here's what you do – scroll back through our feed and find one of your favorite episodes. Maybe it's a Jeeves and Wooster episode, or a Lupin mystery, something where afterwards, you were like, man, that was a good story. There's a ton of them! Share that episode with a friend.

Pour démarrer l'année, on pense à Alexia Barrier et son équipage du "Famous Project" qui sont parties à la conquête du Trophée Jules Verne ! Malgré des mésaventures, les filles tiennent le cap et gardent le sourire. Il y a quelque jours, les huit navigatrices sont entrées dans le Pacifique avec le cap Horn en ligne de mire. Avant de retrouver un numéro inédit la semaine prochaine, je vous propose donc de nous replonger avant le départ afin d'écouter l'énergie et la détermination de cette navigatrice hors pair qui tente de faire bouger les lignes dans le milieu de la voile, tout en éveillant les consciences à la protection de la planète. Lorsque nous l'avons reçue, elle nous a raconté comment elle s'est préparée avec son équipage pour franchir la ligne de départ du Trophée Jules Verne. Un équipage 100% féminin qu'elle venait de présenter à la presse. 7 femmes, 6 nationalités afin d'essayer pour la première fois d'inscrire un temps féminin sur cette course au large sans assistance et sans escale. Alexia nous raconte cette aventure et comment elle compte, une fois de plus, collecter des données précieuses pour les scientifiques avec de mieux protéger l'Océan.

The Grand Duke's life is in danger, and the telegraph wire has been cut. Who can carry a dispatch from the Czar across revolutionary Siberia in time to warn him?  Jules Verne, today on The Classic Tales Podcast.   Welcome to The Classic Tales Podcast. Thank you for listening.   Let's talk about ads. Now, most podcasts offer a subscription where you can pay $10 or so a month, and you get to listen to their show with no ads, and get a few bonus episodes. Here's the thing – this largely goes to benefit the podcast platforms. The actual creators don't get much.   So, I created a better plan. For $9.99 per month, you get unlimited downloadable and streamable access to the entire Classic Tales Library. I've been building this for 18 years. This gives you access to longer books that wouldn't work in the podcast format. Books like Nicholas Nickleby, Moby Dick, or Plutarch's Lives. Only about a quarter of the books in the library were released through the podcast. So you can instantly download and listen to whatever you want, all the time. This is the Audiobook Library Card.   Go to audiobooklibrarycard.com or follow the link in the show notes, and download and listen all you want.   Today's story is the first in an episodic release of the novel Michael Strogoff, by Jules Verne. I don't know about you, but my favorite Jules Verne novel might be Around the World in 80 Days. Michael Strogoff is similarly commissioned with a race against time, but the story is placed in Czarist Russia, and is essentially a spy novel. This first episode is kind of a lot to set up, but once we get going – hold on tight!     And now, Michael Strogoff, Part 1 of 9, by Jules Verne     Follow this link to get The Audiobook Library Card for a special price of $6.99/month       Follow this link to subscribe to our YouTube Channel:       Follow this link to subscribe to the Arsène Lupin Podcast:     Follow this link to follow us on Instagram:     Follow this link to follow us on Facebook:

Virginie Girod vous emmène à bord du Transsibérien, le train mythique des tsars.Au milieu du XIXe siècle, le gouverneur général de la Sibérie Orientale imagine la création d'une ligne ferroviaire de 9000 kilomètres reliant Moscou à Vladivostok, afin, notamment, de créer un trait d'union entre les peuples de l'immense territoire russe. Mais le projet ne convainc pas le tsar. Quelques années plus tard, la publication d'un livre de Jules Verne va contribuer à changer la donne. En 1891, le chantier est inauguré. Un quart de siècle durant, 90 000 hommes participent à l'aventure titanesque du mythique Transsibérien. Au Cœur de l'Histoire est un podcast Europe 1. - Présentation : Virginie Girod- Production : Armelle Thiberge- Réalisation : Nicolas Gaspard- Composition du générique : Julien Tharaud- Visuel : Sidonie Mangin Hébergé par Audiomeans.

WATCH THE FULL FILM HEREIn the classic 19th century Jules Verne novel, “Le tour du monde en quatre-vingts jours,” eccentric Brit Phileas Fogg and his French valet, Passepartout, wager they can circumnavigate the world in 80 days. That nearly three-month time table would have been a walk in the park for the Vancouver-based content team at YouTube motorcycle sensation “FortNine.”Ryan Kluftinger, Connor Bondlow, and Edwin El Bainou set out to ride across America, Europe, India, Southeast Asia, Australia, and then back through Alaska, the carrot being the current world record of 19 days and change, all while filming their every move. Their motorcycles of choice for this ultimate “Iron Butt” adventure? A pair of Ducati Multistrada V4 Rallys.While Kluftinger describes their global lap as “the greatest ride of my life,” the two-plus-week excursion (no spoilers!) wasn't without moments of undeniable reality. “What we were doing was fun and exciting,” he says, “and suddenly you remember the danger associated with it.” “Yalla Habibi!” premiered at the Rio Theater in Vancouver on December 22.

En cette période de fêtes, Sailorz prend un peu de recul et vous propose une séance de rattrapage avec les deux épisodes de Pos.Report les plus suivis de 2025. Retrouvez toute l'analyse et les coulisses de la course au large dès le 6 janvier pour une nouvelle saison. Toute l'équipe de Sailorz vous souhaite, avec quelques jours d'avance, une très heureuse année 2026 !__Ce 234e épisode de Pos. Report refait le match de La Boulangère Mini Transat avec ses deux vainqueurs, Mathis Bourgnon, sur le proto Assomast (plan Etienne Bertrand), et Paul Cousin (AFP-Biocombustibles) en série, mais également avec Benoît Marie, deuxième en proto sur son plan Manuard à foils Nicomatic-Petit Bateau.Nous revenons d'abord sur l'annulation de la première étape, forcément frustrante pour Benoît Marie, qui était alors nettement en tête mais a accepté la décision, avant de faire route directement vers les Canaries alors que quasiment toute la flotte s'est réfugiée dans des ports portugais et espagnols.Nos invités confient leur état d'esprit au départ de la deuxième, le 25 octobre, et leur choix de route au moment de quitter les Canaries, avec une trajectoire est pour Mathis Bourgnon, qui l'avait travaillée avant de s'élancer, notamment avec Benoît Marie. Ce dernier raconte ensuite ses deux folles journées en volant, avec à la clé le record des 24 heures en Mini (352,59 milles, à 14,69 noeuds de moyenne), puis sa première sérieuse avarie en retombant d'une vague, avec la perte de son foil tribord et un trou dans la coque à combler. Mathis Bourgnon confie qu'il n'a alors pas vraiment réalisé que son concurrent était handicapé, plus focalisé sur son duel avec Alexandre Demange (DMG Mori Sailing Academy 2).Paul Cousin détaille quant à lui sa stratégie en ce début d'étape, avec une route sud que quasiment tous ont empruntée, mais qu'il fallait savoir doser, avant une seconde partie de transat qui a consisté à bien anticiper les rotations de l'alizé. Les trois marins racontent enfin les derniers jours de course, avec une nouvelle avarie pour Benoît Marie sur son bout-dehors et son spi max, qu'il a réussi dans un premier temps à circonscrire, avant de tout casser à une cinquantaine de milles de l'arrivée et d'appeler Mathis Bourgnon à la VHF pour le féliciter.Ce dernier explique ne pas avoir alors trop compris qu'il allait gagner et avoir vraiment réalisé une fois sur le ponton à Saint-François, dans les bras de ses parents, dont son père Yvon, vainqueur jour pour jour trente ans plus tôt. Paul Cousin confie de son côté l'état de fatigue extrême dans lequel il était au moment de couper la ligne en vainqueur, parce qu'il a beaucoup barré pendant les deux semaines de course, y compris la nuit, pour faire la différence sur ses poursuivants. Nos trois invités finissent par se projeter sur la suite : Paul Cousin rêve de Figaro, Benoît Marie de Trophée Jules Verne, Mathis Bourgnon d'Ocean Fifty ou d'Imoca.Rediffusé le 23 décembre 2025Diffusé le 18 novembre 2025Générique : Fast and wild/EdRecordsPost-production : Grégoire LevillainHébergé par Ausha.

Cette semaine, écoutez ou réécoutez l'épisode avec Alexia Barrier, alors qu'elle est en pleine tentative du Trophée Jules Verne à bord du trimaran The Famous Project CIC avec son équipage 100% féminin. Un podcast indispensable pour mieux comprendre son parcours.--C'est l'histoire d'une promesse. Celle que se fait à elle-même une petite fille,  le jour de ses 10 ans, un certain 26 novembre 1989, au départ du premier Vendée Globe : elle aussi, elle participera un jour à cette folle aventure autour du monde.Une promesse qu'elle mettra 31 ans à tenir, ce qui en dit long sur l'énergie qu'il faut déployer et sur la ténacité qui l'a animée pour y parvenir : la petite fille en question s'appelle Alexia Barrier, 24e du Vendée Globe 2020-2021.Née à Paris, elle déménage à Nice à 3 ans et découvre la voile avec ses parents plaisanciers novices. Fan de cheval et de basket, elle devient monitrice de voile à 15 ans, tâte du Laser mais se lance rapidement, avec succès dans le match racing féminin, où elle évolue au niveau mondial.Bientôt c'est la Mini Transat (en 2005) qui l'attend, puis la transat AG2R, du Class40, de l'Imoca et, très vite les grands yachts en Médterranée, où elle devient marin professionnel, éclusant les circuits maxi et classiques.En 2014, elle décroche une 3e place sur l'AG2R, enchaîne sur le Tour de France à la voile, court la Solitaire du Figaro en 2017, sans jamais oublier son étoile polaire : le Vendée Globe.En 2018, elle franchit le pas et achète le Pingouin, solide et rustique Imoca sur plan Lombard que Catherine Chabaud et Tanguy de Lamotte ont emmené autour du monde. Jusqu'au bout, elle se bat pour conquérir son budget, euro par euro. Et prend, quelques jours avant ses 40 ans, le départ du Vendée Globe.Avant même de toucher terre, Alexia Barrier sait qu'elle veut repartir pour une nouvelle giration planétaire et se lance dans la course pour le Vendée Globe 2024.
