Submission guidelines can be found at http://www.TallTaleTV.com ---- About Tall Tale TV ---- Hi there! My name is Chris Herron and I'm an audiobook narrator. In 2015, I suffered from poor Type 1 diabetes control which lead me to become legally blind for almost a year. The doctors didn't give me much hope, predicting an 80% chance that I would never see again. But I refused to give up and changed my lifestyle drastically. Through sheer willpower (and an amazing eye surgeon) I beat the odds and regained my vision. During that difficult time, I couldn't read or write, which was devastating as they had always been a source of comfort for me since childhood. However, my wife took me to the local library where she read out the titles of audiobooks to me. I selected some of my favorite books, such as the Disc World series, Name of the Wind, Harry Potter, and more, and the audiobooks brought these stories to life in a way I had never experienced before. They helped me through the darkest period of my life and I fell in love with audiobooks. Once I regained my vision, I decided to pursue a career as an audiobook narrator instead of a writer. That's why I created Tall Tale TV, to support aspiring authors in the writing communities that I had grown to love before my ordeal. My goal was to help them promote their work by providing a promotional audio short story that showcases their writing skills to readers. They say the strongest form of advertising is word of mouth, so I offer a platform for readers to share these videos and help spread the word about these talented writers. Please consider sharing these stories with your friends and family to support these amazing authors.

「前田大然、横浜F・マリノス解任の元セルティックコーチに感謝の言葉 」 スコティッシュ・プレミアシップのセルティックに所属するFW前田大然が圧巻のシーズンを過ごしており、今2025年夏にも移籍の可能性が取り沙汰される中、ある“恩師”への感謝の言葉が注目を集めている。 5月4日にセルティックのクラブ内表彰で多数の賞を受け取り、スコットランド・プロサッカー選手協会（SPFA）の年間最優秀選手賞も受賞した前田。自身のインスタグラムのストーリーで「Thank you my teacher」と、元セルティックのアシスタントコーチであり、2024年にJ1の横浜F・マリノスを率いるもわずか7か月余りで解任されたハリー・キューウェル元監督へ向けてメッセージを投稿した。 セルティックでの飛躍の裏には、FWとしての技術やメンタル面でキューウェル元コーチの助言があった可能性があり、その貢献に対する感謝と見られる。 今2024/25シーズン、前田はここまで全大会通算48試合に出場し33ゴール12アシストを記録し、3冠を目指すセルティックに大きく貢献。以前からその献身性とスタミナでサポーターに支持されていたが、ブレンダン・ロジャーズ監督の指導の下でゴールという目に見えた結果を残し、完成されたセンターフォワードへと成長をとげている。 7日にはスコットランド・フットボールライターズ協会（SFWA）の年間最優秀選手賞（年間MVP）にもノミネートされた前田。この活躍により、プレミアリーグの複数クラブが前田に関心を示しているとさまざまなメディアで連日報じられ、移籍金は最大で5,000万ポンド（約95億円）に達する可能性もあるとされる。昨2024年にMFマット・オライリーがブライトン・アンド・ホーブ・アルビオンに移籍した際の金額を上回ると予測されている。 前田は契約延長の打診についてロジャーズ監督と話したことを明かしたが、現在はシーズンの残り試合とスコティッシュカップ決勝（5月25日）に集中していると述べており、来2025/26シーズン以降については明言していない。

Since the last episode, The Green Plantain and yours truly visited Greece and Turkey on a tour that took our family to the ruins of Akrotiri in Santorini, Greece. Akrotiri is not a place of fantasy; it is a prehistoric city whose excavation takes its name from a modern village set on a nearby hill because the site's name in antiquity is not known. This is a historical fiction story of friendship and serendipity in antiquity and modern times. The young girl's name is Eleni, a nod to our excellent guide in Athens. Desde el último episodio, el Green Plantain y yo visitamos a Grecia y Turquía en un recorrido que llevó a nuestra familia a las ruinas de Akrotiri en Santorini, Grecia. Akrotiri no es un lugar de fantasía; Se trata de una ciudad prehistórica cuya excavación toma su nombre de un pueblo moderno situado en una colina cercana porque no se conoce el nombre del lugar en la antigüedad. Esta es una historia de ficción histórica de amistad y serendipia en la antigüedad y los tiempos modernos. La joven se llama Eleni, un guiño a nuestra excelente guía en Atenas. . . . . #TheGreenPlantainpodcast #TheCubanStoriesProjectpodcast #Cubanstories #Cuba #cubanosporelmundo #cubanstoriesonthegreenplantainpodcast #Greece #untostonanyone #themoon #Lunarcodex #southfloridawritersassociation #SFWA #akrotiri #athens #tauck --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/susana-mueller/support

In this 101st episode of Sonitotum with Matthew Wayne Selznick, the podcast about making stuff (mostly writing), finding success as we each define it for ourselves, and staying healthy and sane in the process… it’s a conversation with science fiction author AJ Super! AJ Super is the author of the Seven Stars Saga, a trilogy published by Aethon Books and Blackstone Audio. Writing full time, they devour fantasy and science fiction in every medium, and even experiment with writing and reading other speculative fiction now and again. They earned two Bachelors’ degrees from the University of Idaho in the Creative Writing and Theater programs, and they have been an author since they were old enough to write (and illustrate) a stapled-together ABC book, which is still packed away in a box of childhood memorabilia. AJ is inspired by Ursula K. Le Guin, Anne McCaffery, Octavia E. Butler, Mercedes Lackey, and other amazing female science fiction and fantasy authors. They are active in several different writing communities and an SFWA member. They currently live in Idaho with their fuzz-brained kitties, supportive spouse, and a ridiculous collection of slippers. ~ from AJ Super’s official site Across this evergreen conversation we talk parental influence, everyone’s emo phase, writing for the ADHD reader, the negative consequences of a fast book release schedule, the ol’ planner / pantser dilemma, the meaning of art, emulating our literary heroes, maintaining a healthy creative (and life!) routine, and much, much more. This episode was recorded on May 28, 2024. The conversation with AJ Super was recorded on January 22, 2024. Links and Topics Mentioned in This Episode AJ Super’s publisher is Aethon Books. Their audiobooks come from Blackstone. Visit AJ Super’s Patreon page! A few non-genre authors come up in our discussion: Flannery O’Connor Raymond Carver Charles Bukowski In particular: Factotum, Love is a Dog from Hell, and The Days Run Away Like Wild Horses Over the Hills Ernest Hemingway F. Scott Fitzgerald and The Great Gatsby Sun Valley, Idaho, where Hemingway is buried. I bring up Julian May‘s work as an example of wonderful books that, due to changing social mores, may be overlooked today. Edgar Rice Burroughs and Sax Rhomer, too. That favorite James Baldwin quote of mine is mentioned via Octavia Butler’s (likely unintentional) paraphrase. Next episode: a solo update and news episode.

In 2015, I suffered from poor Type 1 diabetes control which lead me to become legally blind for almost a year. The doctors didn't give me much hope, predicting an 80% chance that I would never see again. But I refused to give up and changed my lifestyle drastically. Through sheer willpower (and an amazing eye surgeon) I beat the odds and regained my vision. During that difficult time, I couldn't read or write, which was devastating as they had always been a source of comfort for me since childhood. However, my wife took me to the local library where she read out the titles of audiobooks to me. I selected some of my favorite books, such as the Disc World series, Name of the Wind, Harry Potter, and more, and the audiobooks brought these stories to life in a way I had never experienced before. They helped me through the darkest period of my life and I fell in love with audiobooks. Once I regained my vision, I decided to pursue a career as an audiobook narrator instead of a writer. That's why I created Tall Tale TV, to support aspiring authors in the writing communities that I had grown to love before my ordeal. My goal was to help them promote their work by providing a promotional audio short story that showcases their writing skills to readers.

If you've been following along at home, you know that ManuscriptWIshist.com version 4.0 just launched. And while it's new, and shiny, and lovely, it's ten years in the making. This is the miraculous-feeling story about how we got from Tumblr to Wordpress blog to site where agents and editors can login and make their own updates—the only way we'd still exist, because doing everything manually quickly became impossible. We'll hear from Mike Chen and Sierra Godfrey, now multi-published authors, who (we know! We can't believe it either) saw Jessica's sad “Does anyone know how to fix websites?” tweet, and generously offered to help. They made the site beautiful, sustainable, scalable, and—frankly—possible, going forward. We also hear from Caitlin O'Connell, now an editor at Marvel, about her days running the backend of the site when it was still run almost entirely by humans. You may have thought it was tech, but it was Caitlin—with her delightful kindness and willingness to help writers, agents, and editors alike—who made all version 2.0 possible. Plus, we talk about the MSWL party with 90 agents and editors, and how it felt to be in that room with the people dreaming loudly on the internet. Mike Chen is the New York Times bestselling author of Star Wars: Brotherhood, Here and Now and Then, Light Years From Home, and other novels. He has covered geek culture for sites such as Nerdist, Tor.com, and StarTrek.com, and in a different life, covered the NHL. A member of SFWA, Mike lives in the Bay Area with his wife, daughter, and many rescue animals. Follow him on Twitter to see pictures of his corgi: @mikechenwriter Sierra Godfrey is the author of A Very Typical Family and The Second Chance Hotel (Sourcebooks). She was born in Santa Cruz, California and has lived many places, including Santorini, Greece. She loves hiking, watching soothing British farmland shows, and thinking of stories about messy families. She lives in the San Francisco Bay Area with her family, which includes a dog, two cats, and a turtle, all of which seemed like a good idea at the time. Find her at sierragodfrey.com or @sierragodfrey on Twitter and Instagram. Caitlin O'Connell is an Associate Editor at Marvel and writer from northern New Jersey. She specializes in YA and children's literature, but has a great love of all stories that are well told and inviting. When not writing or reading, Caitlin can usually be found drinking tea under a pile of cats or hand-sewing historical costumes for fun. You can follow her on Twitter @Caitlin_Renata or, to learn more about her writing and editing, visit caitlinroconnell.com.

Listener, this is part one of a two-part series on the many crimes of science fiction authors. Let's not sugar coat it. The sexual abuse of children committed by science fiction authors. We're going to talk about the Science Fiction Writers of America. How I feel that they're hypocrites. How the image the SFWA has cultivated doesn't gel with the facts. Monstrous people that have been given the prestigious title of Grand Master and never denounced for their evil. Special thanks to Moira Greyland.
