Mur Lafferty Taught Us How To Build A Better Podcast

CoverYou want to know what the future of publishing sounds like? Like this:

"Playing for Keeps is a free novel delivered via podcast in audio and PDF form. It tells the story of Keepsie Branson, a bar owner in the shining metropolis of Seventh City: birthplace of super powers. Keepsie and her friends live among egotistical heroes and manipulative villains..."

More than four thousand five hundred people have already downloaded the first episode of Playing for Keeps--the podcast reading of Mur Lafferty's new novel.

The book is an experiment for this unconventional writer who has written for role playing games, podcasts, videogame news sites, Lulu.com, and maintains popular audio shows like Geek Fu Action Grip and I Should Be Writing.

Her unconventional project includes Fan Submitted Photos and Sketches and the inspiring group of readers supporting the free project, her First Wave Volunteers. Her site is like a graduate level course in web writing--experimenting with content delivery and reader interaction. 

Last May, Lafferty stopped by The Publishing Spot to deliver five days worth of podcasting wisdom. Check out the archived discussion here.
