Well, I’ve done it now. I created a podcast page, with the startings of a podcast library.
The podcasts are readings of various posts. I’m having heaps of fun with it, and I’m learning heaps too.
My friend The Wolf told me, “What next? Moon over Martinborough: the book? The movie?”
Personally, I’m thinking Moon over Martinborough: the flashy Broadway musical. Olive farmers in gumboots dancing. But that’s another story…
Check out the podcast page over here.

Or, if you’d like to browse through the posts that have become podcasts, check out the podcast category.
And please send feedback, tips, and words of advice. I’m keen to hear what you think.

Loved the podcasts. It is great to hear the author relating these amazing experiences. Could your own radio broadcast be in the future?

As I entered the room and your podcast was airing quite audibly, I was stunned by the tone of your voice. The deep resonating oration sounded eerily like a radio show that was being rebroadcast from yesteryear…a very impressive narration. The pacing and the vividness of your podcasts are great!!!

Thanks Diane and Peter.
And thanks to Katharine for her storytelling tips for my podcasts over on her blog, ‘A Storied Career’. Check out Katharine’s post: Transitioning from the Written to the Spoken Story

So nice to hear the voice that goes with Moon Over Martinborough! I love that I can listen while I am doing other things…such a nice escape. I can hear you on NPR in the future!

Jared, it was very pleasing to hear you read your blog; you read and presented it extremely well and are a natural for radio. Thank you for revealing another side! Having listened to numerous readings from the BBC, you can have no qualms about anything to do with your presentation. I followed the link to Katherine’s blog, and while she makes some good comments about story telling, I think that what you are doing is absolutely spot on, so please, don’t change a thing! When you get to publish your book (!) maybe you could let the Foundation for the Blind and Radio NZ National and Concert know what you are up to? Plus of course any radio stations in the States. You are already an unofficial ambassador for NZ. Keep up the wonderful work…..

April, thank you for such a nice comment. I really appreciate that and it means a lot. It’s always a bit nerve wracking putting yourself out there, and comments like yours keep me going. Thank you.
