I'm creating a collection of audio files, which
I'm enjoying greatly. No big deal; just me reading my stuff and talking about
whatever strikes me that day. I make these files available to people who support
this blog by subscribing. You can read more about that
here, if you are interested.
But occasionally I'm going to drop one here for
anyone. This week's audio was me reading "Open Communion" and talking a little
bit about creative writing. I also included an outtake that I thought was pretty
funny. This is a remix of the original file with a new musical intro.

(If the streaming link doesn't work
for you, here is a
direct link to the file.)
The music is by Ben and the Sidewalk Saints. My
friend
Ben King is intrigued with old-time gospel
music performed in new ways. He's working on an album, and he lets me have rough
cuts to use as intros for my audio files. The new intro is "I'll Fly Away." You
may be familiar with that song, but you've never heard it like Ben does it. You
can listen to the
whole song here.

ps - I just listened to the
finished file for the first time. I found an audio glitch. You lose a sentence
or so. Damn! The master must be flawed. Oh well, that's what happens when rank
amateurs try to play with the big boys.
