Hey Mike

I thank you

Yeah Baby!!!

  Just downloaded it!!  Can't wait to start listening!!

A lot of people keep talking about how great you are at reading, your characters voices etc..  Which you are totally awesome at.  Maybe you could be a voice actor and also do the reading for audio books (Until you get rich off your books) You definately have the talent for it.  It would probably give you more free time for writing than your current job.  It may not matter though, as soon as you get you book to a publisher that knows what a great book is, you will be making plenty of money.  If you follow through with your plan you mentioned before, I bet with in one year Underwood and Flinch will be making you rich.

Cheers

And Thanks again for all your hard work and awesome stories you give us.

Man o' man, I can feel the tension building. This is going to get good. Well voiced.

Maybe cartoon voicing is in your future? Have you looked into it?  


Hi Mike, Thank you so very much for the chapter 7

Bien Hecho Miguel

Nice job on the Spanish voices. I know Spanish is not an easy language for English speakers; and what you did is harder still. You got the English accent of a Spanish speaker to be very believable. I can just imagine the amount of work that goes into these recordings of yours! Excellent job Mike! Gracias y hasta pronto.


good to the last drop

Yep, this episode was deliciously juicy and full of great revelations that I feel are just around the corner. I am salivating!


Dream?

Samual A Carver's picture

Was it just dream it or something?  Wasn't there some sort of new point thing set up on this site?  I thought I read a post by Jason that announced the new point system and he said that he would let Mike have the honors of explaining it.  I even saw points written at the bottom of peoples posts.  Something like "Points = 0" and on one of my posts it said "Points = 1".  I was assuming we were getting points (other than V Points) for our posts.  I checked back and I see nothing at all about it.  So what is going on, was that stuff really there?  Or did I unknowingly fall asleep at the computer and dream it all?  God I hope not, that could mean all kinds of possibly bad things.  I would be forced to question all of my recent memories, rather they were real or not.

Please Help

Re: dream

Mike's picture

Hi Sam

It was a dream: I asked Jason if we could develop a system like Facebook's 'like' or Digg's 'digg' so people could say they liked a posting that someone had made without needing to write a comment. Drupal - the system that site is built on, only offers this type of function as a points system and has a 'score', whereby a post gets a score. We ultimately felt that this wasn't what we wanted for the site so we dropped it. We're always trying out new functions for U&F.com; sometimes they work out, sometimes they don't. This one didn't.


thanks for the update Mike on ch 8

Angel foss's picture

Hi Mike, so loving the U&F chapters, really excited for chapter 8. It's got all the magic leading up to chapter 8 and beyond. This novel is going to be totally amazing. You really are a MASTER of PODCAST WRITING & BROADCASTING.

Take care

Angel x


carry on trying new things Jason

Angel foss's picture

Hi Mike & Jason, it's fab that ur trying to introduce new things all the time to U&F. Keep up with the good work they are important to the site and the users, thank you both.

Waiting and trying to be patient.

Angel foss's picture

Hi Jason, don't I get a prize for the amount of vampire points I've got?? I should, really.

take care

that goes to you Mike too x

Angel foss's picture

That goes to you too, Mike. Dont I get a vampire prize for being top of the vampire board?? Granted I sort of get a prize each time the chapter is released. So I'll just shut up. lol

take care

Angel x


Prize

Mike's picture

You hit the nail on the head there Angel. The prize is in the free content - and also in the kudos of being Top Vampire. Now impress your friends in the real world and point them to the site using the invite a friend thingy. Maybe they'll get into it enough to challenge your status ;-)

I have to go now and get back to work on Episode 8.

Uncle Velvet's picture

How about adding some exciting content to the forum instead of this endless babble? I think your point total will put you in the vampire lead for a while, maybe as long as Underwood has been "napping".

Let me ask you a few questions the fans want to know. What is your cat's name? What's the X for in your name? Are you a natural pink head?

Just pulling your pink tail.

-Uncle V


thank you Mike

Angel foss's picture

Hi Mike,  The prize could not be better, fantastic podcast's and communicating with you , the podcast master.

Why do you think my score is so high?  Becaus I've been sending invites to all my friends in my address book. ;)

I think uncle velvet is a little perturbed about my vampire score LOL Bless him lol

take  care

Angel x


Uncle V

Angel foss's picture

Hi Uncle Velvet, I totally apreciate your comment about the 'babble' to up my Vampire points, However, I've been sending all my friends in my address book invites,It's called affective networking :)   About an amazing podcast master.   My cat is called Tigga, and NO the pink were extentions that I don't have anymore. The x at the end of my 'name' is just adding to the mystery ;)  It's so lovely to communicate with you. Thanks for your interest,it was very 'moving'  (said in a dark, vampire voice) lol

take care

Angel x

Hi again Uncle Velvet, my pink tail is well and truly pulled ;) lol  Loved answering your questions ;)  Any more?? lol

take care

the cat in the picture

Angel foss's picture

Hi Uncle Velvet, I see what you mean now, 'my pink hair,the cat I'm holding' My only excuse is that I was tired, lol  my kitten was called Angel . She died when she was 1 .  Hope I've cleared it up now.

regards

Angel x


Angel X

Uncle Velvet's picture

Amazing, you turned three simple questions into three posts. More questions:

What color is your hair now? What's your favorite Hall of Mirrors Story? What famous person to you most closly resemble?

Sorry about the kitty. 


Questions x

Angel foss's picture

Hi Uncle Velvet,  my hair now is blonde streaks (boring I know, but watch this space) My favourite HoM's is of course, 'Salvation' I adore the story and listen to it over and over. What is your favourite one? What did you think of OatS, I loved that one too. Who do you think 'the one' is or could be? Do think there will be a sequel? I hope so, but where could it go??

Famous person, I don't think I resemble anyone, I am just me x  I think(and so does my Husband) that I am quite decent looking! 

Thanks for your kind words about kitty 'Angel'  

Thanks for the qustions

I am a big fan of podcasting, and specially your work but I very seldom leave a comment. This time is very different, when I for the first time I heard the opening of this podcast with Farid Farjad's music I felt a chill in my bones, see I am a Iranian American living in LA so I have big ties with my roots and its music, Farid Farjad has a outstanding collection of the best of over 60 years persian music played with his magical violin that each of them brings back lots of beautiful memories and hearing on my favorite podcaster is the best combination I ever heard in a podcast.

Thank you

Dear Mike

I am a big fan of podcasting, and specially your work but I very seldom leave a comment any where. This time is very different, when I for the first time heard the opening of this podcast with Farid Farjad's music I felt a chill in my bones, see I am an Iranian American living in LA but I still keep my ties with my roots and its music, Farid Farjad has gathered an outsatanding collection of the best of over 60 years of Persian music with his magical violin, and each of them brings back lots of beautiful memories. Hearing one of them on my favorite podcaster work is the best combination I ever heard in podcasting. By the way the title of this song act means" you came back but..".

Thank you Mr. Bennett


Re: Farid Farjad

Mike's picture

Many thanks. It's great to hear from a fan of Farid Farjad and to learn what the song's title means in English (and it's strangely appropriate too). I discovered Mr Farjad while searching through hundreds of 'world music' artists. As soon as I heard Amad Amma I knew instantly that I'd found the perfect piece. It would be great if, as a result of this podcast, Mr Farjad picks up some of new fans around the world. He's certainly found a new one in me :-)

 


Farid Farjad

Dear Mike

I am flatered by your response. If someone with absolutely no background in this kind of music can make a bond with it, that person should have a very strong, open and broad sense of art. Although music is universel but you have to have an open heart for it. For the record the exact meaning of the title is "she came(returned) but..." and basicaly talks about a lover that came back but you could feel the fire of the love is not in her anymore.

Your loyal fan

Nima

P.S. If you ever decide to have a persian/Iranian character in your stories, I would be honored to assisit you with some firsthand info about the culture, not the media made up one.


Farid Farjad

  After hearing it on Underwood and Flinch I thought it was awesome, it has sort of an eerie feel to it, that I love..  Anyway I looked into more of his music.  It is very good.  I plan to buy a CD soon.


Persia

Mike's picture

Thank you Nima

It's quite possible I may one day take you up on that offer; Underwood has been around for a very long time and for him to have been in Persia at some time in the past is highly likely. The nice thing about a character like Underwood is that he has such a long and varied back-catalogue of adventures. So whatever the outcome of U&F (1), should there be a call for a sequel / prequel, there are literally hundreds of possibilities Laughing

Hi Sam

Trust me you will enjoy it, it is the best thing for closing your eyes and get your mind relaxed.
