It is with mixed emotions that I announce the end of my first podcast Form Letter Rejection Theatre. I have been giving it a lot of thought lately and I just can’t see myself being able to return to this project any time soon. If I can’t put out regular episodes, there really is no reason to to keep saying that I will. So in two weeks I will post one last episode in which I will bare my writer’s soul, explain what happened, thank all those people who helped me make the four episodes of FLRT so wonderful and say goodbye for now.
 
If you would like to be a part of the final episode, you can still leave voicemail at 718-425-0602 or send your comments to feedback@flrtpodcast.com.
 
The feed for FLRT will remain open and the the stories there will remain available. There simply won’t be additional short stories produced for it. I have decided that many of my listeners and readers are right, I’m not really a short story writer. I plan to put all of my efforts into completing my first novel, The Empress Sword and other novel length projects I have in the planning stages.
 
I’m not done with podcasting either. I am still associated with Chris Lester’s Metamor City: Making the Cut podcast novel and plan to be producing my own podiobooks in the future. So hang in there friends and keep looking here for the latest news.

Okay, it’s been a really really long time since I posted anything here. A lot has happened in the last nine months; I started a podcast (Form Letter Rejection Theatre) which ran for four episodes and then kind of faded from view; I wrote one other short story, but not much else; and I’ve gotten a lot further on The Empress Sword.
 
I know, you’re asking yourself, “Is that all? What have you been doing with yourself, Paulette?” Well if I was a full-time writer I wouldn’t have any excuses, but writing is really just a hobby at this point and my day job takes precedent. As you are all aware it’s been a tough year for the economy and at my job that has meant personnel reductions and more work for those of us left. For a while the podcast took up all my free time and eventually even that little bit of time went away.
