Announcement – Radio Interview on Wednesday

Posted on Written by

As promised, here’s a slightly large announcement: I’ve been interviewed for a radio program in the U.K.!

The interview will be broadcast sometime between 10:00 a.m. GMT and noon GMT (which translates to between 4:00 a.m. and 6:00 a.m. CST (my time)) on Siren FM 107.3, a community radio station from the University of Lincoln Brayford campus. Mr. Jake Parr conducted the interview for his show (The Cyber Den), and I must admit that he will probably sound better than I did. 😉

The interview mostly covers my history of writing music for video games (e.g., Rise of the Triad, Duke Nukem 3D, Stargunner, and Shadow Warrior), along with some of the voice acting I did during the same period. However, toward the end of the interview, he asked me about the science fiction novel I’ve been writing. I said a few words about it, including the first announcement to the general public of the working title (!).

If you want to listen (and I hope you will), go to Siren FM’s “How to Listen” page and follow the instructions. I’ve been told that a longer version will be posted as a podcast and as a stream on YouTube after the broadcast. If you have any problems trying to listen, please get in touch with me via my Contact page and I’ll see if I can help.

I hope you enjoy the interview. Thank you!
