PHANTOM PULSE - a 90s audio drama musical
PHANTOM PULSE is a rock audio drama about love, death, and everything in between from Lauren Shippen, creator of The Bright Sessions.

It's #PhantomPulse time!!! I'm working with THE @laurenshippen.com to make a podcast about a 90s band who can banish ghosts with the power of music.
Starring Nicholas Podany, Erin Caesar, Erika Ishii, Briggon Snow and Juliana Gutiérrez Arango, I promise you this thing is going to go SO. HARD. 🎸👻

I once asked a bookseller at a large indie store how many people would have to buy a book for it to get the attention of the store buyer and cause an additional order and they said: Three.
I see some book piracy discourse, and, to make a positive argument in favor of buying books, your marginal ability to influence what books get published and support the careers of writers you like is massive compared to most other forms of media.

It’s so cool to have hitched your wagon 20 years ago to an industry that was booming beyond anyone’s expectations and have it turn out to be stripmined and utterly hollowed out by Shareholder Value, and every other industry you could slot into has been, surprise, hollowed out by Shareholder Value
