I cover Indie games, why comics make Feminists' heads explode, what real boobs look like, SF/F books, and all things geeky. en Michelle Schulz 2008 sirriamnis@gmail.com Liberated Syndication - libsyn.com podcasts@libsyn.com (Liberated Syndication) Sun, 01 Nov 2009 23:56:00 GMT 180 Geek Girls Rule podcast A podcast about gaming, comics, books, television, movies, toys, etc. from a girl-nerd perspective. Geeks, Girls, Geek Sexuality, Gaming, Comics, Media, Pop culture, Genre fiction Sirriamnis Miss_sirriamnis@yahoo.com Michelle Schulz Yes http://sirriamnicast.libsyn.org/index.php?post_id=544299#
Also, in this podcast I discuss:
AmberconNW http://www.amberconnw.org/
Emerald City GameFest http://emeraldcitygamefest.org/
Eric Flint http://www.ericflint.net/
Burning Wheel http://www.burningwheel.org/

It has come to my attention that I have mistakenly linked David Drake to the Honor Harrington books.  That didn't sound right at the time, so I went back and checked.  David WEBER wrote the Honor Harrington books, and he has ALSO written with Eric Flint.  So that's how I screwed that up.  Yes, I have read the Honor Harrington stuff, it's ok.  Not one of my favorites, but ok.

In this podcast I talk about Race Fail 09 with Mikki Kendall, and the publishing company that she and Jamie Nesbitt Golden founded, Verb Noire.

If you want more information on Race Fail '09, please go to FanHistory.com

Just to warn you, there are times when it gets awful quiet. 

Now I'm going to just give up on sleep for the next three weeks.  We just got a new kitten who will, I'm sure, figure heavily in the next podcast.

And just to repeat, the glitch in the Verb Noire Store is fixed, so you can buy their first ebook, River's Daughter by Tasha Campbell.   

Now I'm going to take a shower, and extricate the kitten from where ever she's got herself stuck.

And a bunch of random shit.  No links for you, it's hot, you have thumbs and Google, and I have editing to do. 

Enjoy.

Quick disclaimer:  Mr. Geek Girl What Rules is employed by Privateer, which is how I was able to meet Ms. Yeary and convince her to let me interview her. 

I apologize for my voice.  I swear, if I could do a convincing German accent I'd have done the entire interview as Marlena Dietrich.
