I've created a new feed for the Dismay podcast. This feed will help solve the problem of listeners not being able to find previous episodes of my podcast in the iTunes directory. At the moment, the first five episodes of Dismay are available in the feed and I will be adding more in the furture. Eventually, I hope, this new feed will be the only feed. But, for now, listeners should remain subscribed to the current feed.

It may be interesting for those of you who have not listened to the old episodes to hear how much things have changed (and, hopefully, the quality of recording).

The new feed is: http://dismay.libsyn.com/rss

Enjoy.

I am happy to announced that the Dismay podcast is now a Parsec finalist for Best Audio Drama (Long Form including Independents). Here are all of the finalists in that category:

• Second Shift: An original fantasy Podplay
• The Failed Cities Monologues ---running lenghths
• Prometheus Radio Theatre
• Dismay

I'm not familiar with two of the podcasts, but I do know that The Failed Cities Monologues has put out some great stuff.

This is the second year being a finalist in the same category. That's twice being recognized for something I enjoy doing, and that is wonderful. Good luck to everyone who has been nominated as a Parsec finalist.

Due to my working life, I have not been able to produce an episode of Dismay for some time now despite my promising to do so. I would like to apologize to anyone waiting to listen and hear what happens next in the story. It seems that life can take you places you rarely expect and some things need to be put on hold. I do intend to continue this podcast as I enjoy making it and I enjoy the feedback so many of you have given me.

With that in mind, I would also like to thank everyone who has nominated the Dismay Podcast for Best Serialized Fiction at the Podcast Peer Awards. I appreciate the support. There are some excellent podcasts in the running, and I wish good luck to everyone. Check out the PPAs if you have not heard of them.

Regards,
Sean

A new episode will be up soon. I apologize to everyone for the delay, but work assignments have taken over my life! Oh the dismay. In the meantime, if you are interested, I have created two Twitter stories to go with this podcast. You can follow what Dismay is doing; or you can follow what The Man With No Face is doing. It's kind of fun.
