Hobson & Choi Podcast Special - Writers' Huddle Interview with Ali Luke!

Like a bolt from the blue, the Hobson & Choi Podcast is back on the scene!

I've moving house in the near future and will be without wifi, so internet content from the Nick Bryan/H&C Media Empire will be thin on the ground. But before disappearing into irrelevant meatspace for a bit, I recorded an interview for Writers' Huddle, a subscription-only writing forum run by the excellent author and blogger Ali Luke.

Listen now to hear me talk about H&C, serialisation, self-publishing, writing characters different from yourself and whether I ever considered putting Hobson & Choi into first person. Plus a little news about the status of upcoming H&C books in the outro.

So, download the episode here using the power of browser rightclicking!

Or use the embeddy player below, or if you're faithful enough to still be subscribed to H&C in iTunes, it should be there too...

Hobson & Choi Podcast Special - Writers' Huddle Interview with Ali Luke! by Nick Bryan on Mixcloud

Thanks to Ali for hosting the chat and letting me put it out to the wider internet. Be sure to check out her blog at Aliventures and her own self-published fantasy book Lycopolis. Plus she's on Twitter (obviously) as @aliventures.

If this interview got you interested in my Hobson & Choi darkly comic crime books, you can read more about them at HobsonAndChoi.com. Sounds by zagi2 on Freesound as before.

And that, for now, might really be it for a wee while...

Hobson & Choi Podcast #33 - "A Long Weekend"

The conclusion is here! Hobson and Choi face the epilogue of their big wolf-case, while I deal with something even more heartbreaking: the end of the podcast itself. At least you get an extra-length 15 mnute episode before it goes away.

Thanks to everyone who listened to the podcast while it existed - as I've said in various episodes, I enjoyed working on it a lot, so I may one day return with a new audio-based vehicle. For now, though, this is the end. If you want more multimedia material, I did a video blog the other week.

Hobson & Choi #57 - "Interview With The Wolf-Man"

Hobson, Choi and Lettie encounter an old enemy in the latest chapter! Up now on Jukepop! Vote for us! Etc!

And no, the title Interview With The Wolf-Man doesn't imply any relation to the various horror films with similar titles. I'm just hoping to lure people who like that sort of thing in, so they can fall in love with our serial and keep reading.

In other H&C news, we were #2 on Jukepop for February! Excellent news, although that means the only way to progress is to hit #1. So, um, yeah, if everyone could just go vote heavily now? It is my 30th birthday soon, and that would be a delightful present...

Hobson & Choi Podcast #27 - "Crusty Semen Inspectors"

Hobson and Choi do some mature acronym comedy in our CSI tie-in special! Meanwhile, I talk about blogging in the back matter - Check here to find out if I actually did any...
