Books, Music, Burnout and a Mystery!
This podcast is a few days late or a couple of days early, depending on how you look at it. It’s also not the same podcast I originally recorded. This week I reveal what happened to the first one and I also talk about…
Beginnings: How do we capture an audience’s attention?
Books, especially Australian ones
Free music which can be used for podcasting, video making and any other purpose
My new Zoom audio recorder and how it performs
What not to do if you are afflicted by blogging burnout
I also try something new: My podcast, for the first time, is not one long unending passage of speech!
