I know it’s been awhile, but here is the long awaited episode of Goblin Market. Unfortunately, I currently live in a battle zone filled with dogs, trash compactors, ice grinders and more. There is no ideal time to record, which makes for some pretty crazy background noise from time to time. I did my best to edit out as much of the melee from the episode as possible, but there may still be some random nononsense. At least I cut out all my swearing. There was a lot of it, as each time I’d get into the groove, someone would barrel into the house and stomp the stairs or fill buckets with ice.

Hopefully I’ll have a new episode for you in about two weeks. I’ve been working my ass off lately trying to get money saved for the wedding and for us to move, so forgive me as I prioritize for the future. I’m doing my best to get this wrapped up so you all don’t have to wait as long between episodes. I hope you can forgive me and be patient with me.

Hey guys, here is the last episode of Goblin Market for the month. After being downtrodden by evil sickness, it took everything I had to get this one out. I am heading up north for two weeks, and then celebrating an early holiday when I get back to the States, but after that, I hope to get episode 16 out by the middle of the month.

This episode kicks off with the announcement of the winners from the Broken Hearts Club contest, and features promos for Angelo Bell’s Broken Hearts Club, Nobilis Erotica and Jake Bible’s Dead Mech. Special thanks to Angelo and Michael Bekemeyer for helping judge the competition.

As per usual, the intro music has been provided by Kevin MacLeod and incompetech.com, and the outtro music is provided by John Anealio.

Also, sorry about the two players. When I had all the issues with my site, I wound up having to switch from podpress to a new plugin, and I am still getting familiar with it. So far… It’s scary, and I do not love it.

Hope you all have a great couple of weeks.

Greetings everyone, welcome back to the Goblin Market. As I prepare this episode, Autumn is upon me in all her fiery splendor. The wind is howling outside, spiraling the leaves like a furious mother who’s lost her cool. It is a perfect day for the Goblin Market, and so I hope you’ll join me as we pass through the gates to see what Kothar and his minions have planned this week.

As you’ll hear in my intro, I am going up to Toronto to spend the week with James on Tuesday and won’t be back until Thursday the 22nd. I am going to try very hard this weekend to get episode thirteen recorded and edited so I can drop that for you either Wednesday evening from afar, or before I leave. No promises. I have to work this weekend and have a lot of family stuff going on right now, so I may not be able to do it. There will probably be no episode at all on the 21st. I hope you forgive me, and remember as you step away from the Goblin Market, that absence makes the heart grow fonder, and inspires the goblins to do more wicked for future episodes.

I also wanted to thank everyone again for their heartfelt warm wishes and congratulations upon the announcement of James and my engagement. Everyone has been so supportive and it’s really made me smile to know that love still has the power to draw communities together.

Be sure to check out the promos in this week’s episode. I’ve got Paul Elard Cooley’s Tattoo and Zack Daggy’s Dark World’s Project 31. As per usual, the intro music has been provided by Kevin MacLeod and incompetech.com, and the outtro music is provided by John Anealio.

P.S. The second player is not working, but the top player works just great. This episode is back in the feed and working most excellently. *tents fingers and laughs like a maniac*

Greetings everyone, and welcome back to the Goblin Market. Thank you all for being so patient while I pieced this episode together after Horror Realm. Unfortunately, we came home with some sickness, so all of my energy these last few days went into getting this episode recorded and edited for you guys. To make matters more ridiculous, I’ve been having so many problems with Audacity lately, and I’m afraid to say that the quality of this episode is not up to par. I’m considering looking into another program, but in the meantime, I hope you’ll bear with me.

As always, I want to thank you guys for continually tuning in to my podcast. It makes me so happy when I get your feedback, so thank you all for that! You rock my world each and every week! Also, a big fat thank you that words alone cannot convey to my friend and blog-partner, Michele Bekemeyer for the generous donation she made this week to the Goblin Market. I was stunned speechless, which rarely happens. For those of you interested in making a donation, please note that 10% of all received donations go to the Crohns and Colitis Foundation of America.

Stay tuned at the end of this week’s episode for promos for Mur Lafferty’s I Should Be Writing and J. Daniel Sawyer’s Down From 10. As per usual, the intro music has been provided by Kevin MacLeod and incompetech.com, and the outtro music is provided by John Anealio.

Greetings everyone, and welcome back to the Goblin Market. Thank you all for tuning in this week, and for your continued support. This week’s episode is a turning point of sorts, as Meredith, Him and Sir Gwydion prepare to set out for the Darknjan Wald.

There is some neat stuff in the Goblin Market this week, including the fact that today is September 9th, 2009, and I am releasing episode 9. 9-9-9-9… Isn’t that cool? Of course, you know I planned it out that way… 0_o. Yes, yes I did. Anyway, that means episode 9 is my lucky episode. Close your eyes and make a wish while listening to episode 9. Just be careful what you wish for. You know how goblins can be.

Also, I did some tallying yesterday and discovered that Goblin Market has been downloaded just over 1500 times so far, and the number climbs to greater heights each week. That’s awesome, and I’m so proud. Thank you all for continuing to listen each week, and for telling your friends about my endeavor. I am hoping to find a few spare minutes this week to re-record episodes one through five so I can begin submitting to podiobooks.com, and reaching an even larger audience, so wish me luck.

In other Goblin Market news, I know this is a bit early, but there will be no episode of Goblin Market on Wednesday, September 23rd. We’ll be at Horror Realm the weekend before, and weekends are when I squeeze in the majority of my recording for the week. Fret not, my lovelies. Goblin Market will return, right on schedule Wednesday, September 30th.

Be sure to stay tuned at the end of Episode Nine for promos for Philippa Ballantine’s Weather Child and Michell Plested’s podcast for writers, “Getting Published”.

As per usual, the intro music has been provided by Kevin MacLeod and incompetech.com, and the outtro music is provided by John Anealio.

Greetings all! Welcome back to the Goblin Market. I have to say, as much as I love Goblin Market and podcasting my episodes, I really didn’t want to end my vacation last Thursday. James and I had an awesome week, much of which was spent relaxing, but there comes a time in every vacation when you realize you have to get back to work simply so you can earn your next vacation.

Hopefully you will hear a vast improvement in the sound quality of this episode. I am now operating with new equipment (GO ME!) and though I am still learning daily about setting sound levels for the best quality, I am much happier with the quality of this episode than I have been with any of the others.

Before I get on with the episode, I wanted to thank the good folks over at Art By Tech Web Design for donating to Goblin Market. It was my very first donation, and much appreciated. 10% of all donations made to Goblin Market go to the Chron’s and Colitis Foundation of America (CCFA). So thanks again! I was both humbled and honored by your support!

The promo at the end of this week’s episode is for Starla Huchton’s The Dreamer’s Thread. As per usual, the intro music has been provided by Kevin MacLeod and incompetech.com, and the outtro music is provided by John Anealio.

Episode six of Goblin Market is here! This is the longest episode of Goblin Market yet, coming in just around 28 minutes. We get to know Him and Sir Gwydion a little better, and a few new characters as well. I hope you enjoy the episode. Feel free to leave comments or send me an email if you wish at jennybeanses@gmail.com.

Stay tuned at the end of this week’s episode for an awesome promo. James Durham’s FETIDUS, which I’ve been listening to while working. FETIDUS is an awesome audio drama! You guys will love it, I promise.

Music in this week’s intro is provided by Incompetech and Kevin MacLeod and the outtro music is “Merithyn’s Promise” by John Anealio.

Thank you all for tuning in and for your continued support. I hope you enjoy the episode.

In which I introduce one of my all-time personal favorite characters, Him of the Green. I have always had an affinity with forest gods, and so he is modeled quite closely to the wild hunter ideal I cooked up in my head years and years ago. Humorous, witty, romantic, a little naive, yet incredibly strong.

This week I am featuring promos at the end of the episode for two of my very good friends. Michele Bekemeyer recently began podcasting her novel, Trapping a Duchess, and I have been anxiously awaiting the drop of episode three. It’s coming tomorrow, so I hear, and I can’t wait! Following the promo for Trapping a Duchess is the promo for Kate of Mind, the audio version of my friend Kate Sherrod’s Suppertime Sonnets. Both of these are excellent podcasts, so I hope you will stay tuned at the end of the episode, give a listen and then go check them out!

Thank you all for tuning in. I really do appreciate the continued support. You are all awesome!

So I learned a valuable lesson this week about posting more than one audio file at a time. While the promo James Melzer did for me was incredibly awesome, it completely trumped episode four of Goblin Market in the feeds, and I’ve been getting emails and messages since Wednesday asking if there is only a new promo this week, and not a new episode.

I apologize to everyone for the confusion and completely blame Kothar and his band of nasty goblins. Fret not, however, we the episode will prevail. I am going to delete the old post and add two new posts This one for the episode and a separate one for the promo. Thank you all for your patience and for the head’s up. And now, really without further ado, episode four of Goblin Market.

Welcome back to the Goblin Market everyone. Thank you all for coming. Before I get on with the audio, I wanted to mention something I also brought up in my intro…

About my audio quality… I’ve gotten a lot of feedback on the quality of my audio. Thank you all for your suggestions and solutions. I really mean that. I know it’s no excuse, but I am working with substandard equipment right now and hope to be upgrading to a new mic in the next couple of weeks. I hope that the story and plot continue to draw you back and keep your interest and that you can find it in your hearts to forgive a poor girl for a little hiss… I’m working on it, I promise. Thank you again to everyone who’s made suggestions and helped with samples and software ideas. You are all awesome. I mean it. To have so many people who want to help out means a lot.

I also want to thank John Anealio, who offered the use of his original music for Goblin Market. John writes awesome songs based on science fiction/fantasy films, books and more. Please go and check out his work. It’s awesome. Sci Fi Songs. The song used during the outtro of episode three is called “Merithyn’s Promise.” Thank you, John!

Welcome back to the Goblin Market everyone. I’m so excited to see everyone lined up outside the gates this week for episode two. Thank you so much for coming.

The kickoff for the debut of my very first podiobook was a huge success. Episode one saw over 150 downloads on the first night alone, which to me was a massive win! Thank you!

I have gotten a lot of positive feedback about episode one and some interesting opportunities as a result. Stay tuned over the next couple of days for some neat stuff coming down the pipeline. In the meantime, I am enjoying hearing from everyone so please don’t hesitate to contact me. To find out how, visit the contact page.

Endless gratitude and appreciation for all of your support and encouragement!

Jenny

P.S. HUGE congratulations to my friend James Melzer, who made the biggest announcement of his career to date over on his website. GO THERE! Congratulate him and buy him a beer. He deserves it. Congratulations, James. You rock!
