This Is This

Copy here from Mike at Troubled Diva, veteran blogger, cybersaint and, as far I can tell, neither troubled nor diva. Mike says:

As Shaggy Blog Stories approaches its 500th sale (just one more copy to go), the long-awaited Shaggy Blog Podcast is finally available for purchase.

Featuring readings by 14 of the 100 contributors, and with a playing time of 67 minutes, the Shaggy Blog Podcast can be purchased for a measly Two Quid, of which £1.60 will be donated to the Comic Relief charity.

Inevitably, the recording quality does vary somewhat - one of the contributions was even phoned in from Namibia - but the quality of the readings themselves is uniformly great, and That’s What Counts.

Hope you enjoy it. Perfect pool-side listening for the holiday season!

I say: Feel free to download the podcast, which isn’t free, but worth every penny. The blurb reads:

14 readings from Shaggy Blog Stories, a collection of comic writing from the UK blogsophere in aid of Comic Relief. All readings are performed by their original authors: Vaughan Simons, Mike Atkinson, Anna Pickard, Marcos de Lima, Bob Merckel, Cliff Jones, Peter Maling, Pete Hall, Karen Hall, Rachael Johnson, Clare Sudbery, The Goldfish, John Soanes and Meg Pickard. All profits in aid of Comic Relief.

But this morning there was no pretending. As I updated the story, the ambulances rushed by the window to rescue the people. My people. My fucking city.
