Pimpin' big-time: <br> Hello, New York Times readers!

If you're visiting me from the Times, welcome. I offer free audiofiction in the form of podcasts. Directions for getting the stories are at the upper right-hand corner of this page, just under the Podshow logo. Go ahead, first hit is always free ...

The New York Times is a landmark in the world of publishing - if you get your name in those pages, it's a big friggin' deal. Well I was lucky enough to start podcasting my fiction, pick up a few thousand fans (known as "Junkies"), and thanks to those Junkies today I landed in the NEW YORK TIMES.

It's a great story (they didn't even make fun me, which is unusual in my world ...). The story inculdes a lot of great podcast fiction writers like J.C. Hutchins, Mark Jeffery and Tee Morris. What it did NOT mention, however, was Podshow, the company that carries my podcast and hooks me up nine ways to Sunday every chance they get. Podshow, salute!

We can't wait for you to

We can't wait for you to come out of the closet each week Scott. That means we'll be getting our next fix!

But seriously, congrats to you man...the hard work is paying off. Next ya have to get on one of those nightly news magazines on television like 20/20 or 60 minutes.


Scott, you made the big

Scott, you made the big podium. Congratulations with this.

Keep them episodes and books commin'

And concerning world domination... well you got me infected with the 'Scott Sigler' virus and now I'm hooked.

groeten,

Just watched Sacred Cow (twice) from Stranger Things! WOW!!! I can see that they took your story and took it further than you did, but it was still within the What Would Scott Do realm of story telling! I did miss the rotting rat powered Pray-O-Meter though...

Stranger Things is a top-notch vidcast and I can't wait to see more!

And I qoute "roughly 45 minutes each". HA!!!! None of this 20 minutes or less bullshit!

Kidding. Great job sigler. Great job!


You're having a laugh Scott

You're having a laugh Scott - who did you hire to pose as you mate? You look like Michael Stipe out of R.E.M & I had you down as a fat balding middle aged guy with glasses - kinda like John Goodman!

Anyway fantastic press coverage and very very well deserved for an excellent series of quality audiobooks, and even more so because the audio quality completely hides the fact that you record while munching knickers in a closet.


Good on you mate, now enough

Good on you mate, now enough of the reading and get back in the closet and do some more recording...........

Way to go Scott!!!! now lets hope your head doesnt swell too much to get in the closet...looks like it may be a tight fit already ;) Just joking I'm just so happy that your getting recognition outside of the internet.


Damn Straight that's Big

Damn Straight that's Big Pimpin'! Scott just hit the roof and punched a fuckin' hole right through it. All i have to say is that i can wait till April 1 and that we need to start 'infecting' the general public. In the meantime, WE NEED MORE!!!!!


Podcasts Perfect Media for

Podcasts Perfect Media for Novelists...

In the New York Times today, a great example of how faith in your art can pay off, if you're smart, resourceful, and have something people want. Most first-time novelists only sell a few thousand copies, but Scott Sigler,......


I love the picture of him in

I love the picture of him in the closet speaking like a preacher from a pulpit.

Damn, you rule Sigler......you rule.
