Crime noir podcast gets more attention
I’ve two pieces of news about the name in crime noir podcast fiction — Seth Harwood– one serious and one tongue-in-cheek.
Let’s start with the serious: Jon Jordan, editor of Crimespree Magazine, one of the leading publishers of crime and hardboiled fiction and reviews, recently wrote this rave about JACK WAKES UP, Seth’s first podiobook. It’s available in print this Palm Sunday, March 16th.
Everyone has daydreams about a big score, a big hit, a mother lode that will put them on easy street. Most of us know that it’s just that, a dream. But for Jack Palms, a former movie star and recovering drug addict with nothing left to lose a chance comes along that may actually be the real thing. A one time score with some euro-dealers could put Jack back on the right track, or at least a track that isn’t dead ending.
Of course this being a work of fiction, a work of dark and noirish fiction at that we know it’s too good to be true. Well, Jack ends up in the middle of a royal clusterf**k and the wrong decision could see him behind bars for good or just plain dead.
This is a ride we’ve been on before, but with Harwood at the wheel this is a ride you won’t forget. Twists and turns to rival a le mans track this book really is an edge of your seat read. If this is Jack waking up I can’t wait to see him after his coffee!
And in less than serious news, acclaimed (and irreverent) video podcaster Soccergirl recently interviewed Seth Harwood on her show. Seth was a terribly good sport, hamming it up right along with Soccergirl. She’s rather… distracting. Wink-wink nudge-nudge. But he hung in there well. And went completely over-the-top with self-promotion. But hey, that’s the idea, right?
