For the interested.. there's a "rush" to help Phil Rossi's sci fi/horror novel 'Crescent' rise up the Amazon charts today. It's an excellent book (it's available on Podiobooks.com if you want a preview), with shipping it comes to about $18.50. If you're interested or just care to help out one of the podcast-novel-to-print type authors, its a worthy investment.
Anyway as of a few minutes ago he was doing readings and performing on a ustream channel as part of the promotion (might still be. At work, avoiding much video).
Here''s a link with info and assorted relevant links:
