Sorry if this is in the wrong place. I didn't see any kind of "new people say 'hi' here" area.

Obviously I'm a newb and apparently I'm becoming a simpering fanboy, as the highlight of my weekends recently has been is sitting on the couch with my girlfriend and indulging in a string of podcast.
I was raised on Duck's Breath Mystery Theater & Dr. Science, Garrison Keeler, and the annual review of the original Orson Well's "War of the Worlds." Beyond a doubt I'm addicted to the radio-theater experience. I've only listened to a couple pods and a handful of flashes, and a few stories on Pseudopod, and I can't get enough.
I'm not terribly well versed in Sci-Fi, though I have a great appreciation for it. My interest in stories comes more from my love of storytelling. Even trips to the grocery store can be fascinating if told well. I don’t often get hung up on the “big picture” of a story, though I can usually appreciate what the author was trying to convey. I do try to digest what the story was about, but I enjoy stories most for the experience of having heard it and the quirky concepts they include (like "My Friend is a Lesbian Zombie).
A suspension of disbelief isn't difficult for me as each story is in its own world where rules are different... however flaws in logic get my goat every time (humans are humans, wherever they go). I'm sure you'll see me around the forum. I just wanted to say "Hi" and thank "SFEley" for his great work!

Ps. Where do you get the readers? Are you looking for others?

Good luck! I'm here for the same thing. I'm SFF, not much horror, but if something prompts me in that direction...

I'm saying hello so my account survives. I appreciate the protection for any unpublished work from the myriad bot armies.

Hi everyone. I'm new and apparently not very smart.  I am replying to a 14 year old post and have no idea what i'm doing.  But I'm diving in.
 I love all Escape Artist material, and have for years and year. 

So, yeah.  Hi!

Hello, Everyone. I am glad to be here. I've been writing short stories for a long time. Took a pause for a couple years. Returned to it a few months ago and was excited when one of my pieces was a semifinalist for Flash Fiction. I take it as a sign to continue submitting.

Hello from the confluence of the Mississippi and Minnesota Rivers!
I thought I was a novelist until I never finished any. Then I decided to write haiku, just to finish something! After that success - even published a few - I'm working up to short stories and hope to submit some here. And listen to more of the wonderful thoughts and authors EA publishes.

And, wow, how hard it is to post. I've been looking for the answer to Title of story in Escape Pod Episode 1 for over 10 minutes. I am not a newbie at searching. Finally found it. You have to have a colon in the search.

Hi. I'm in this crazy jorney to listen to all episodes from EscapePod, Pseudopod, Podcastle and Cast of Wonders. Will I do it in my mortal lifespan? No idea. But it will be fun to try.
