Blogger No More! And other Updates

We moved our (my wife is a web designer who maintains several websites for customers) websites to DreamHost.com last night. Um… how about 2 TB of bandwidth, and we paid less than $100.00 for two years? Hell yeah!

My first order of business was installing WordPress and Podpress. I’m trying out different themes until I find one we’ll further modify to make it relate to the novel.

For those of you just learning about me, I’ve written a novel that I will be podcasting here. I’m performing final edits of the novel, which will be available through Lulu.com. Once I’ve uploaded the novel, I’ll begin the podcast here. My main site for the book itself is http://pgholyfield.com (EDIT: Since yesterday I’ve decided to use this site for everything… both for the novel and the podcast).

I’m contemplating whether or not I want to move over my blogs from blogger. I’m leaning towards no… although if the process is as simple as it appears, I might move posts over and then delete most of the ones I don’t want/need here.

For the last six months I’ve been learning the ins and outs of podcasting. I’ve contributed several promos, skits, and short stories to several podcasts out there, in order to learn Adobe Audition and get my name out there. I’ve made a lot of friends along the way and will post about them here from time to time.

I will be recording two or three T-Minus podcasts and posting them here before the podcast novel begins. I want to make sure the feed is correct and things are moving before starting the novel. Plus I’m still waiting on some sound equipment before I start recording the novel chapters.

More later. Welcome and I hope you make Murder at Avedon Hill an oft-visited site!
