FEATURED GUEST ON THE GHOSTMAN & DEMON HUNTER SHOW MARCH 13!
So close to the Ides of March, is it really a good idea for me to be hanging around with those nutballs on The G&D Show? Time will tell! I had a blast in December, and now I’ll be the featured guest on the show Sunday, March 13, at 9:30 pm EST, discussing, of course, ghost stories and ghosts in Disney World. You’ll be able to listen live and get on the chatroom (no registration required) at this link: http://www.ghostanddemon.com/content/audio
Can’t listen in? I’ll be posting the episode here on my website and provide a link to the archived show once it’s up.
SATURDAY SLUMP? GET LIVING WITH DISNEY ON INSIDE THE MAGIC!
I’ve gotten a few e-mails about Nathan’s “Living with Disney” segment and Inside the Magic (www.insidethemagic.net), so I figured I’d provide two things: an Inside the Magic Show Description Guide (for those of you who aren’t listeners yet and want to try it—you won’t be sorry, I promise, it’s the most rockin’ Disney Park podcast on the ’net) and, if you would rather just listen to Nathan gripe (playfully) about what it’s like to live with me, the audio for only the episodes that you can listen to below. The episodes are short—anywhere between 5 and 10 minutes each.
ENJOY!!

LOVE TRAILERS? THE G&D SHOW’S GOT A COUPLE GREAT ONES!
Recently, I was reading a LinkedIn Group discussion about whether or not movies are helpful inspiration to writers.
Movies have always inspired me. They’ve helped me with dialogue, characterization…and so much else. But mostly what I love? A good, sexy trailer. Today, Shaun Burris–The Ghostman to Nathan’s Demon Hunter (and let’s admit it, Nathan’s other half except for me)–made a couple of really awesome trailers for their paranormal radio program, The Ghostman and Demon Hunter Show.
Here they are (the links take you to YouTube). Enjoy!

SO, WHAT’S IT REALLY LIKE TO LIVE WITH A DISNEY PARK FREAK?
Well, if there’s anyone that could tell you that, it’s Nathan. He decided to share his trials and tribulations with the popular Disney Park Podcast Inside the Magic, and so he created the LIVING WITH DISNEY segment, which ran on the show’s Episode 284 in September.
To listen to the whole episode—if you’re a Disney Park fan, you NEED to!—you want to hit this link here for http://www.insidethemagic.net/podcasts/284/
Those of you who aren’t Park fanatics and just want to hear Nathan make fun of me, you can click below and just hear the segment.
