Stalled in the Blogosphere

Two years ago we intended to write much more frequently. The Peanut Whistle was originally a way to present my war stories from the world of small market radio and my other pursuits that stemmed from it. Now it’s 2011 and most of my stories (many of them 25+ years old) have been told (and often retold.) What now? Make new stories.

In 2009 we started an experimental Internet radio station called the GRIN. It flopped after a short time; although, along the way, we gained a few loyal fans of my particular radio show. Some local folks never knew I was in radio, not expecting me to be the big voice behind the mic. As a result of my recent exposure on the web I have been asked to narrate the Easter program at my church. I will once again be in the booth reading copy--this time around actually seeing my listeners. I begin practice tonight.

Stay tuned.
