Novel Writing and Podcasting In 30 Days Nov 3

Welcome friend to Create Art Podcast where I help you tame your inner critic and create more than we consume. I am Timothy Kimo Brien your thankful head instigator with over 20 years in arts and education. How I accomplish this is by providing you with commentary, interviews, discussions, and projects that will inspire you to create art. This month I will be podcasting daily and writing a novel in 30 days. I am participating in NaPodPoMo and NaNoWriMo again this year as I did last year and you can hear those episodes here. You will be able to listen and read along with what I wrote for the day. I like to practice what I preach when it comes to art so I am challenging myself to write and having you come along for the ride. It is my hope this inspires you to accomplish your goals with your art and if you would like to share what you are doing email me at timothy@createartpodcast.com

NaNoWriMo: National Novel Writing Month began in 1999 as a daunting but straightforward challenge: to write 50,000 words of a novel in thirty days. Now, each year on November 1, hundreds of thousands of people around the world begin to write, determined to end the month with 50,000 words of a brand new novel. They enter the month as elementary school teachers, mechanics, or stay-at-home parents. They leave novelists.

NaPodPoMo: NaPodPoMo* is a month-long event similar to National Novel Writing Month aka NaNoWriMo. The difference? Well, instead of writing a 50,000-word novel, you post a podcast episode every day for 30 days from November 1st-30th. Use any platform you desire. From full production studio to iPhone app and just about anything in between. The goal is to use the challenge of podcasting daily as a form of podcasting boot camp.

While waiting he sent a preliminary report to Bruce that included who was in the group, which TV stations showed up, and the last names and badge numbers of the police officers controlling the scene. He also reviewed the postings from the neighborhood social media page and noted the commenters and responses. He was looking for anyone who did not reside in the neighborhood proper and noted the locations of those who were outside of their immediate neighborhood and began searching through those profiles. The upload from the glasses to his video processing computer, he had several setups including his day job set up, took about an hour, and in that time, he had already logged the names and profiles of twenty people outside the neighborhood who had commented on the shooting. When he got the notification that the video was uploaded, he started his facial recognition program on the raw video and loaded the profile pictures of the outsiders who had commented on the social media page. He planned on using their likeness and inserting an animated image of them to discredit any reports.  

Across the street, Mack pulled out his digital recorder and began uploading the audio to his Digital Audio Workstation. The microphone on his recorder was sensitive enough to pick up the calls coming through the police officer's radios without him...
