GKN Weekly Update 6/28/10

And a Happy 98 Degree Day to you! One of the perks of being self-employed is that you only have to leave the house when you land a gig at a remote studio. You would literally have to pay me to go outside today!

Here are some tasty nuggets for you today...

I'm getting a logo! It's in the early stages and I don't have any sketches yet, but when I do I'll post them.

Remember last week when I told you about Infinivox's newest release "The Year's Top Ten Tales of Science Fiction 2"? You can hear one of the stories for free! To give a listen, go to:

BTW if you go to www.audible.com and search for me, you can find every audio book I've done!

Good friend and fellow GKN member Trish Basanyi & I did this spot together for Remove It Now:

Also, Trish and I had a great time last week recording all the voices for Blastaway! In the coming months we will put together a Facebook Group and perhaps a website promoting this project. Stay tuned!

TIP OF THE WEEK: Remember when I said my clan is having issues? Unfortunately, they have either stayed the same or gotten worse. I am getting more comfortable with the fact that there is nothing I do to help except to be present and supportive. Sometimes that is all you need to do to be a good family member or friend. It also reminds me of a great quote from the wise Dan Duckworth, "Don't complain and don't explain". The quote was originally intended for talents meeting agents, but I think it works here, too. I'm complaining less and explaining less in general and it's a good feeling.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK: Americans hate problems they can’t answer in ten seconds. Norman Mailer

STUFF!: I saw Jonah Hex and Get Him To The Greek last week. One was bad and one was hilarious. Can you guess which is which?
