Hey fellow podcasters! J.C. Hutchins, author of the "7th Son" podiobook here. I need your help!

Book III in the 7th Son trilogy will debut on 07-07-07, and I'm looking to publicize it throughout the podosphere. One of the ways: The first-ever cross-country, 50-state podcasting book tour.

The goal: To do at least 50 audio interviews with podcasters living in all 50 U.S. states. I want to hook up with podcasters from Alabama to Wyoming -- and every state in-between. Interviews with folks from other countries are welcome too.

I can't do this without your help, podcasters. If you'd like conduct a brief interview with me for your show and participate in this "first" in podcasting, please send me an email at 7thSonNovel@gmail.com and tell me what U.S. state (or country) in which you are based. I'll create a list of states covered, and update this thread accordingly.

What's in it for you? All participating podcasters will get link love on a special page at my website, and shout-outs in the first episodes of Book III when it debuts in July. That means exposure to tens of thousands of listeners!

Can't record over Skype? We'll try to work something out.

UPDATE! UPDATE! (April 15)
Hot dog, you guys are AMAZING. 32 states (and 2 countries outside the U.S.) will be represented in the 50 State Podcast Tour! But Hutchins still needs podcasters from 18 OTHER STATES.

If you're a podcaster in one of the states listed below and would like to participate, please send me an email. We're on our way to creating the first-ever countrywide podcast tour! And listen: if your state is already "taken" and you want to participate, hell ... drop me a line anyway. I'm happy to double-up on states. Thanks in advance!

 Alaska
 Arkansas
 Connecticut
 Delaware
 Hawaii
 Idaho
 Iowa
 Louisiana
 Mississippi
 Montana

Hi J.C....

Ink 'n Doodles Creative Workshop complies!

Mark your home-state of Florida down on your tour!

Mrs. B is here in Little Rhody... :-)

Come down to San Antonio on your 50 State-Tour! Jackie and I would love to have some coffee with you on the Morning BrewCast. We'll even brew you up some Kona Fancy on our French Press.

Cheers,

You can count me for Virginia and/or Maryland if you want.

The Balticon Podcast is about Balticon, which is based in Baltimore. But we live in VA, so you can count it for VA or you can also do our ADDCast, which is all Virginia.

Your choice...

Crap, someone else has Arizona already.

Dagnabbit! Someone already got the Hoosier state.

Hot damn, you guys rock! Even more states secured! Keep 'em coming ... with your help, we'll make this the talk of the 'sphere!

damn, Illinois is already taken!

Hmmm Wandering the country...Let me know if you pickup Wander Radio anywhere...
Other than Oklahoma where I am at.

Barely, drop him a line anyway. He says he's willing to double up if he gets more than one person in a single state.

KnitWitch complies in Colorado.

The Zone is coming back for season two!

Kilroy2.0 is everywhere!

30 states represented! Awesome, guys. If you're a podcaster living in one of the states mentioned in the "States Remaining" list and want to participate, please drop me an email.

If you're a listener or podcaster who KNOWS of a podcast hailing from one of the States Remaining, please let me know where I can find the show. I'll contact the podcast and tell them you sent me! Thanks!

Hot dog! Alabama added to the list, and more NJ and Maryland interviews in the works! Thanks, Spartacus, Command Line and Lynette Radio! You guys ROCK.

Podcasters in the remaining states: Drop me a line if you'd like to get in on this. It's a true podcasting "first," and I'll be sharing the love!

Rock on! Kansas represented in 50/50/50. Thanks, Jason from We Are Not Cool!

Still 18 states remaining ... will you be a part of podcast history? Drop me an email and we'll make it happen!

Having just completed my interview with J. C. Hutchins, I would strongly encourage anyone with a podcast (especially in one of the unclaimed states) to take him up on his offer. He's very easy to talk to and not at all intimidating. (He only used his Kilroy 2.0 voice once in the interview.)

I don't see NY on your remaining list, but see no podcasters who claimed it. If it is still open, I am in for NY.

Thanks for your support, Bruce! Just send me an email at 7thSonNovel@gmail.com and we'll get the ball rolling! I'm looking forward to it!
