It's "game on" this Friday, March 8, with "We Can't Dance Together." I moved it to Tales to Terrify in order to air it sooner and because the story scares the crap out of me. www.talestoterrify.com is where you can find it. We will mention your available books. I hope you'll tell your friends to listen, and I hope this exposure will sell some books for you.
