Parsec Awards Finalist

I am happy to announced that the Dismay podcast is now a Parsec finalist for Best Audio Drama (Long Form including Independents). Here are all of the finalists in that category:

* Second Shift: An original fantasy Podplay
* The Failed Cities Monologues ---running lenghths
* Prometheus Radio Theatre
* Dismay

I'm not familiar with two of the podcasts, but I do know that The Failed Cities Monologues has put out some great stuff.

This is the second year being a finalist in the same category. That's twice being recognized for something I enjoy doing, and that is wonderful. Good luck to everyone who has been nominated as a Parsec finalist.

Parsec Award Nomination

Dismay has been nominated for a Parsec Award for the following:


Best Audio Drama (Long Form including Independents)
Best Audio Production

I have submitted a 10-minute sample of three past episodes for the panel of judges to review and determine if it will be a finalist. I was a finalist last year, an honour for which I am still glowing about, and it'll be wonderful to be a finalist again -- there are a lot of good podcasts in the running. Again, thanks to everyone who has supported Dismay.

Apologies and thanks

Due to my working life, I have not been able to produce an episode of Dismay for some time now despite my promising to do so. I would like to apologize to anyone waiting to listen and hear what happens next in the story. It seems that life can take you places you rarely expect and some things need to be put on hold. I do intend to continue this podcast as I enjoy making it and I enjoy the feedback so many of you have given me.

With that in mind, I would also like to thank everyone who has nominated the Dismay Podcast for Best Serialized Fiction at the Podcast Peer Awards. I appreciate the support. There are some excellent podcasts in the running, and I wish good luck to everyone. Check out the PPAs if you have not heard of them.

Regards,
Sean
