An Introduction

Hello Readers,

     My name is Brandie Vizzier (last name is pronounced like cartier or perrier; its french). I am better known in the podcasting world as JadeDragoness. I am a newcomer and fresh face on the podicasting and podiobook scene.

  For those of you that do not know what a podcast or podiobook is, I will tell you. To put it simply, podcasting is blogging in audio form. Some think of it kind like radio broadcasting. It is done through RSS feed and Mp3s. People make an audio recording of whatever they want to talk about and upload it to the web for listeners to download. Podiobooks are podcasts of books, much like audiobooks, that authors have recorded or have had people act out. They then put these on the web for us to listen to and enjoy; usually for free.

  An excellent website to check out and get to know the podiobook community is www.podiobooks.com.

  In my future blogs I will be reviewing podiobooks that I have listened to and will introduce them to you. I also hope to have Q & A interviews with the authors of these books.

  I am a budding author and am learning all I can about podcasting thanks to Tee Morris "The Father of Podcasting" and his books Podcasting for Dummies and Expert Podcasting Practices for Dummies; both can be found on Amazon.com. I hope to bring you along on this journey with me. In future blogs I may even posts little tid-bits of books I am writing. I hope you will follow along and enjoy the ride.
