So there are a few more listeners this week then last. It looks like it will be a slow process building up a listenership. I still have not found much time to work on getting word of the show out there. I think that this week would be a good time to take a few lines to tell you about me and why I am putting the show out. So who am I. Well I can tell that last year this time I worked as a manager for a nationwide retail chain I had 4 weeks paid vacation, good medical/dental insurance 401k an income over the national average and I was miserable. I had been for years however last January I sold a photo of mine. The offer was out of the blue and I did not think about it much after. I did start submitting and taking more photos and in June I stopped working at kohls invested in a much better camera and some other gear. I started doing photography full time and have been building that business ever sense. That has gone well and keeps me feed and sheltered for the most part but I have in the last few months started working 3 10pm-6am shifts a week to supplement my income. It also give me some freedom to work on less profitable art projects. So we come to the part about the show. I was putting out a the happy phantom podcast when I was working for the man full time. When I started working for me I just did not have the time to get it done at first I put it out less often then not at all. I did find my self thinking about that first song to play on my short walk home after I left work. I found that the right song really gave me a chance to unwind and leave that all behind. I also missed podcasting so a few weeks ago I just started back up again. And yea I do listen to it on my walks home work or after leaving an assignment. Ok so as of right now I only have shows laid out till Wednesday. Monday we have a nice tripy song from Pan. Tuesday we get two tracks form Sunburn in Cypress. I will be trying some thing new I will be playing some samples of a not so podsafe artist that I like and that you will never hear on the radio. OK thats all I have this week. If you are just reading this post you are missing out on the nice pics I add to the pdf so go ahead and download it.
