Battlespace is a collection of military-themed science fiction due out Memorial Day weekend
2012. Jason Tudor, Keith Houin and Michael J. Wistock of The Science FictionShow podcast are producing Battlespace with all proceeds from the book sales going
to the Warrior Cry Music Project.
“Warrior Cry is a
group of volunteers who work with wounded soldiers in the Washington, DC,
metro area. It provides the soldiers with musical instruments and then
teaches them to play. Music is a great form of physical and mental
therapy. Working closely with therapists to create a positive educational
and therapeutic music program, Warrior Cry gives wounded soldiers
something positive to work toward and helps to get their minds off of
their injuries. Music also helps get our wounded soldiers out of their shell and
interested in socializing with others. Warrior Cry works with other groups and
non-profits to help better the lives of soldiers that were wounded in
battle.”
“TheScience Fiction Show is a weekly podcast available on iTunes looking into
all-things science fiction in film, television, books and elsewhere. Hosts
Jason Tudor, Keith Houin and Michael Wistock make an hour-long experience that
is entertaining with riveting interviews, insider information and great
personalities. Since May 2011, fans have downloaded the show 7,000 times and
has better than 300 loyal followers across Facebook and Twitter. Past interview
subjects have included comic book artists Steve Rude, Chris Trevis and
Christian Waggoner; writers Mike Baron, Adam Slade and Eric Trautmann; and
Hollywood special effects artist Shannon John Shea.”
Hats
off to the gentlemen at The Science Fiction Show for their support of this
excellent project and my sincere thanks for including a flash piece of mine in
the anthology. I’m truly honored.
very cool William ... I'm sure there's a story to be told about the concept of what the music program does with those who have been wounded!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jae. It's a good cause and a great idea for a charitable anthology.
