Five years ago, Joni Cole was having a very bad day. She imagined her
friends were living "big lives"--that instead of sitting in a home
office and eating lunch out of a microwave box, they were "On
Assignment."
Joni turned that bad day into a great book idea. She invited women
from all over the country to share their day diaries.
This week--the first week of 2006--the second volume of This Day In
The Life is hitting the bookstores.
It is an addictive read and readers will walk away wishing they could"
go to lunch" with the women who share their feelings, thoughts,
passions and fears.
The book has earned a starred review from Publisher's Weekly.
This is my very first attempt at podcasting. Let's just say I have a
lot to learn.
First, I did the interview over Skype which I thought was very cool.
Only problem-- somehow I didn't have my computer settings to allow my
mic to record so while Joni's answers are loud and clear my questions
were lost.
Then I did some direct recording into Audacity and while they sounded
fine in playback, when I edit them in with Joni's soundbites, the
volume on my soundbites will make professional audio folks shake their
heads in disbelief.
And figuring out how to convert my WAV file to a MP3 that didn't sound
like a cat scratching a blackboard was an all day endeavor.
So yes, this is not the finest hour of podcasting history but it's my
first podcast.
Thanks for listening!
