Steve’s Twitter, Cast Updates

Friday, July 31st, 2009

That’s right gang, Steve, our relucant teenage hero of the podcast, now has his own Twitter account (@steveharrier).  I’ll post more than just the latest episodes there, as I plan to do tweets that go along with the store…and yes, they’ll continue even after Steve ‘arrives’ in Eyri…despite there being no cell phone service.

I see it as a fun way to expand the Magic of Eyri universe a bit.  Can’t promise frequent updates, but you never know.  I have my own account (@danieljhogan) that I update a few times a day however, and it appears in the side bar of the website (and my personal website).

I may do a page here with Steve’s Twitter updates.

Speaking of page updates, I updated the Cast page — and I’m pleased as punch to announce Robin Hudson (of Angel Between the Lines and other podcasts) as our newest cast member.  Robin will be providing the voice of Eira the pelican, starting with Episode 010, “Are You a Pelican or a Pelican’t.”

Welcome back, loyal listeners.

In our last episode: Steve and Uncle Shameless were allowed into the Hawk King’s city, Da’Rahga, by a Hawken officer named Lexa.  However, their tour of the City of Flame was short lived after Uncle Shameless got into a fight with several Swantan warriors in a Da’Rahga pub.  Our heroes quickly found themselves in the Hawk King’s dungeon.   The episode ended with a Hawken warrior from pub visiting Steve and Uncle Shameless in the dungeon.

Today’s episode: In our eighth adventure, the Hawken warrior tries to convince Steve to hand over his blue heron amulet in exchange for the Hawk King sending our heroes home with his magic.  The negotiations take a nasty turn and Steve receives help from an unlikely source.
