This summer sucked.  It really did.  I'm not going to get into the specifics as most of you know why, but it really threw me off and continues to throw me off.  Unfortunately, I have this thing called a life and with it, responsibilities.  These responsibilities can be put off for only so long.  I can't allow my grief to overwhelm me to the point that I can't get anything done.

I'm getting it together.  I'm making the effort.  School starts on Tuesday and I'm sure that I'll lose myself in my work as I have done in the past.

And then there's the Rift.  It's taken all summer, but with the release of episode 99, we're finally back on track and will be releasing one episode a week on Tuesday as we did before the summer started.

And thank you all so much for your patience and kindness during this time.  I hope it was all worth it.

We're going to be ramping up here as we release not only the podcast, but the public access show as well.  We're going to begin an aggressive publicity campaign in the form of press releases, audio and video promos, and promotion of the show via social networks.  There is also the planning of a celebration of the 20th anniversary of the public access show that was put off by events this summer.

Stay tuned, folks.  We're far from done and the best is yet to come.
