Off the Chain was on Blog Talk Radio for years we are now looking for a new home. This might be it. I have been a podcast host for 15 years. I am also now a publisher of books since my publisher died. I am also and artist and professional photograper. Here we will talk all things books, the industry how it has changed and what the future might bring. I would also like to promote authors, music aritsts and anyone who has a dream.
