   SciFi Fridays - ep 10 - Dial G for Gravity Chapters 10 and 11

   Here’s part 10 of our regular science fiction serial, featuring chapters 10 and 11of Dial G for Gravity, a SciFi comedy. There are plenty of gags in this episode, so I crack up several times. Hey, I wrote this years ago, so the jokes sneaked up on me, and I record these sessions ‘as live’ - Short of actually going live, which I shy away from because of my crappy rural broadband, this stuff is as authentic as I can get it. I hope you enjoy it. NB - Contains some mild profanity!

   SciFi Fridays - ep 9 - Dial G for Gravity Chapter 9 part 2

   Here’s part 8 of our regular science fiction serial, featuring chapter 9 of Dial G for Gravity, a SciFi comedy. I didn’t get through the whole chapter as it was quite a long one, so tune in next week for part 2. NB - Contains a swear word! Keen listeners will note that I was surprised to read out an F bomb in this episode. I tend to avoid profanity in my books, not because I’m prudish but because I think swear words very rarely add anything to the experience. These things are subjective, but I have a line that I draw. In this case I was reading from an old paperback that I first put out years ago. In the newly edited version, the F-bomb has been removed.

   SciFi Fridays - ep 4 - Dial G for Gravity Chapter 4

   First, a quick bit of housekeeping: Too many emails? Starting from next week, I’m going to send out only one email a week from substack, on Fridays, with links to all the readings and any other interesting content I’ve posted during the week. Yes, you can subscribe in substack to only those sections you’d like, e.g. only SciFi Friday, but I’m not here to make extra work for you. This isn’t an issue if you’re listening or watching on YouTube or Spotify or wherever, so those episodes will continue to appear day by day. I hope that makes sense. Now on with the show and part 4 of our regular science fiction serial. This is chapter four of Dial G for Gravity, a SciFi comedy. ICYMI Chapter 1 is here: I tried to read two chapters, but I started making too many slips, so I cut it short and I’ll have another go at the next chapter next week. If you enjoy these kinds of shenanigans, please consider liking, sharing, subscribing, commenting and so on. Thank you for your support. This reading was recorded ‘as live’ i.e. unedited, a straight reading with no breaks. I made mistakes, but I took a run up and did it again. I hope you enjoy it. The audio is available as a podcast. Thank you for watching, listening, subscribing, and a huge thank you if you share this with other SFF fans, and here’s a handy button if you feel so inclined: If you’d like to read along or read ahead, here’s where you can find Dial G for Gravity (https://books2read.com/dialg) Take care and happy reading, Mikey PS You can keep me doing these readings by upgrading your membership (and claiming a lifetime discount at: authormichaelcampling.substack.com/discount (https://authormichaelcampling.substack.com/discount) or f you prefer, you can send a mug of tea at: ko-fi.com/michaelcampling (https://ko-fi.com/michaelcampling) This is a public episode.

    SciFi Fridays - ep 3 - Dial G for Gravity Chapter3

    Here’s part 3 of our regular science fiction serial. This is chapter three of Dial G for Gravity, a SciFi comedy. ICYMI Chapter 1 is here: I couldn’t help laughing at one of my own scifi references in this episode, but as they say, don’t take life too seriously; you’ll never get out alive.

    SciFi Fridays - ep 2 - Dial G for Gravity 2

    Welcome to our regular science fiction serial. This is chapter two of Dial G for Gravity, a SciFi comedy. ICYMI Chapter 1 is here: There’s some very mild profanity, lots of gags, and a tonne of references (homages if you will) to classic SciFi series such as Star Trek. This reading was recorded ‘as live’ i.e. unedited, a straight reading with no breaks. I made mistakes, but I took a run up and did it again. I hope you enjoy it. The audio is available as a podcast.

    SciFi Fridays - Ep 1 - Dial G for Gravity 1

    The first episode in what I hope will be a regular science fiction serial. We begin with Dial G for Gravity, a SciFi comedy. There’s some very mild profanity, lots of gags, and a tonne of references (homages if you will) to classic SciFi series such as Star Trek. This reading was recorded ‘as live’ i.e. unedited, a straight reading with no breaks. I made mistakes, but I took a run up and did it again. I hope you enjoy it. All being well, the audio is available as a podcast. Please note that each themed section has its own newsletter and its own podcast. This is so that you can pick and choose which genres you’d like to follow. You can also unsubscribe from each genre individually, so if, say, you want to ditch the thrillers but keep the SciFi, you can do that. Here’s some guidance from substack (https://support.substack.com/hc/en-us/articles/8914938285204-How-do-I-subscribe-to-or-unsubscribe-from-a-section-on-Substack) Thank you for watching, listening, subscribing, and a huge thank you if you share this with other book lovers, and here’s a handy button if you feel so inclined: Take care and happy reading, Mikey PS You can keep me doing these readings by upgrading your membership (and claiming a lifetime discount at: authormichaelcampling.substack.com/discount (https://authormichaelcampling.substack.com/discount) or f you prefer, you can send a mug of tea at: ko-fi.com/michaelcampling (https://ko-fi.com/michaelcampling) This is a public episode.
