Join hosts J.D. Barker, Christine Daigle, Dick Wybrow, and Kevin Tumlinson as they discuss the week’s entertainment news, including stories about Harper’s new deal, Amazon’s response to Spotify’s free audiobooks, and NBN’s closing. Then, stick around for a chat with Dennis E. Taylor!
Dennis E. Taylor:
My name is Dennis Taylor. I share that distinction with several other authors and a couple of musicians, unfortunately. Which is why I’m using Dennis E. Taylor. No, not Dennise Taylor, dangit 🙂. I am a retired computer programmer, snowboarder, mountain-biker, runner, and now author. I hope my novels will give you a few hours of entertainment and escape. I’m open to suggestions, comments, ideas, or whatever.
