Behind the Cut – Episode 1: Gutterball

December 6, 2015 by cpgronlund Leave a Comment

With the monthly episodes of Not About Lumberjacks, I want to get into the story as quickly as I can and then close things out. Click play and you get a story.

I know there are people who like hearing the story behind stories, though — or finding out what the people they listen to or read are up to. So for those people, I’ve made a new show called Behind the Cut.

Behind the Cut is the companion to Not About Lumberjacks, and this is the first episode. I talk about the inspiration that led to writing and recording “Gutterball,” and offer a sneak peek at the next story episode.

I plan to keep episodes of Behind the Cut to 5-10 minutes. If this sounds like your kind of thing and you want to know what inspired me to write “Gutterball” the answer is a click away!

And a big thanks to Cynthia Griffith for providing the intro voice work! I look forward to working with Cynthia more soon.

Gutterball

November 17, 2015 by cpgronlund 7 Comments

Welcome to the first episode of Not About Lumberjacks, a monthly fiction podcast by me, Christopher Gronlund. Sometimes the stories I tell contain truths, but most of the time, they’re made up. Sometimes the stories are funny — other times they’re serious. Occasionally, the stories are just plain odd. But you have my word about one thing: I will never — EVER — share a story about lumberjacks.

This month, it’s a Thanksgiving tale about an English bulldog named Gutterball. Gutterball (and the family who loves him) must contend with the dog’s bad habit of eating everything in sight.

I hope you enjoy this all-ages tale.

Content Advisory: Gutterball does die…

Not About Lumberjacks Launch Date

November 15, 2015 by cpgronlund 2 Comments

I originally planned to launch on November 30, but I may launch a week sooner. I’m ahead of schedule, and with Thanksgiving right around the corner, it would be nice to have the first episode out before people begin traveling. (That, and there’s a little Thanksgiving theme to the first story I haven’t really considered until just now.)

So yes, the first episode will launch a week earlier than planned.

(And who knows…maybe even sooner.)
