I'm a friend of C. E. Murphy's as well -- good idea.
Mickey Finn:
Interview ideas....which I'm sure have already occured to you, but just putting them down:
Robert (Wolfe).
Jim's agent, maybe?
Simkin.
Various cast members, if you can get them...especially, of course, Blackthorne and Mann.
James Marsters and the girls at Buzzy, if you can swing it.

Yeah, I'd love to make those happen. I think the podcast may need a little momentum first, a few episodes under its belt.
Also: I'd actually love to get *you* on the line at some point (maybe other forum members over time) to make for some fun "fan chats" about whatever's on our minds. Maybe we can work something out, there.

Oooo!
I'd definitely tune in for one that featured someone from the Donald Maass Literary Agency... Mr. Maass has some *damn* fine books on writing technique out there (I own two, and have made a point to have them in my store where I recommend and sell them regularly). To say nothing of the other wonderful subjects they could discuss, I'd simply love to hear a discussion of "Writing The Breakout Novel" in terms of Jim Butcher's works in specific...
I believe Jim wrote Storm Front *before* having an agent, but despite that, I've always thought the Dresden Files are textbook examples of the advice Donald Maass gives to new authors in his book and workbook. I'd also LOVE to hear Jim weigh in on how Maassively his writing has been influenced by his experiences with the agency. ;D

I'm definitely planning on doing a "how did Jim get published?" episode, given the frequency of the questions he gets asked about it.
