Yay for NaNoWriMo! YOU CAN DO IT!
And, once again the podcast didn’t make it into the iTunes feed. If you have the time (ha!) to fix that, it would be awesome.

For anyone interested, the story Gilman refers to is The Anabasis by Xenophon. Check out this Wikipedia link for more info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anabasis_(Xenophon)
Also: Great interviews, Mur. Keep ‘em coming.

Yes, with the name accented on the second syllable. And the film that Gilman cited is this one.
