Just got back from an amazing trip to Barcelona, Spain. \u00a0Freaked out a little when I toured the Picasso Museum, pressed play on the English translation MP3 player and hear–what I thought– was WCP Irregular Bill Kirton’s voice taking me through the various phases of Picasso’s painting life. \u00a0I subsequently found out later (from the man himself) that it, alas, was not Bill.

Picture this man explaining Picasso. \u00a0Only Eden Baylee writes better Erotica.<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

But my trip to Spain has inspired the three word prompt for episode 49. \u00a0Those three words? \u00a0All in good time, dear sinners. \u00a0But first:<\/p>\n

As we continue our march toward the seminal Episode 50 I\u2019m soliciting ideas for the big show\u2026so send me your thoughts on that.\u00a0 Should it be a \u201cBest of?\u201d\u00a0 Should we include Author interviews?\u00a0 Should everyone record their stories naked (Like I always do)?\u00a0 Who knows\u2026email me<\/a>\u00a0or\u00a0tweet me<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In the meantime, for those unfamiliar with the show\u2026<\/p>\n

The Word Count Podcast is truly one of my joys. I direct, produce, write and host the show\u2014and also come up with the various themes our writers\u2014The \u201cWord Count Irregulars\u201d\u2014use to create unique and brilliant stories.<\/p>\n

There are no endorsements\u2026no paid stories.\u00a0 It\u2019s all done for the love of the written word.\u00a0 And downloads are always free.\u00a0 Always.<\/p>\n

The only thing I ask is a little help via social media to point folks at the show.<\/p>\n
