Ranty Blog: Daniel’s Update
This isn’t
so much a blog post as a way to tell you listeners/readers a few little
upcoming projects I hope you will be interested in. First thing is this, I’ve
recently written a large format story that I’m hoping to post here on the Ranty
blog for people to enjoy. A year ago my brother was married during a weekend
that was full of ups and downs. I acted as his best man and with the event
taking place at a casino found myself gambling and drinking over a three day
period. The day after the big event, I sat down at a laptop still drunk from
the night before and while smoking a cigarette pounded out a page or two of
what happened that weekend. I told myself I would write this for fun and then I
quit doing it. I got depressed, started drinking like a fish and let my life
grind to a halt. At this point I never intended to write this out for anyone to
read outside of my inner circle of friends. “Need something to pass the time?
Try this.” I told myself I would get back on that horse and write. So I did. I
wrote, edited and repeated the process. I made something funny, interesting, a
little touching and most of all, real. I’d love for people to enjoy something I
made but at the end of the day, I said I was going to do this and dammit if I
didn’t finish the fucking thing. So coming soon to a cell phone or laptop near
you, Daniels Wedding Blues by Tyler Daniels.
The second big news I have is that I have been asked to
develop and create a podcast for the Couch Party Network. I am honored to have
been given this opportunity to take a ball and run with it into an end zone of
good listening. I’ve been struggling to come up with a title, figure out the
ins and outs and finalize what I want it to be but I swear its coming. I know I
am the farthest thing from a TRB or Heather D and it is through them that you
fans put up with me in any regard but I hope that when I bring this to the
Couch Party Network that you will give me a listen or two before deciding if
you are done with Daniels.
Between my
guest appearances, blog work and upcoming podcast I hope that you will let me
know what you think of what I bring to the table. I think any of us would love
to hear if you like what we do and what you want to see/hear more of. @drunkoncomedy
is my Twitter so message me and let me know you want this. Show me some love
and keep me from that forth glass of bourbon tonight as I jump back on to
Microsoft Word and bang out some more content. God speed and party on!
