'''Scott Carl Sigler''' <!-- (born [[November 30]]) --> is a contemporary [[Wikipedia:American literature|American author]] of [[Wikipedia:science fiction|science fiction]] and [[Wikipedia:Horror fiction|horror]] as well as an avid [[Wikipedia:podcaster|podcaster]]. Originally from [[Wikipedia:Michigan|Michigan]] he now resides in [[Wikipedia:San Diego, California|San Diego, California]].<br />

==Life==<br />
Raised in [[Wikipedia:Cheboygan, Michigan|Cheboygan, Michigan]] Sigler's father passed his love of classic monster movies along to his son. His mother, a school teacher, encouraged his reading offering him any book he wanted. Sigler wrote his first monster story, "Tentacles", at the age of eight.<br />
<br />
Sigler didn't travel far for college having attended [[Wikipedia:Olivet College|Olivet College]] (Olivet, MI) and [[Wikipedia:Cleary College|Cleary College]] (Ann Arbor, MI) where he earned a BA in Journalism and a BS in Marketing. Scott has had a varied career path having worked fast food, picking fruit, shoveling horse manure, a sports reporter, director of marketing for a software company, software startup founder, marketing consultant, guitar salesman, bum in a rock band, and social media strategist before turning in his corporate ID to write fiction full time.<br />
<br />
===Use of Technology===<br />
''[[EarthCore]]'' was originally published in 2001 by iPublish, an AOL/Time Warner imprint. With the novel doing well as a promotional [[Wikipedia:ebook|ebook]], Time Warner was planning on publishing the novel. With the economic slump following [[Wikipedia:September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks|September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks]], Time Warner did away with the imprint in 2004, Scott decided to start podcasting his novel in March, 2005 as ''the worlds first podcast only novel'' to build hype and garner an audience for his work. Sigler considered it a "no brainer" to offer the book as a free audio download. Having searched for podcast novel's and finding none, Sigler decided to be the first. A shameless self-promoter and worker of viral marketing, Sigler was able to get ''[[EarthCore]]'' offered as a paid download on [[Wikipedia:iTunes|iTunes]] in 2006. <br />
<br />
After ''[[EarthCore|EarthCore's]]'' success (''[[EarthCore]]'' had over 10,000 subscribers), Sigler released ''[[Ancestor]]'', ''[[Infection]]'', ''[[The Rookie]]'', ''[[Nocturnal]]'', and the ''Bloodcast'' series of short stories via podcast. Currently he is producing his next series, ''[[The Crypt]]''.<br />
<br />
Pushing boundaries, Sigler released an Adobe PDF version of ''[[Ancestor]]'' on Monday 19th March 2007 through Sigler's own podcast as well as others. ''[[Ancestor]]'' was released on April 1, 2007 to much internet hype and, despite having been released two weeks earlier as a free ebook, reached #7 on [[Wikipedia:Amazon.com|Amazon.com]]'s best-seller list and #1 on Sci-Fi, Horror and Genre-Fiction on the day of release.<br />
<br />
Sigler is leveraging [[Wikipedia:new media|new media]] to keep in-touch with his fans, regularly talking with them using [[Wikipedia:social networking|social networking]] sites, via email, and IM.<br />
<br />
Scott Sigler was featured in a New York Times article<ref>http://www.nytimes.com/2007/03/01/books/01podb.html</ref> on March 1, 2007 by Andrew Adam Newman. It was covering authors using podcasting innovations to garner a broader audience.<br />

<br />
==Influences==<br />
===[[Wikipedia:Stephen King|Stephen King]]===<br />
Sigler calls King a ''master craftsman'', who writes from the "regular guy" strata from which he hails. "His older stuff had no pretense, no "higher message," no “I’m extremely important” attitude, just rock-solid storytelling and character development. He also would whack any character at any time, and that’s what hooked you in – when characters got into trouble, you didn’t know if they’d live, unlike 99% of the books out there that are trying to develop franchise characters."<br />
<br />
===[[Wikipedia:Jack London|Jack London]]===<br />
According to Sigler, "[[Wikipedia:The Sea Wolf|The Sea Wolf]] totally changed my views on life".<br />
<br />
===[[:Wikipedia:King_Kong_(1976_film)|King Kong]]===<br />
Sigler saw King Kong (1976 version) when he was a little kid. He said it, "Scared the crap out of me. I hid behind my dad’s shoulder and begged to leave the theatre. As soon as we were out, I asked when we could see it again – that was the moment I knew I wanted to tell monster stories. I wanted to have that same impact on other people."<br />

===Future Stories===<br />
----<br />
*''[[Earthcore II: Mt. Fitzroy|Earthcore II: Mount Fitz Roy]]'' was officially announced at the September 2006 Portable Media Expo (now renamed "The Podcast & New Media Expo") in Ontario, California. The podcast sequel to ''[[Earthcore]]'' follows a heavily-armed team led by the surviving [[Patrick O'Doyle]] as they head off to the other known [[Rocktopi]] site at Mt. Fitzroy, Argentina. While no official release date has been announced, the author stated it would be out approximately one year from the date of the 2006 Expo, which will now be pushed back due to other book releases.<br />
<br />
* [[The Gangster]] (''Galactic Football League Series Book 6'')<ref>[https://www.facebook.com/groups/SiglerJunkies/permalink/1060556660769565/ book name announced at Dragon*Con 2018]</ref><br />
<br />
*''Galactic Football League Series Book 7''<br />
<br />
*''Galactic Football League Series Book 8''<br />
<br />
*''[[The Killer]]'' Galactic Football League Series, Novella VI, by Scott Sigler & [[J.C. Hutchins]]. Last planned novella for the GFL series.<br />
<br />
*''[[Nocturnal]]'', release of a reworked story line from the originally podcasted novel.<br />
<br />
==Trivia== <br />
* On episodes released the week of [[Wikipedia:J|June 5th]] [[Wikipedia:2006|2006]], Sigler and fellow podcast novelist [[Wikipedia:J. C. Hutchins|J. C. Hutchins]] announced a contest called "[http://jchutchins.net/7Son/SHARE%20THE%20PAIN.html Share The Pain]" in which listeners are to identify the six instances in which the storyline of Sigler's ''Infection'' podcast novel collide with that of Hutchins' ''[[Wikipedia:7th Son (Podiobook)|7th Son]]''. The contest was run by Sigler, Hutchins and [[Wikipedia:Podcast Pickle|Podcast Pickle]].<br />
* Scott Sigler has made mention of another Scott Sigler, who performs as a clown and has apparently been mistaken for Scott the author. Strangely or suspiciously, the "other" Scott Sigler's clown name is Mookie, the same as Scott's dog.<br />
* In the premiere episode ''[[Sacred Cow]]'' on Stranger Things, Sigler played the voice of Bishop Kirland's personal assistant and can be seen with a large pair of steel scissors.<br />

<br />
'''Scott Carl Sigler''' <!-- (born [[November 30]]) --> is a contemporary [[Wikipedia:American literature|American author]] of [[Wikipedia:science fiction|science fiction]] and [[Wikipedia:Horror fiction|horror]] as well as an avid [[Wikipedia:podcaster|podcaster]]. Originally from [[Wikipedia:Michigan|Michigan]] he now resides in [[Wikipedia:San Diego, California|San Diego, California]].<br />
{{TOCleft}}<br />
==Life==<br />
Raised in [[Wikipedia:Cheboygan, Michigan|Cheboygan, Michigan]] Sigler's father passed his love of classic monster movies along to his son. His mother, a school teacher, encouraged his reading offering him any book he wanted. Sigler wrote his first monster story, "Tentacles", at the age of eight.<br />
<br />
Sigler didn't travel far for college having attended [[Wikipedia:Olivet College|Olivet College]] (Olivet, MI) and [[Wikipedia:Cleary College|Cleary College]] (Ann Arbor, MI) where he earned a BA in Journalism and a BS in Marketing. Scott has had a varied career path having worked fast food, picking fruit, shoveling horse manure, a sports reporter, director of marketing for a software company, software startup founder, marketing consultant, guitar salesman, bum in a rock band, and social media strategist before turning in his corporate ID to write fiction full time.<br />
<br />
===Use of Technology===<br />
''[[EarthCore]]'' was originally published in 2001 by iPublish, an AOL/Time Warner imprint. With the novel doing well as a promotional [[Wikipedia:ebook|ebook]], Time Warner was planning on publishing the novel. With the economic slump following [[Wikipedia:September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks|September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks]], Time Warner did away with the imprint in 2004, Scott decided to start podcasting his novel in March, 2005 as ''the worlds first podcast only novel'' to build hype and garner an audience for his work. Sigler considered it a "no brainer" to offer the book as a free audio download. Having searched for podcast novel's and finding none, Sigler decided to be the first. A shameless self-promoter and worker of viral marketing, Sigler was able to get ''[[EarthCore]]'' offered as a paid download on [[Wikipedia:iTunes|iTunes]] in 2006. <br />
<br />
After ''[[EarthCore|EarthCore's]]'' success (''[[EarthCore]]'' had over 10,000 subscribers), Sigler released ''[[Ancestor]]'', ''[[Infection]]'', ''[[The Rookie]]'', ''[[Nocturnal]]'', and the ''Bloodcast'' series of short stories via podcast. Currently he is producing his next series, ''[[The Crypt]]''.<br />
<br />
Pushing boundaries, Sigler released an Adobe PDF version of ''[[Ancestor]]'' on Monday 19th March 2007 through Sigler's own podcast as well as others. ''[[Ancestor]]'' was released on April 1, 2007 to much internet hype and, despite having been released two weeks earlier as a free ebook, reached #7 on [[Wikipedia:Amazon.com|Amazon.com]]'s best-seller list and #1 on Sci-Fi, Horror and Genre-Fiction on the day of release.<br />
<br />
Sigler is leveraging [[Wikipedia:new media|new media]] to keep in-touch with his fans, regularly talking with them using [[Wikipedia:social networking|social networking]] sites, via email, and IM.<br />
<br />
Scott Sigler was featured in a New York Times article<ref>http://www.nytimes.com/2007/03/01/books/01podb.html</ref> on March 1, 2007 by Andrew Adam Newman. It was covering authors using podcasting innovations to garner a broader audience.<br />

<br />
==Influences==<br />
===[[Wikipedia:Stephen King|Stephen King]]===<br />
Sigler calls King a ''master craftsman'', who writes from the "regular guy" strata from which he hails. "His older stuff had no pretense, no "higher message," no “I’m extremely important” attitude, just rock-solid storytelling and character development. He also would whack any character at any time, and that’s what hooked you in – when characters got into trouble, you didn’t know if they’d live, unlike 99% of the books out there that are trying to develop franchise characters."<br />
<br />
===[[Wikipedia:Jack London|Jack London]]===<br />
According to Sigler, "[[Wikipedia:The Sea Wolf|The Sea Wolf]] totally changed my views on life".<br />
<br />
===[[:Wikipedia:King_Kong_(1976_film)|King Kong]]===<br />
Sigler saw King Kong (1976 version) when he was a little kid. He said it, "Scared the crap out of me. I hid behind my dad’s shoulder and begged to leave the theatre. As soon as we were out, I asked when we could see it again – that was the moment I knew I wanted to tell monster stories. I wanted to have that same impact on other people."<br />
<br />

===Future Stories===<br />
----<br />
*''[[Earthcore II: Mt. Fitzroy|Earthcore II: Mount Fitz Roy]]'' was officially announced at the September 2006 Portable Media Expo (now renamed "The Podcast & New Media Expo") in Ontario, California. The podcast sequel to ''[[Earthcore]]'' follows a heavily-armed team led by the surviving [[Patrick O'Doyle]] as they head off to the other known [[Rocktopi]] site at Mt. Fitzroy, Argentina. While no official release date has been announced, the author stated it would be out approximately one year from the date of the 2006 Expo, which will now be pushed back due to other book releases.<br />
<br />
* [[The Gangster]] (''Galactic Football League Series Book 6'')<ref>[https://www.facebook.com/groups/SiglerJunkies/permalink/1060556660769565/ book name announced at Dragon*Con 2018]</ref><br />
<br />
*''Galactic Football League Series Book 7''<br />
<br />
*''Galactic Football League Series Book 8''<br />
<br />
*''[[The Killer]]'' Galactic Football League Series, Novella VI, by Scott Sigler & [[J.C. Hutchins]]. Last planned novella for the GFL series.<br />
<br />
*''[[Nocturnal]]'', release of a reworked story line from the originally podcasted novel.<br />
<br />
==Trivia== <br />
* On episodes released the week of [[Wikipedia:J|June 5th]] [[Wikipedia:2006|2006]], Sigler and fellow podcast novelist [[Wikipedia:J. C. Hutchins|J. C. Hutchins]] announced a contest called "[http://jchutchins.net/7Son/SHARE%20THE%20PAIN.html Share The Pain]" in which listeners are to identify the six instances in which the storyline of Sigler's ''Infection'' podcast novel collide with that of Hutchins' ''[[Wikipedia:7th Son (Podiobook)|7th Son]]''. The contest was run by Sigler, Hutchins and [[Wikipedia:Podcast Pickle|Podcast Pickle]].<br />
* Scott Sigler has made mention of another Scott Sigler, who performs as a clown and has apparently been mistaken for Scott the author. Strangely or suspiciously, the "other" Scott Sigler's clown name is Mookie, the same as Scott's dog.<br />
* In the premiere episode ''[[Sacred Cow]]'' on Stranger Things, Sigler played the voice of Bishop Kirland's personal assistant and can be seen with a large pair of steel scissors.<br />

<br />
'''Scott Carl Sigler''' <!-- (born [[November 30]]) --> is a contemporary [[Wikipedia:American literature|American author]] of [[Wikipedia:science fiction|science fiction]] and [[Wikipedia:Horror fiction|horror]] as well as an avid [[Wikipedia:podcaster|podcaster]]. Originally from [[Wikipedia:Michigan|Michigan]] he now resides in [[Wikipedia:San Diego, California|San Diego, California]].<br />
{{TOCleft}}<br />
==Life==<br />
Raised in [[Wikipedia:Cheboygan, Michigan|Cheboygan, Michigan]] Sigler's father passed his love of classic monster movies along to his son. His mother, a school teacher, encouraged his reading offering him any book he wanted. Sigler wrote his first monster story, "Tentacles", at the age of eight.<br />
<br />
Sigler didn't travel far for college having attended [[Wikipedia:Olivet College|Olivet College]] (Olivet, MI) and [[Wikipedia:Cleary College|Cleary College]] (Ann Arbor, MI) where he earned a BA in Journalism and a BS in Marketing. Scott has had a varied career path having worked fast food, picking fruit, shoveling horse manure, a sports reporter, director of marketing for a software company, software startup founder, marketing consultant, guitar salesman, bum in a rock band, and social media strategist before turning in his corporate ID to write fiction full time.<br />
<br />
===Use of Technology===<br />
''[[EarthCore]]'' was originally published in 2001 by iPublish, an AOL/Time Warner imprint. With the novel doing well as a promotional [[Wikipedia:ebook|ebook]], Time Warner was planning on publishing the novel. With the economic slump following [[Wikipedia:September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks|September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks]], Time Warner did away with the imprint in 2004, Scott decided to start podcasting his novel in March, 2005 as ''the worlds first podcast only novel'' to build hype and garner an audience for his work. Sigler considered it a "no brainer" to offer the book as a free audio download. Having searched for podcast novel's and finding none, Sigler decided to be the first. A shameless self-promoter and worker of viral marketing, Sigler was able to get ''[[EarthCore]]'' offered as a paid download on [[Wikipedia:iTunes|iTunes]] in 2006. <br />
<br />
After ''[[EarthCore|EarthCore's]]'' success (''[[EarthCore]]'' had over 10,000 subscribers), Sigler released ''[[Ancestor]]'', ''[[Infection]]'', ''[[The Rookie]]'', ''[[Nocturnal]]'', and the ''Bloodcast'' series of short stories via podcast. Currently he is producing his next series, ''[[The Crypt]]''.<br />
<br />
Pushing boundaries, Sigler released an Adobe PDF version of ''[[Ancestor]]'' on Monday 19th March 2007 through Sigler's own podcast as well as others. ''[[Ancestor]]'' was released on April 1, 2007 to much internet hype and, despite having been released two weeks earlier as a free ebook, reached #7 on [[Wikipedia:Amazon.com|Amazon.com]]'s best-seller list and #1 on Sci-Fi, Horror and Genre-Fiction on the day of release.<br />
<br />
Sigler is leveraging [[Wikipedia:new media|new media]] to keep in-touch with his fans, regularly talking with them using [[Wikipedia:social networking|social networking]] sites, via email, and IM.<br />
<br />
Scott Sigler was featured in a New York Times article<ref>http://www.nytimes.com/2007/03/01/books/01podb.html</ref> on March 1, 2007 by Andrew Adam Newman. It was covering authors using podcasting innovations to garner a broader audience.<br />

==Influences==<br />
===[[Wikipedia:Stephen King|Stephen King]]===<br />
Sigler calls King a ''master craftsman'', who writes from the "regular guy" strata from which he hails. "His older stuff had no pretense, no "higher message," no “I’m extremely important” attitude, just rock-solid storytelling and character development. He also would whack any character at any time, and that’s what hooked you in – when characters got into trouble, you didn’t know if they’d live, unlike 99% of the books out there that are trying to develop franchise characters."<br />
<br />
===[[Wikipedia:Jack London|Jack London]]===<br />
According to Sigler, "[[Wikipedia:The Sea Wolf|The Sea Wolf]] totally changed my views on life".<br />
<br />
===[[:Wikipedia:King_Kong_(1976_film)|King Kong]]===<br />
Sigler saw King Kong (1976 version) when he was a little kid. He said it, "Scared the crap out of me. I hid behind my dad’s shoulder and begged to leave the theatre. As soon as we were out, I asked when we could see it again – that was the moment I knew I wanted to tell monster stories. I wanted to have that same impact on other people."<br />

==Trivia== <br />
* On episodes released the week of [[Wikipedia:J|June 5th]] [[Wikipedia:2006|2006]], Sigler and fellow podcast novelist [[Wikipedia:J. C. Hutchins|J. C. Hutchins]] announced a contest called "[http://jchutchins.net/7Son/SHARE%20THE%20PAIN.html Share The Pain]" in which listeners are to identify the six instances in which the storyline of Sigler's ''Infection'' podcast novel collide with that of Hutchins' ''[[Wikipedia:7th Son (Podiobook)|7th Son]]''. The contest was run by Sigler, Hutchins and [[Wikipedia:Podcast Pickle|Podcast Pickle]].<br />
* Scott Sigler has made mention of another Scott Sigler, who performs as a clown and has apparently been mistaken for Scott the author. Strangely or suspiciously, the "other" Scott Sigler's clown name is Mookie, the same as Scott's dog.<br />
* In the premiere episode ''[[Sacred Cow]]'' on Stranger Things, Sigler played the voice of Bishop Kirland's personal assistant and can be seen with a large pair of steel scissors.<br />

'''Scott Carl Sigler''' <!-- (born [[November 30]]) --> is a contemporary [[Wikipedia:American literature|American author]] of [[Wikipedia:science fiction|science fiction]] and [[Wikipedia:Horror fiction|horror]] as well as an avid [[Wikipedia:podcaster|podcaster]]. Originally from [[Wikipedia:Michigan|Michigan]] he now resides in [[Wikipedia:San Diego, California|San Diego, California]].<br />
{{TOCleft}}<br />
==Life==<br />
Raised in [[Wikipedia:Cheboygan, Michigan|Cheboygan, Michigan]] Sigler's father passed his love of classic monster movies along to his son. His mother, a school teacher, encouraged his reading offering him any book he wanted. Sigler wrote his first monster story, "Tentacles", at the age of eight.<br />
<br />
Sigler didn't travel far for college having attended [[Wikipedia:Olivet College|Olivet College]] (Olivet, MI) and [[Wikipedia:Cleary College|Cleary College]] (Ann Arbor, MI) where he earned a BA in Journalism and a BS in Marketing. Scott has had a varied career path having worked fast food, picking fruit, shoveling horse manure, a sports reporter, director of marketing for a software company, software startup founder, marketing consultant, guitar salesman, bum in a rock band, and social media strategist before turning in his corporate ID to write fiction full time.<br />
<br />
===Use of Technology===<br />
''[[EarthCore]]'' was originally published in 2001 by iPublish, an AOL/Time Warner imprint. With the novel doing well as a promotional [[Wikipedia:ebook|ebook]], Time Warner was planning on publishing the novel. With the economic slump following [[Wikipedia:September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks|September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks]], Time Warner did away with the imprint in 2004, Scott decided to start podcasting his novel in March, 2005 as ''the worlds first podcast only novel'' to build hype and garner an audience for his work. Sigler considered it a "no brainer" to offer the book as a free audio download. Having searched for podcast novel's and finding none, Sigler decided to be the first. A shameless self-promoter and worker of viral marketing, Sigler was able to get ''[[EarthCore]]'' offered as a paid download on [[Wikipedia:iTunes|iTunes]] in 2006. <br />
<br />
After ''[[EarthCore|EarthCore's]]'' success (''[[EarthCore]]'' had over 10,000 subscribers), Sigler released ''[[Ancestor]]'', ''[[Infection]]'', ''[[The Rookie]]'', ''[[Nocturnal]]'', and the ''Bloodcast'' series of short stories via podcast. Currently he is producing his next series, ''[[The Crypt]]''.<br />
<br />
Pushing boundaries, Sigler released an Adobe PDF version of ''[[Ancestor]]'' on Monday 19th March 2007 through Sigler's own podcast as well as others. ''[[Ancestor]]'' was released on April 1, 2007 to much internet hype and, despite having been released two weeks earlier as a free ebook, reached #7 on [[Wikipedia:Amazon.com|Amazon.com]]'s best-seller list and #1 on Sci-Fi, Horror and Genre-Fiction on the day of release.<br />
<br />
Sigler is leveraging [[Wikipedia:new media|new media]] to keep in-touch with his fans, regularly talking with them using [[Wikipedia:social networking|social networking]] sites, via email, and IM.<br />
<br />
Scott Sigler was featured in a New York Times article<ref>http://www.nytimes.com/2007/03/01/books/01podb.html</ref> on March 1, 2007 by Andrew Adam Newman. It was covering authors using podcasting innovations to garner a broader audience.<br />

==Influences==<br />
===[[Wikipedia:Stephen King|Stephen King]]===<br />
Sigler calls King a ''master craftsman'', who writes from the "regular guy" strata from which he hails. "His older stuff had no pretense, no "higher message," no “I’m extremely important” attitude, just rock-solid storytelling and character development. He also would whack any character at any time, and that’s what hooked you in – when characters got into trouble, you didn’t know if they’d live, unlike 99% of the books out there that are trying to develop franchise characters."<br />
<br />
===[[Wikipedia:Jack London|Jack London]]===<br />
According to Sigler, "[[Wikipedia:The Sea Wolf|The Sea Wolf]] totally changed my views on life".<br />
<br />
===[[:Wikipedia:King_Kong_(1976_film)|King Kong]]===<br />
Sigler saw King Kong (1976 version) when he was a little kid. He said it, "Scared the crap out of me. I hid behind my dad’s shoulder and begged to leave the theatre. As soon as we were out, I asked when we could see it again – that was the moment I knew I wanted to tell monster stories. I wanted to have that same impact on other people."<br />

===Future Stories===<br />
----<br />

The podcast sequel to ''[[Earthcore]]'' follows a heavily-armed team led by the surviving [[Patrick O'Doyle]] as they head off to the other known [[Rocktopi]] site at Mt. Fitzroy, Argentina. While no official release date has been announced, the author stated it would be out approximately one year from the date of the 2006 Expo, which will now be pushed back due to other book releases.<br />
<br />
* [[The Gangster]] (''Galactic Football League Series Book 6'')<ref>[https://www.facebook.com/groups/SiglerJunkies/permalink/1060556660769565/ book name announced at Dragon*Con 2018]</ref><br />
<br />
*''Galactic Football League Series Book 7''<br />
<br />
*''Galactic Football League Series Book 8''<br />
<br />
*''[[The Killer]]'' Galactic Football League Series, Novella VI, by Scott Sigler & [[J.C. Hutchins]]. Last planned novella for the GFL series.<br />
<br />
*''[[Nocturnal]]'', release of a reworked story line from the originally podcasted novel.<br />
<br />
*[[Alien: Phalanx]], a novel in the Alien universe. Expected from Titan Publishing in Spring of 2020<br />
<br />
==Trivia== <br />
* On episodes released the week of [[Wikipedia:J|June 5th]] [[Wikipedia:2006|2006]], Sigler and fellow podcast novelist [[Wikipedia:J. C. Hutchins|J. C. Hutchins]] announced a contest called "[http://jchutchins.net/7Son/SHARE%20THE%20PAIN.html Share The Pain]" in which listeners are to identify the six instances in which the storyline of Sigler's ''Infection'' podcast novel collide with that of Hutchins' ''[[Wikipedia:7th Son (Podiobook)|7th Son]]''. The contest was run by Sigler, Hutchins and [[Wikipedia:Podcast Pickle|Podcast Pickle]].<br />
* Scott Sigler has made mention of another Scott Sigler, who performs as a clown and has apparently been mistaken for Scott the author. Strangely or suspiciously, the "other" Scott Sigler's clown name is Mookie, the same as Scott's dog.<br />
* In the premiere episode ''[[Sacred Cow]]'' on Stranger Things, Sigler played the voice of Bishop Kirland's personal assistant and can be seen with a large pair of steel scissors.<br />

<br />
'''Scott Carl Sigler''' <!-- (born [[November 30]]) --> is a contemporary [[Wikipedia:American literature|American author]] of [[Wikipedia:science fiction|science fiction]] and [[Wikipedia:Horror fiction|horror]] as well as an avid [[Wikipedia:podcaster|podcaster]]. Originally from [[Wikipedia:Michigan|Michigan]] he now resides in [[Wikipedia:San Diego, California|San Diego, California]].<br />
{{TOCleft}}<br />
==Life==<br />
Raised in [[Wikipedia:Cheboygan, Michigan|Cheboygan, Michigan]] Sigler's father passed his love of classic monster movies along to his son. His mother, a school teacher, encouraged his reading offering him any book he wanted. Sigler wrote his first monster story, "Tentacles", at the age of eight.<br />
<br />
Sigler didn't travel far for college having attended [[Wikipedia:Olivet College|Olivet College]] (Olivet, MI) and [[Wikipedia:Cleary College|Cleary College]] (Ann Arbor, MI) where he earned a BA in Journalism and a BS in Marketing. Scott has had a varied career path having worked fast food, picking fruit, shoveling horse manure, a sports reporter, director of marketing for a software company, software startup founder, marketing consultant, guitar salesman, bum in a rock band, and social media strategist before turning in his corporate ID to write fiction full time.<br />
<br />
===Use of Technology===<br />
''[[EarthCore]]'' was originally published in 2001 by iPublish, an AOL/Time Warner imprint. With the novel doing well as a promotional [[Wikipedia:ebook|ebook]], Time Warner was planning on publishing the novel. With the economic slump following [[Wikipedia:September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks|September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks]], Time Warner did away with the imprint in 2004, Scott decided to start podcasting his novel in March, 2005 as ''the worlds first podcast only novel'' to build hype and garner an audience for his work. Sigler considered it a "no brainer" to offer the book as a free audio download. Having searched for podcast novel's and finding none, Sigler decided to be the first. A shameless self-promoter and worker of viral marketing, Sigler was able to get ''[[EarthCore]]'' offered as a paid download on [[Wikipedia:iTunes|iTunes]] in 2006. <br />
<br />
After ''[[EarthCore|EarthCore's]]'' success (''[[EarthCore]]'' had over 10,000 subscribers), Sigler released ''[[Ancestor]]'', ''[[Infection]]'', ''[[The Rookie]]'', ''[[Nocturnal]]'', and the ''Bloodcast'' series of short stories via podcast. Currently he is producing his next series, ''[[The Crypt]]''.<br />
<br />
Pushing boundaries, Sigler released an Adobe PDF version of ''[[Ancestor]]'' on Monday 19th March 2007 through Sigler's own podcast as well as others. ''[[Ancestor]]'' was released on April 1, 2007 to much internet hype and, despite having been released two weeks earlier as a free ebook, reached #7 on [[Wikipedia:Amazon.com|Amazon.com]]'s best-seller list and #1 on Sci-Fi, Horror and Genre-Fiction on the day of release.<br />
<br />
Sigler is leveraging [[Wikipedia:new media|new media]] to keep in-touch with his fans, regularly talking with them using [[Wikipedia:social networking|social networking]] sites, via email, and IM.<br />
<br />
Scott Sigler was featured in a New York Times article<ref>http://www.nytimes.com/2007/03/01/books/01podb.html</ref> on March 1, 2007 by Andrew Adam Newman. It was covering authors using podcasting innovations to garner a broader audience.<br />

<br />
==Influences==<br />
===[[Wikipedia:Stephen King|Stephen King]]===<br />
Sigler calls King a ''master craftsman'', who writes from the "regular guy" strata from which he hails. "His older stuff had no pretense, no "higher message," no “I’m extremely important” attitude, just rock-solid storytelling and character development. He also would whack any character at any time, and that’s what hooked you in – when characters got into trouble, you didn’t know if they’d live, unlike 99% of the books out there that are trying to develop franchise characters."<br />
<br />
===[[Wikipedia:Jack London|Jack London]]===<br />
According to Sigler, "[[Wikipedia:The Sea Wolf|The Sea Wolf]] totally changed my views on life".<br />
<br />
===[[:Wikipedia:King_Kong_(1976_film)|King Kong]]===<br />
Sigler saw King Kong (1976 version) when he was a little kid. He said it, "Scared the crap out of me. I hid behind my dad’s shoulder and begged to leave the theatre. As soon as we were out, I asked when we could see it again – that was the moment I knew I wanted to tell monster stories. I wanted to have that same impact on other people."<br />
<br />

While no official release date has been announced, the author stated it would be out approximately one year from the date of the 2006 Expo, which will now be pushed back due to other book releases.<br />
<br />

==Trivia== <br />
* On episodes released the week of [[Wikipedia:J|June 5th]] [[Wikipedia:2006|2006]], Sigler and fellow podcast novelist [[Wikipedia:J. C. Hutchins|J. C. Hutchins]] announced a contest called "[http://jchutchins.net/7Son/SHARE%20THE%20PAIN.html Share The Pain]" in which listeners are to identify the six instances in which the storyline of Sigler's ''Infection'' podcast novel collide with that of Hutchins' ''[[Wikipedia:7th Son (Podiobook)|7th Son]]''. The contest was run by Sigler, Hutchins and [[Wikipedia:Podcast Pickle|Podcast Pickle]].<br />
* Scott Sigler has made mention of another Scott Sigler, who performs as a clown and has apparently been mistaken for Scott the author. Strangely or suspiciously, the "other" Scott Sigler's clown name is Mookie, the same as Scott's dog.<br />
* In the premiere episode ''[[Sacred Cow]]'' on Stranger Things, Sigler played the voice of Bishop Kirland's personal assistant and can be seen with a large pair of steel scissors.<br />

<br />
'''Scott Carl Sigler''' <!-- (born [[November 30]]) --> is a contemporary [[Wikipedia:American literature|American author]] of [[Wikipedia:science fiction|science fiction]] and [[Wikipedia:Horror fiction|horror]] as well as an avid [[Wikipedia:podcaster|podcaster]]. Originally from [[Wikipedia:Michigan|Michigan]] he now resides in [[Wikipedia:San Diego, California|San Diego, California]].<br />
{{TOCleft}}<br />
==Life==<br />
Raised in [[Wikipedia:Cheboygan, Michigan|Cheboygan, Michigan]] Sigler's father passed his love of classic monster movies along to his son. His mother, a school teacher, encouraged his reading offering him any book he wanted. Sigler wrote his first monster story, "Tentacles", at the age of eight.<br />
<br />
Sigler didn't travel far for college having attended [[Wikipedia:Olivet College|Olivet College]] (Olivet, MI) and [[Wikipedia:Cleary College|Cleary College]] (Ann Arbor, MI) where he earned a BA in Journalism and a BS in Marketing. Scott has had a varied career path having worked fast food, picking fruit, shoveling horse manure, a sports reporter, director of marketing for a software company, software startup founder, marketing consultant, guitar salesman, bum in a rock band, and social media strategist before turning in his corporate ID to write fiction full time.<br />
<br />
===Use of Technology===<br />
''[[EarthCore]]'' was originally published in 2001 by iPublish, an AOL/Time Warner imprint. With the novel doing well as a promotional [[Wikipedia:ebook|ebook]], Time Warner was planning on publishing the novel. With the economic slump following [[Wikipedia:September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks|September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks]], Time Warner did away with the imprint in 2004, Scott decided to start podcasting his novel in March, 2005 as ''the worlds first podcast only novel'' to build hype and garner an audience for his work. Sigler considered it a "no brainer" to offer the book as a free audio download. Having searched for podcast novel's and finding none, Sigler decided to be the first. A shameless self-promoter and worker of viral marketing, Sigler was able to get ''[[EarthCore]]'' offered as a paid download on [[Wikipedia:iTunes|iTunes]] in 2006. <br />
<br />
After ''[[EarthCore|EarthCore's]]'' success (''[[EarthCore]]'' had over 10,000 subscribers), Sigler released ''[[Ancestor]]'', ''[[Infection]]'', ''[[The Rookie]]'', ''[[Nocturnal]]'', and the ''Bloodcast'' series of short stories via podcast. Currently he is producing his next series, ''[[The Crypt]]''.<br />
<br />
Pushing boundaries, Sigler released an Adobe PDF version of ''[[Ancestor]]'' on Monday 19th March 2007 through Sigler's own podcast as well as others. ''[[Ancestor]]'' was released on April 1, 2007 to much internet hype and, despite having been released two weeks earlier as a free ebook, reached #7 on [[Wikipedia:Amazon.com|Amazon.com]]'s best-seller list and #1 on Sci-Fi, Horror and Genre-Fiction on the day of release.<br />
<br />
Sigler is leveraging [[Wikipedia:new media|new media]] to keep in-touch with his fans, regularly talking with them using [[Wikipedia:social networking|social networking]] sites, via email, and IM.<br />
<br />
Scott Sigler was featured in a New York Times article<ref>http://www.nytimes.com/2007/03/01/books/01podb.html</ref> on March 1, 2007 by Andrew Adam Newman. It was covering authors using podcasting innovations to garner a broader audience.<br />

<br />
==Influences==<br />
===[[Wikipedia:Stephen King|Stephen King]]===<br />
Sigler calls King a ''master craftsman'', who writes from the "regular guy" strata from which he hails. "His older stuff had no pretense, no "higher message," no “I’m extremely important” attitude, just rock-solid storytelling and character development. He also would whack any character at any time, and that’s what hooked you in – when characters got into trouble, you didn’t know if they’d live, unlike 99% of the books out there that are trying to develop franchise characters."<br />
<br />
===[[Wikipedia:Jack London|Jack London]]===<br />
According to Sigler, "[[Wikipedia:The Sea Wolf|The Sea Wolf]] totally changed my views on life".<br />
<br />
===[[:Wikipedia:King_Kong_(1976_film)|King Kong]]===<br />
Sigler saw King Kong (1976 version) when he was a little kid. He said it, "Scared the crap out of me. I hid behind my dad’s shoulder and begged to leave the theatre. As soon as we were out, I asked when we could see it again – that was the moment I knew I wanted to tell monster stories. I wanted to have that same impact on other people."<br />
<br />

While no official release date has been announced, the author stated it would be out approximately one year from the date of the 2006 Expo, which will now be pushed back due to other book releases.<br />
<br />

<br />

==Trivia== <br />
* On episodes released the week of [[Wikipedia:J|June 5th]] [[Wikipedia:2006|2006]], Sigler and fellow podcast novelist [[Wikipedia:J. C. Hutchins|J. C. Hutchins]] announced a contest called "[http://jchutchins.net/7Son/SHARE%20THE%20PAIN.html Share The Pain]" in which listeners are to identify the six instances in which the storyline of Sigler's ''Infection'' podcast novel collide with that of Hutchins' ''[[Wikipedia:7th Son (Podiobook)|7th Son]]''. The contest was run by Sigler, Hutchins and [[Wikipedia:Podcast Pickle|Podcast Pickle]].<br />
* Scott Sigler has made mention of another Scott Sigler, who performs as a clown and has apparently been mistaken for Scott the author. Strangely or suspiciously, the "other" Scott Sigler's clown name is Mookie, the same as Scott's dog.<br />
* In the premiere episode ''[[Sacred Cow]]'' on Stranger Things, Sigler played the voice of Bishop Kirland's personal assistant and can be seen with a large pair of steel scissors.<br />

<br />
'''Scott Carl Sigler''' <!-- (born [[November 30]]) --> is a contemporary [[Wikipedia:American literature|American author]] of [[Wikipedia:science fiction|science fiction]] and [[Wikipedia:Horror fiction|horror]] as well as an avid [[Wikipedia:podcaster|podcaster]]. Originally from [[Wikipedia:Michigan|Michigan]] he now resides in [[Wikipedia:San Diego, California|San Diego, California]].<br />
{{TOCleft}}<br />
==Life==<br />
Raised in [[Wikipedia:Cheboygan, Michigan|Cheboygan, Michigan]] Sigler's father passed his love of classic monster movies along to his son. His mother, a school teacher, encouraged his reading offering him any book he wanted. Sigler wrote his first monster story, "Tentacles", at the age of eight.<br />
<br />
Sigler didn't travel far for college having attended [[Wikipedia:Olivet College|Olivet College]] (Olivet, MI) and [[Wikipedia:Cleary College|Cleary College]] (Ann Arbor, MI) where he earned a BA in Journalism and a BS in Marketing. Scott has had a varied career path having worked fast food, picking fruit, shoveling horse manure, a sports reporter, director of marketing for a software company, software startup founder, marketing consultant, guitar salesman, bum in a rock band, and social media strategist before turning in his corporate ID to write fiction full time.<br />
<br />
===Use of Technology===<br />
''[[EarthCore]]'' was originally published in 2001 by iPublish, an AOL/Time Warner imprint. With the novel doing well as a promotional [[Wikipedia:ebook|ebook]], Time Warner was planning on publishing the novel. With the economic slump following [[Wikipedia:September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks|September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks]], Time Warner did away with the imprint in 2004, Scott decided to start podcasting his novel in March, 2005 as ''the worlds first podcast only novel'' to build hype and garner an audience for his work. Sigler considered it a "no brainer" to offer the book as a free audio download. Having searched for podcast novel's and finding none, Sigler decided to be the first. A shameless self-promoter and worker of viral marketing, Sigler was able to get ''[[EarthCore]]'' offered as a paid download on [[Wikipedia:iTunes|iTunes]] in 2006. <br />
<br />
After ''[[EarthCore|EarthCore's]]'' success (''[[EarthCore]]'' had over 10,000 subscribers), Sigler released ''[[Ancestor]]'', ''[[Infection]]'', ''[[The Rookie]]'', ''[[Nocturnal]]'', and the ''Bloodcast'' series of short stories via podcast. Currently he is producing his next series, ''[[The Crypt]]''.<br />
<br />
Pushing boundaries, Sigler released an Adobe PDF version of ''[[Ancestor]]'' on Monday 19th March 2007 through Sigler's own podcast as well as others. ''[[Ancestor]]'' was released on April 1, 2007 to much internet hype and, despite having been released two weeks earlier as a free ebook, reached #7 on [[Wikipedia:Amazon.com|Amazon.com]]'s best-seller list and #1 on Sci-Fi, Horror and Genre-Fiction on the day of release.<br />
<br />
Sigler is leveraging [[Wikipedia:new media|new media]] to keep in-touch with his fans, regularly talking with them using [[Wikipedia:social networking|social networking]] sites, via email, and IM.<br />
<br />
Scott Sigler was featured in a New York Times article<ref>http://www.nytimes.com/2007/03/01/books/01podb.html</ref> on March 1, 2007 by Andrew Adam Newman. It was covering authors using podcasting innovations to garner a broader audience.<br />

==Influences==<br />
===[[Wikipedia:Stephen King|Stephen King]]===<br />
Sigler calls King a ''master craftsman'', who writes from the "regular guy" strata from which he hails. "His older stuff had no pretense, no "higher message," no “I’m extremely important” attitude, just rock-solid storytelling and character development. He also would whack any character at any time, and that’s what hooked you in – when characters got into trouble, you didn’t know if they’d live, unlike 99% of the books out there that are trying to develop franchise characters."<br />
<br />
===[[Wikipedia:Jack London|Jack London]]===<br />
According to Sigler, "[[Wikipedia:The Sea Wolf|The Sea Wolf]] totally changed my views on life".<br />
<br />
===[[:Wikipedia:King_Kong_(1976_film)|King Kong]]===<br />
Sigler saw King Kong (1976 version) when he was a little kid. He said it, "Scared the crap out of me. I hid behind my dad’s shoulder and begged to leave the theatre. As soon as we were out, I asked when we could see it again – that was the moment I knew I wanted to tell monster stories. I wanted to have that same impact on other people."<br />

==Trivia== <br />
* On episodes released the week of [[Wikipedia:J|June 5th]] [[Wikipedia:2006|2006]], Sigler and fellow podcast novelist [[Wikipedia:J. C. Hutchins|J. C. Hutchins]] announced a contest called "[http://jchutchins.net/7Son/SHARE%20THE%20PAIN.html Share The Pain]" in which listeners are to identify the six instances in which the storyline of Sigler's ''Infection'' podcast novel collide with that of Hutchins' ''[[Wikipedia:7th Son (Podiobook)|7th Son]]''. The contest was run by Sigler, Hutchins and [[Wikipedia:Podcast Pickle|Podcast Pickle]].<br />
* Scott Sigler has made mention of another Scott Sigler, who performs as a clown and has apparently been mistaken for Scott the author. Strangely or suspiciously, the "other" Scott Sigler's clown name is Mookie, the same as Scott's dog.<br />
* In the premiere episode ''[[Sacred Cow]]'' on Stranger Things, Sigler played the voice of Bishop Kirland's personal assistant and can be seen with a large pair of steel scissors.<br />

'''Scott Carl Sigler''' <!-- (born [[November 30]]) --> is a contemporary [[Wikipedia:American literature|American author]] of [[Wikipedia:science fiction|science fiction]] and [[Wikipedia:Horror fiction|horror]] as well as an avid [[Wikipedia:podcaster|podcaster]]. Originally from [[Wikipedia:Michigan|Michigan]] he now resides in [[Wikipedia:San Diego, California|San Diego, California]].<br />
{{TOCleft}}<br />
==Life==<br />
Raised in [[Wikipedia:Cheboygan, Michigan|Cheboygan, Michigan]] Sigler's father passed his love of classic monster movies along to his son. His mother, a school teacher, encouraged his reading offering him any book he wanted. Sigler wrote his first monster story, "Tentacles", at the age of eight.<br />
<br />
Sigler didn't travel far for college having attended [[Wikipedia:Olivet College|Olivet College]] (Olivet, MI) and [[Wikipedia:Cleary College|Cleary College]] (Ann Arbor, MI) where he earned a BA in Journalism and a BS in Marketing. Scott has had a varied career path having worked fast food, picking fruit, shoveling horse manure, a sports reporter, director of marketing for a software company, software startup founder, marketing consultant, guitar salesman, bum in a rock band, and social media strategist before turning in his corporate ID to write fiction full time.<br />
<br />
===Use of Technology===<br />
''[[EarthCore]]'' was originally published in 2001 by iPublish, an AOL/Time Warner imprint. With the novel doing well as a promotional [[Wikipedia:ebook|ebook]], Time Warner was planning on publishing the novel. With the economic slump following [[Wikipedia:September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks|September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks]], Time Warner did away with the imprint in 2004, Scott decided to start podcasting his novel in March, 2005 as ''the worlds first podcast only novel'' to build hype and garner an audience for his work. Sigler considered it a "no brainer" to offer the book as a free audio download. Having searched for podcast novel's and finding none, Sigler decided to be the first. A shameless self-promoter and worker of viral marketing, Sigler was able to get ''[[EarthCore]]'' offered as a paid download on [[Wikipedia:iTunes|iTunes]] in 2006. <br />
<br />
After ''[[EarthCore|EarthCore's]]'' success (''[[EarthCore]]'' had over 10,000 subscribers), Sigler released ''[[Ancestor]]'', ''[[Infection]]'', ''[[The Rookie]]'', ''[[Nocturnal]]'', and the ''Bloodcast'' series of short stories via podcast. Currently he is producing his next series, ''[[The Crypt]]''.<br />
<br />
Pushing boundaries, Sigler released an Adobe PDF version of ''[[Ancestor]]'' on Monday 19th March 2007 through Sigler's own podcast as well as others. ''[[Ancestor]]'' was released on April 1, 2007 to much internet hype and, despite having been released two weeks earlier as a free ebook, reached #7 on [[Wikipedia:Amazon.com|Amazon.com]]'s best-seller list and #1 on Sci-Fi, Horror and Genre-Fiction on the day of release.<br />
<br />
Sigler is leveraging [[Wikipedia:new media|new media]] to keep in-touch with his fans, regularly talking with them using [[Wikipedia:social networking|social networking]] sites, via email, and IM.<br />
<br />
Scott Sigler was featured in a New York Times article<ref>http://www.nytimes.com/2007/03/01/books/01podb.html</ref> on March 1, 2007 by Andrew Adam Newman. It was covering authors using podcasting innovations to garner a broader audience.<br />

<br />
==Influences==<br />
===[[Wikipedia:Stephen King|Stephen King]]===<br />
Sigler calls King a ''master craftsman'', who writes from the "regular guy" strata from which he hails. "His older stuff had no pretense, no "higher message," no “I’m extremely important” attitude, just rock-solid storytelling and character development. He also would whack any character at any time, and that’s what hooked you in – when characters got into trouble, you didn’t know if they’d live, unlike 99% of the books out there that are trying to develop franchise characters."<br />
<br />
===[[Wikipedia:Jack London|Jack London]]===<br />
According to Sigler, "[[Wikipedia:The Sea Wolf|The Sea Wolf]] totally changed my views on life".<br />
<br />
===[[:Wikipedia:King_Kong_(1976_film)|King Kong]]===<br />
Sigler saw King Kong (1976 version) when he was a little kid. He said it, "Scared the crap out of me. I hid behind my dad’s shoulder and begged to leave the theatre. As soon as we were out, I asked when we could see it again – that was the moment I knew I wanted to tell monster stories. I wanted to have that same impact on other people."<br />

===Future Stories===<br />
----<br />
*''[[Earthcore II: Mt. Fitzroy|Earthcore II: Mount Fitz Roy]]'' was officially announced at the September 2006 Portable Media Expo (now renamed "The Podcast & New Media Expo") in Ontario, California. The podcast sequel to ''[[Earthcore]]'' follows a heavily-armed team led by the surviving [[Patrick O'Doyle]] as they head off to the other known [[Rocktopi]] site at Mt. Fitzroy, Argentina. While no official release date has been announced, the author stated it would be out approximately one year from the date of the 2006 Expo, which will now be pushed back due to other book releases.<br />
<br />
* [[The Gangster]] (''Galactic Football League Series Book 6'')<ref>[https://www.facebook.com/groups/SiglerJunkies/permalink/1060556660769565/ book name announced at Dragon*Con 2018]</ref><br />
<br />
*''Galactic Football League Series Book 7''<br />
<br />
*''Galactic Football League Series Book 8''<br />
<br />
*''[[The Killer]]'' Galactic Football League Series, Novella VI, by Scott Sigler & [[J.C. Hutchins]]. Last planned novella for the GFL series.<br />
<br />
*''[[Nocturnal]]'', release of a reworked story line from the originally podcasted novel.<br />
<br />
*[[Alien: Phalanx]], a novel in the Alien universe. Expected from Titan Publishing in Spring of 2020<br />
<br />
==Trivia== <br />
* On episodes released the week of [[Wikipedia:J|June 5th]] [[Wikipedia:2006|2006]], Sigler and fellow podcast novelist [[Wikipedia:J. C. Hutchins|J. C. Hutchins]] announced a contest called "[http://jchutchins.net/7Son/SHARE%20THE%20PAIN.html Share The Pain]" in which listeners are to identify the six instances in which the storyline of Sigler's ''Infection'' podcast novel collide with that of Hutchins' ''[[Wikipedia:7th Son (Podiobook)|7th Son]]''. The contest was run by Sigler, Hutchins and [[Wikipedia:Podcast Pickle|Podcast Pickle]].<br />
* Scott Sigler has made mention of another Scott Sigler, who performs as a clown and has apparently been mistaken for Scott the author. Strangely or suspiciously, the "other" Scott Sigler's clown name is Mookie, the same as Scott's dog.<br />
* In the premiere episode ''[[Sacred Cow]]'' on Stranger Things, Sigler played the voice of Bishop Kirland's personal assistant and can be seen with a large pair of steel scissors.<br />

<br />
'''Scott Carl Sigler''' <!-- (born [[November 30]]) --> is a contemporary [[Wikipedia:American literature|American author]] of [[Wikipedia:science fiction|science fiction]] and [[Wikipedia:Horror fiction|horror]] as well as an avid [[Wikipedia:podcaster|podcaster]]. Originally from [[Wikipedia:Michigan|Michigan]] he now resides in [[Wikipedia:San Diego, California|San Diego, California]].<br />
{{TOCleft}}<br />
==Life==<br />
Raised in [[Wikipedia:Cheboygan, Michigan|Cheboygan, Michigan]] Sigler's father passed his love of classic monster movies along to his son. His mother, a school teacher, encouraged his reading offering him any book he wanted. Sigler wrote his first monster story, "Tentacles", at the age of eight.<br />
<br />
Sigler didn't travel far for college having attended [[Wikipedia:Olivet College|Olivet College]] (Olivet, MI) and [[Wikipedia:Cleary College|Cleary College]] (Ann Arbor, MI) where he earned a BA in Journalism and a BS in Marketing. Scott has had a varied career path having worked fast food, picking fruit, shoveling horse manure, a sports reporter, director of marketing for a software company, software startup founder, marketing consultant, guitar salesman, bum in a rock band, and social media strategist before turning in his corporate ID to write fiction full time.<br />
<br />
===Use of Technology===<br />
''[[EarthCore]]'' was originally published in 2001 by iPublish, an AOL/Time Warner imprint. With the novel doing well as a promotional [[Wikipedia:ebook|ebook]], Time Warner was planning on publishing the novel. With the economic slump following [[Wikipedia:September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks|September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks]], Time Warner did away with the imprint in 2004, Scott decided to start podcasting his novel in March, 2005 as ''the worlds first podcast only novel'' to build hype and garner an audience for his work. Sigler considered it a "no brainer" to offer the book as a free audio download. Having searched for podcast novel's and finding none, Sigler decided to be the first. A shameless self-promoter and worker of viral marketing, Sigler was able to get ''[[EarthCore]]'' offered as a paid download on [[Wikipedia:iTunes|iTunes]] in 2006. <br />
<br />
After ''[[EarthCore|EarthCore's]]'' success (''[[EarthCore]]'' had over 10,000 subscribers), Sigler released ''[[Ancestor]]'', ''[[Infection]]'', ''[[The Rookie]]'', ''[[Nocturnal]]'', and the ''Bloodcast'' series of short stories via podcast. Currently he is producing his next series, ''[[The Crypt]]''.<br />
<br />
Pushing boundaries, Sigler released an Adobe PDF version of ''[[Ancestor]]'' on Monday 19th March 2007 through Sigler's own podcast as well as others. ''[[Ancestor]]'' was released on April 1, 2007 to much internet hype and, despite having been released two weeks earlier as a free ebook, reached #7 on [[Wikipedia:Amazon.com|Amazon.com]]'s best-seller list and #1 on Sci-Fi, Horror and Genre-Fiction on the day of release.<br />
<br />
Sigler is leveraging [[Wikipedia:new media|new media]] to keep in-touch with his fans, regularly talking with them using [[Wikipedia:social networking|social networking]] sites, via email, and IM.<br />
<br />
Scott Sigler was featured in a New York Times article<ref>http://www.nytimes.com/2007/03/01/books/01podb.html</ref> on March 1, 2007 by Andrew Adam Newman. It was covering authors using podcasting innovations to garner a broader audience.<br />

<br />
==Influences==<br />
===[[Wikipedia:Stephen King|Stephen King]]===<br />
Sigler calls King a ''master craftsman'', who writes from the "regular guy" strata from which he hails. "His older stuff had no pretense, no "higher message," no “I’m extremely important” attitude, just rock-solid storytelling and character development. He also would whack any character at any time, and that’s what hooked you in – when characters got into trouble, you didn’t know if they’d live, unlike 99% of the books out there that are trying to develop franchise characters."<br />
<br />
===[[Wikipedia:Jack London|Jack London]]===<br />
According to Sigler, "[[Wikipedia:The Sea Wolf|The Sea Wolf]] totally changed my views on life".<br />
<br />
===[[:Wikipedia:King_Kong_(1976_film)|King Kong]]===<br />
Sigler saw King Kong (1976 version) when he was a little kid. He said it, "Scared the crap out of me. I hid behind my dad’s shoulder and begged to leave the theatre. As soon as we were out, I asked when we could see it again – that was the moment I knew I wanted to tell monster stories. I wanted to have that same impact on other people."<br />

----<br />
*''[[Earthcore II: Mt. Fitzroy|Earthcore II: Mount Fitz Roy]]'' was officially announced at the September 2006 Portable Media Expo (now renamed "The Podcast & New Media Expo") in Ontario, California. The podcast sequel to ''[[Earthcore]]'' follows a heavily-armed team led by the surviving [[Patrick O'Doyle]] as they head off to the other known [[Rocktopi]] site at Mt. Fitzroy, Argentina. While no official release date has been announced, the author stated it would be out approximately one year from the date of the 2006 Expo, which will now be pushed back due to other book releases.<br />
<br />
* [[The Gangster]] (''Galactic Football League Series Book 6'')<ref>[https://www.facebook.com/groups/SiglerJunkies/permalink/1060556660769565/ book name announced at Dragon*Con 2018]</ref><br />
<br />
*''Galactic Football League Series Book 7''<br />
<br />
*''Galactic Football League Series Book 8''<br />
<br />
*''[[The Killer]]'' Galactic Football League Series, Novella VI, by Scott Sigler & [[J.C. Hutchins]]. Last planned novella for the GFL series.<br />
<br />
*''[[Nocturnal]]'', release of a reworked story line from the originally podcasted novel.<br />
<br />
==Trivia== <br />
* On episodes released the week of [[Wikipedia:J|June 5th]] [[Wikipedia:2006|2006]], Sigler and fellow podcast novelist [[Wikipedia:J. C. Hutchins|J. C. Hutchins]] announced a contest called "[http://jchutchins.net/7Son/SHARE%20THE%20PAIN.html Share The Pain]" in which listeners are to identify the six instances in which the storyline of Sigler's ''Infection'' podcast novel collide with that of Hutchins' ''[[Wikipedia:7th Son (Podiobook)|7th Son]]''. The contest was run by Sigler, Hutchins and [[Wikipedia:Podcast Pickle|Podcast Pickle]].<br />
* Scott Sigler has made mention of another Scott Sigler, who performs as a clown and has apparently been mistaken for Scott the author. Strangely or suspiciously, the "other" Scott Sigler's clown name is Mookie, the same as Scott's dog.<br />
* In the premiere episode ''[[Sacred Cow]]'' on Stranger Things, Sigler played the voice of Bishop Kirland's personal assistant and can be seen with a large pair of steel scissors.<br />

<br />
'''Scott Carl Sigler''' <!-- (born [[November 30]]) --> is a contemporary [[Wikipedia:American literature|American author]] of [[Wikipedia:science fiction|science fiction]] and [[Wikipedia:Horror fiction|horror]] as well as an avid [[Wikipedia:podcaster|podcaster]]. Originally from [[Wikipedia:Michigan|Michigan]] he now resides in [[Wikipedia:San Diego, California|San Diego, California]].<br />
{{TOCleft}}<br />
==Life==<br />
Raised in [[Wikipedia:Cheboygan, Michigan|Cheboygan, Michigan]] Sigler's father passed his love of classic monster movies along to his son. His mother, a school teacher, encouraged his reading offering him any book he wanted. Sigler wrote his first monster story, "Tentacles", at the age of eight.<br />
<br />
Sigler didn't travel far for college having attended [[Wikipedia:Olivet College|Olivet College]] (Olivet, MI) and [[Wikipedia:Cleary College|Cleary College]] (Ann Arbor, MI) where he earned a BA in Journalism and a BS in Marketing. Scott has had a varied career path having worked fast food, picking fruit, shoveling horse manure, a sports reporter, director of marketing for a software company, software startup founder, marketing consultant, guitar salesman, bum in a rock band, and social media strategist before turning in his corporate ID to write fiction full time.<br />
<br />
===Use of Technology===<br />
''[[EarthCore]]'' was originally published in 2001 by iPublish, an AOL/Time Warner imprint. With the novel doing well as a promotional [[Wikipedia:ebook|ebook]], Time Warner was planning on publishing the novel. With the economic slump following [[Wikipedia:September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks|September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks]], Time Warner did away with the imprint in 2004, Scott decided to start podcasting his novel in March, 2005 as ''the worlds first podcast only novel'' to build hype and garner an audience for his work. Sigler considered it a "no brainer" to offer the book as a free audio download. Having searched for podcast novel's and finding none, Sigler decided to be the first. A shameless self-promoter and worker of viral marketing, Sigler was able to get ''[[EarthCore]]'' offered as a paid download on [[Wikipedia:iTunes|iTunes]] in 2006. <br />
<br />
After ''[[EarthCore|EarthCore's]]'' success (''[[EarthCore]]'' had over 10,000 subscribers), Sigler released ''[[Ancestor]]'', ''[[Infection]]'', ''[[The Rookie]]'', ''[[Nocturnal]]'', and the ''Bloodcast'' series of short stories via podcast. Currently he is producing his next series, ''[[The Crypt]]''.<br />
<br />
Pushing boundaries, Sigler released an Adobe PDF version of ''[[Ancestor]]'' on Monday 19th March 2007 through Sigler's own podcast as well as others. ''[[Ancestor]]'' was released on April 1, 2007 to much internet hype and, despite having been released two weeks earlier as a free ebook, reached #7 on [[Wikipedia:Amazon.com|Amazon.com]]'s best-seller list and #1 on Sci-Fi, Horror and Genre-Fiction on the day of release.<br />
<br />
Sigler is leveraging [[Wikipedia:new media|new media]] to keep in-touch with his fans, regularly talking with them using [[Wikipedia:social networking|social networking]] sites, via email, and IM.<br />
<br />
Scott Sigler was featured in a New York Times article<ref>http://www.nytimes.com/2007/03/01/books/01podb.html</ref> on March 1, 2007 by Andrew Adam Newman. It was covering authors using podcasting innovations to garner a broader audience.<br />

<br />
==Influences==<br />
===[[Wikipedia:Stephen King|Stephen King]]===<br />
Sigler calls King a ''master craftsman'', who writes from the "regular guy" strata from which he hails. "His older stuff had no pretense, no "higher message," no “I’m extremely important” attitude, just rock-solid storytelling and character development. He also would whack any character at any time, and that’s what hooked you in – when characters got into trouble, you didn’t know if they’d live, unlike 99% of the books out there that are trying to develop franchise characters."<br />
<br />
===[[Wikipedia:Jack London|Jack London]]===<br />
According to Sigler, "[[Wikipedia:The Sea Wolf|The Sea Wolf]] totally changed my views on life".<br />
<br />
===[[:Wikipedia:King_Kong_(1976_film)|King Kong]]===<br />
Sigler saw King Kong (1976 version) when he was a little kid. He said it, "Scared the crap out of me. I hid behind my dad’s shoulder and begged to leave the theatre. As soon as we were out, I asked when we could see it again – that was the moment I knew I wanted to tell monster stories. I wanted to have that same impact on other people."<br />

The podcast sequel to ''[[Earthcore]]'' follows a heavily-armed team led by the surviving [[Patrick O'Doyle]] as they head off to the other known [[Rocktopi]] site at Mt. Fitzroy, Argentina.

<br />

*''[[Nocturnal]]'', release of a reworked story line from the originally podcasted novel.<br />
<br />
==Trivia== <br />
* On episodes released the week of [[Wikipedia:J|June 5th]] [[Wikipedia:2006|2006]], Sigler and fellow podcast novelist [[Wikipedia:J. C. Hutchins|J. C. Hutchins]] announced a contest called "[http://jchutchins.net/7Son/SHARE%20THE%20PAIN.html Share The Pain]" in which listeners are to identify the six instances in which the storyline of Sigler's ''Infection'' podcast novel collide with that of Hutchins' ''[[Wikipedia:7th Son (Podiobook)|7th Son]]''. The contest was run by Sigler, Hutchins and [[Wikipedia:Podcast Pickle|Podcast Pickle]].<br />
* Scott Sigler has made mention of another Scott Sigler, who performs as a clown and has apparently been mistaken for Scott the author. Strangely or suspiciously, the "other" Scott Sigler's clown name is Mookie, the same as Scott's dog.<br />
* In the premiere episode ''[[Sacred Cow]]'' on Stranger Things, Sigler played the voice of Bishop Kirland's personal assistant and can be seen with a large pair of steel scissors.<br />

<br />
'''Scott Carl Sigler''' <!-- (born [[November 30]]) --> is a contemporary [[Wikipedia:American literature|American author]] of [[Wikipedia:science fiction|science fiction]] and [[Wikipedia:Horror fiction|horror]] as well as an avid [[Wikipedia:podcaster|podcaster]]. Originally from [[Wikipedia:Michigan|Michigan]] he now resides in [[Wikipedia:San Diego, California|San Diego, California]].<br />
{{TOCleft}}<br />
==Life==<br />
Raised in [[Wikipedia:Cheboygan, Michigan|Cheboygan, Michigan]] Sigler's father passed his love of classic monster movies along to his son. His mother, a school teacher, encouraged his reading offering him any book he wanted. Sigler wrote his first monster story, "Tentacles", at the age of eight.<br />
<br />
Sigler didn't travel far for college having attended [[Wikipedia:Olivet College|Olivet College]] (Olivet, MI) and [[Wikipedia:Cleary College|Cleary College]] (Ann Arbor, MI) where he earned a BA in Journalism and a BS in Marketing. Scott has had a varied career path having worked fast food, picking fruit, shoveling horse manure, a sports reporter, director of marketing for a software company, software startup founder, marketing consultant, guitar salesman, bum in a rock band, and social media strategist before turning in his corporate ID to write fiction full time.<br />
<br />
===Use of Technology===<br />
''[[EarthCore]]'' was originally published in 2001 by iPublish, an AOL/Time Warner imprint. With the novel doing well as a promotional [[Wikipedia:ebook|ebook]], Time Warner was planning on publishing the novel. With the economic slump following [[Wikipedia:September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks|September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks]], Time Warner did away with the imprint in 2004, Scott decided to start podcasting his novel in March, 2005 as ''the worlds first podcast only novel'' to build hype and garner an audience for his work. Sigler considered it a "no brainer" to offer the book as a free audio download. Having searched for podcast novel's and finding none, Sigler decided to be the first. A shameless self-promoter and worker of viral marketing, Sigler was able to get ''[[EarthCore]]'' offered as a paid download on [[Wikipedia:iTunes|iTunes]] in 2006. <br />
<br />
After ''[[EarthCore|EarthCore's]]'' success (''[[EarthCore]]'' had over 10,000 subscribers), Sigler released ''[[Ancestor]]'', ''[[Infection]]'', ''[[The Rookie]]'', ''[[Nocturnal]]'', and the ''Bloodcast'' series of short stories via podcast. Currently he is producing his next series, ''[[The Crypt]]''.<br />
<br />
Pushing boundaries, Sigler released an Adobe PDF version of ''[[Ancestor]]'' on Monday 19th March 2007 through Sigler's own podcast as well as others. ''[[Ancestor]]'' was released on April 1, 2007 to much internet hype and, despite having been released two weeks earlier as a free ebook, reached #7 on [[Wikipedia:Amazon.com|Amazon.com]]'s best-seller list and #1 on Sci-Fi, Horror and Genre-Fiction on the day of release.<br />
<br />
Sigler is leveraging [[Wikipedia:new media|new media]] to keep in-touch with his fans, regularly talking with them using [[Wikipedia:social networking|social networking]] sites, via email, and IM.<br />
<br />
Scott Sigler was featured in a New York Times article<ref>http://www.nytimes.com/2007/03/01/books/01podb.html</ref> on March 1, 2007 by Andrew Adam Newman. It was covering authors using podcasting innovations to garner a broader audience.<br />

==Influences==<br />
===[[Wikipedia:Stephen King|Stephen King]]===<br />
Sigler calls King a ''master craftsman'', who writes from the "regular guy" strata from which he hails. "His older stuff had no pretense, no "higher message," no “I’m extremely important” attitude, just rock-solid storytelling and character development. He also would whack any character at any time, and that’s what hooked you in – when characters got into trouble, you didn’t know if they’d live, unlike 99% of the books out there that are trying to develop franchise characters."<br />
<br />
===[[Wikipedia:Jack London|Jack London]]===<br />
According to Sigler, "[[Wikipedia:The Sea Wolf|The Sea Wolf]] totally changed my views on life".<br />
<br />
===[[:Wikipedia:King_Kong_(1976_film)|King Kong]]===<br />
Sigler saw King Kong (1976 version) when he was a little kid. He said it, "Scared the crap out of me. I hid behind my dad’s shoulder and begged to leave the theatre. As soon as we were out, I asked when we could see it again – that was the moment I knew I wanted to tell monster stories. I wanted to have that same impact on other people."<br />

==Trivia== <br />
* On episodes released the week of [[Wikipedia:J|June 5th]] [[Wikipedia:2006|2006]], Sigler and fellow podcast novelist [[Wikipedia:J. C. Hutchins|J. C. Hutchins]] announced a contest called "[http://jchutchins.net/7Son/SHARE%20THE%20PAIN.html Share The Pain]" in which listeners are to identify the six instances in which the storyline of Sigler's ''Infection'' podcast novel collide with that of Hutchins' ''[[Wikipedia:7th Son (Podiobook)|7th Son]]''. The contest was run by Sigler, Hutchins and [[Wikipedia:Podcast Pickle|Podcast Pickle]].<br />
* Scott Sigler has made mention of another Scott Sigler, who performs as a clown and has apparently been mistaken for Scott the author. Strangely or suspiciously, the "other" Scott Sigler's clown name is Mookie, the same as Scott's dog.<br />
* In the premiere episode ''[[Sacred Cow]]'' on Stranger Things, Sigler played the voice of Bishop Kirland's personal assistant and can be seen with a large pair of steel scissors.<br />

<br />
'''Scott Carl Sigler''' <!-- (born [[November 30]]) --> is a contemporary [[Wikipedia:American literature|American author]] of [[Wikipedia:science fiction|science fiction]] and [[Wikipedia:Horror fiction|horror]] as well as an avid [[Wikipedia:podcaster|podcaster]]. Originally from [[Wikipedia:Michigan|Michigan]] he now resides in [[Wikipedia:San Diego, California|San Diego, California]].<br />
{{TOCleft}}<br />
==Life==<br />
Raised in [[Wikipedia:Cheboygan, Michigan|Cheboygan, Michigan]] Sigler's father passed his love of classic monster movies along to his son. His mother, a school teacher, encouraged his reading offering him any book he wanted. Sigler wrote his first monster story, "Tentacles", at the age of eight.<br />
<br />
Sigler didn't travel far for college having attended [[Wikipedia:Olivet College|Olivet College]] (Olivet, MI) and [[Wikipedia:Cleary College|Cleary College]] (Ann Arbor, MI) where he earned a BA in Journalism and a BS in Marketing. Scott has had a varied career path having worked fast food, picking fruit, shoveling horse manure, a sports reporter, director of marketing for a software company, software startup founder, marketing consultant, guitar salesman, bum in a rock band, and social media strategist before turning in his corporate ID to write fiction full time.<br />
<br />
===Use of Technology===<br />
''[[EarthCore]]'' was originally published in 2001 by iPublish, an AOL/Time Warner imprint. With the novel doing well as a promotional [[Wikipedia:ebook|ebook]], Time Warner was planning on publishing the novel. With the economic slump following [[Wikipedia:September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks|September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks]], Time Warner did away with the imprint in 2004, Scott decided to start podcasting his novel in March, 2005 as ''the worlds first podcast only novel'' to build hype and garner an audience for his work. Sigler considered it a "no brainer" to offer the book as a free audio download. Having searched for podcast novel's and finding none, Sigler decided to be the first. A shameless self-promoter and worker of viral marketing, Sigler was able to get ''[[EarthCore]]'' offered as a paid download on [[Wikipedia:iTunes|iTunes]] in 2006. <br />
<br />
After ''[[EarthCore|EarthCore's]]'' success (''[[EarthCore]]'' had over 10,000 subscribers), Sigler released ''[[Ancestor]]'', ''[[Infection]]'', ''[[The Rookie]]'', ''[[Nocturnal]]'', and the ''Bloodcast'' series of short stories via podcast. Currently he is producing his next series, ''[[The Crypt]]''.<br />

==Influences==<br />
===[[Wikipedia:Stephen King|Stephen King]]===<br />
Sigler calls King a ''master craftsman'', who writes from the "regular guy" strata from which he hails. "His older stuff had no pretense, no "higher message," no “I’m extremely important” attitude, just rock-solid storytelling and character development. He also would whack any character at any time, and that’s what hooked you in – when characters got into trouble, you didn’t know if they’d live, unlike 99% of the books out there that are trying to develop franchise characters."<br />
<br />
===[[Wikipedia:Jack London|Jack London]]===<br />
According to Sigler, "[[Wikipedia:The Sea Wolf|The Sea Wolf]] totally changed my views on life".<br />
<br />
===[[:Wikipedia:King_Kong_(1976_film)|King Kong]]===<br />
Sigler saw King Kong (1976 version) when he was a little kid. He said it, "Scared the crap out of me. I hid behind my dad’s shoulder and begged to leave the theatre. As soon as we were out, I asked when we could see it again – that was the moment I knew I wanted to tell monster stories. I wanted to have that same impact on other people."<br />

While no official release date has been announced, the author stated it would be out approximately one year from the date of the 2006 Expo, which will now be pushed back due to other book releases.<br />

==Trivia== <br />
* On episodes released the week of [[Wikipedia:J|June 5th]] [[Wikipedia:2006|2006]], Sigler and fellow podcast novelist [[Wikipedia:J. C. Hutchins|J. C. Hutchins]] announced a contest called "[http://jchutchins.net/7Son/SHARE%20THE%20PAIN.html Share The Pain]" in which listeners are to identify the six instances in which the storyline of Sigler's ''Infection'' podcast novel collide with that of Hutchins' ''[[Wikipedia:7th Son (Podiobook)|7th Son]]''. The contest was run by Sigler, Hutchins and [[Wikipedia:Podcast Pickle|Podcast Pickle]].<br />
* Scott Sigler has made mention of another Scott Sigler, who performs as a clown and has apparently been mistaken for Scott the author. Strangely or suspiciously, the "other" Scott Sigler's clown name is Mookie, the same as Scott's dog.<br />
* In the premiere episode ''[[Sacred Cow]]'' on Stranger Things, Sigler played the voice of Bishop Kirland's personal assistant and can be seen with a large pair of steel scissors.<br />

'''Scott Carl Sigler''' <!-- (born [[November 30]]) --> is a contemporary [[Wikipedia:American literature|American author]] of [[Wikipedia:science fiction|science fiction]] and [[Wikipedia:Horror fiction|horror]] as well as an avid [[Wikipedia:podcaster|podcaster]]. Originally from [[Wikipedia:Michigan|Michigan]] he now resides in [[Wikipedia:San Diego, California|San Diego, California]].<br />

==Life==<br />
Raised in [[Wikipedia:Cheboygan, Michigan|Cheboygan, Michigan]] Sigler's father passed his love of classic monster movies along to his son. His mother, a school teacher, encouraged his reading offering him any book he wanted. Sigler wrote his first monster story, "Tentacles", at the age of eight.<br />
<br />
Sigler didn't travel far for college having attended [[Wikipedia:Olivet College|Olivet College]] (Olivet, MI) and [[Wikipedia:Cleary College|Cleary College]] (Ann Arbor, MI) where he earned a BA in Journalism and a BS in Marketing. Scott has had a varied career path having worked fast food, picking fruit, shoveling horse manure, a sports reporter, director of marketing for a software company, software startup founder, marketing consultant, guitar salesman, bum in a rock band, and social media strategist before turning in his corporate ID to write fiction full time.<br />
<br />
===Use of Technology===<br />
''[[EarthCore]]'' was originally published in 2001 by iPublish, an AOL/Time Warner imprint. With the novel doing well as a promotional [[Wikipedia:ebook|ebook]], Time Warner was planning on publishing the novel. With the economic slump following [[Wikipedia:September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks|September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks]], Time Warner did away with the imprint in 2004, Scott decided to start podcasting his novel in March, 2005 as ''the worlds first podcast only novel'' to build hype and garner an audience for his work. Sigler considered it a "no brainer" to offer the book as a free audio download. Having searched for podcast novel's and finding none, Sigler decided to be the first. A shameless self-promoter and worker of viral marketing, Sigler was able to get ''[[EarthCore]]'' offered as a paid download on [[Wikipedia:iTunes|iTunes]] in 2006. <br />
<br />
After ''[[EarthCore|EarthCore's]]'' success (''[[EarthCore]]'' had over 10,000 subscribers), Sigler released ''[[Ancestor]]'', ''[[Infection]]'', ''[[The Rookie]]'', ''[[Nocturnal]]'', and the ''Bloodcast'' series of short stories via podcast. Currently he is producing his next series, ''[[The Crypt]]''.<br />
<br />
Pushing boundaries, Sigler released an Adobe PDF version of ''[[Ancestor]]'' on Monday 19th March 2007 through Sigler's own podcast as well as others. ''[[Ancestor]]'' was released on April 1, 2007 to much internet hype and, despite having been released two weeks earlier as a free ebook, reached #7 on [[Wikipedia:Amazon.com|Amazon.com]]'s best-seller list and #1 on Sci-Fi, Horror and Genre-Fiction on the day of release.<br />
<br />
Sigler is leveraging [[Wikipedia:new media|new media]] to keep in-touch with his fans, regularly talking with them using [[Wikipedia:social networking|social networking]] sites, via email, and IM.<br />
<br />
Scott Sigler was featured in a New York Times article<ref>http://www.nytimes.com/2007/03/01/books/01podb.html</ref> on March 1, 2007 by Andrew Adam Newman. It was covering authors using podcasting innovations to garner a broader audience.<br />

==Influences==<br />
===[[Wikipedia:Stephen King|Stephen King]]===<br />
Sigler calls King a ''master craftsman'', who writes from the "regular guy" strata from which he hails. "His older stuff had no pretense, no "higher message," no “I’m extremely important” attitude, just rock-solid storytelling and character development. He also would whack any character at any time, and that’s what hooked you in – when characters got into trouble, you didn’t know if they’d live, unlike 99% of the books out there that are trying to develop franchise characters."<br />
<br />
===[[Wikipedia:Jack London|Jack London]]===<br />
According to Sigler, "[[Wikipedia:The Sea Wolf|The Sea Wolf]] totally changed my views on life".<br />
<br />
===[[:Wikipedia:King_Kong_(1976_film)|King Kong]]===<br />
Sigler saw King Kong (1976 version) when he was a little kid. He said it, "Scared the crap out of me. I hid behind my dad’s shoulder and begged to leave the theatre. As soon as we were out, I asked when we could see it again – that was the moment I knew I wanted to tell monster stories. I wanted to have that same impact on other people."<br />

==Trivia== <br />
* On episodes released the week of [[Wikipedia:J|June 5th]] [[Wikipedia:2006|2006]], Sigler and fellow podcast novelist [[Wikipedia:J. C. Hutchins|J. C. Hutchins]] announced a contest called "[http://jchutchins.net/7Son/SHARE%20THE%20PAIN.html Share The Pain]" in which listeners are to identify the six instances in which the storyline of Sigler's ''Infection'' podcast novel collide with that of Hutchins' ''[[Wikipedia:7th Son (Podiobook)|7th Son]]''. The contest was run by Sigler, Hutchins and [[Wikipedia:Podcast Pickle|Podcast Pickle]].<br />
* Scott Sigler has made mention of another Scott Sigler, who performs as a clown and has apparently been mistaken for Scott the author. Strangely or suspiciously, the "other" Scott Sigler's clown name is Mookie, the same as Scott's dog.<br />
* In the premiere episode ''[[Sacred Cow]]'' on Stranger Things, Sigler played the voice of Bishop Kirland's personal assistant and can be seen with a large pair of steel scissors.<br />

[[Scott Sigler]] wrote his first monster story in the third grade and hasn't stopped since. A creator of novels, short stories and screenplays, Scott's work revolves around modern science's dichotomy of simultaneously producing good and evil. <br />
<br />
Scott reinvented book publishing when he released [[EarthCore]] as the world's first podcast-only novel. Released in twenty weekly episodes, EarthCore harkened back to the days of serialized radio fiction and picked up 10,000 subscribers along the way. <br />
<br />
[[Ancestor]], drew 30,000 listeners and saw 700,000 episodes downloaded by fans. The Ancestor buzz caused Sirius Satellite Radio to pick up the novel, making it the first audiobook serialized on the satellite network.<br />
<br />
Scott's innovative use of technology puts him at the forefront of modern-day publishing, and has garnered brand-name exposure among hundreds of thousands of fiction fans and technology buffs. He's been covered in the Washington Post, Business Week, CNET, The Book Standard, MacWorld and the nationally syndicated radio show The Dragon Page.<br />

<br />
Deep below a desolate Utah mountain lies the largest platinum deposit ever discovered. A billion-dollar find, it waits for any company that can drill a world’s record, three-mile-deep mine shaft. EarthCore is the company with the technology, the resources and the guts to go after the mother lode. Young executive Connell Kirkland is the company’s driving force, pushing himself and those around him to uncover the massive treasure.<br />
<br />
But at three miles below the surface, where the rocks are so hot they burn bare skin, something has been waiting for centuries. Waiting … and guarding. Kirkland and EarthCore are about to find out firsthand why this treasure has never been unearthed.<br />

Scott has had a varied career path having worked fast food, picking fruit, shoveling horse manure, a sports reporter, director of marketing for a software company, software startup founder, marketing consultant, guitar salesman, bum in a rock band, and social media strategist before turning in his corporate ID to write fiction full time.<br />
<br />
===Use of Technology===<br />
''[[EarthCore]]'' was originally published in 2001 by iPublish, an AOL/Time Warner imprint. With the novel doing well as a promotional [[Wikipedia:ebook|ebook]], Time Warner was planning on publishing the novel. With the economic slump following [[Wikipedia:September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks|September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks]], Time Warner did away with the imprint in 2004, Scott decided to start podcasting his novel in March, 2005 as ''the worlds first podcast only novel'' to build hype and garner an audience for his work. Sigler considered it a "no brainer" to offer the book as a free audio download. Having searched for podcast novel's and finding none, Sigler decided to be the first. A shameless self-promoter and worker of viral marketing, Sigler was able to get ''[[EarthCore]]'' offered as a paid download on [[Wikipedia:iTunes|iTunes]] in 2006. <br />
<br />
After ''[[EarthCore|EarthCore's]]'' success (''[[EarthCore]]'' had over 10,000 subscribers), Sigler released ''[[Ancestor]]'', ''[[Infection]]'', ''[[The Rookie]]'', ''[[Nocturnal]]'', and the ''Bloodcast'' series of short stories via podcast. Currently he is producing his next series, ''[[The Crypt]]''.<br />
<br />
Pushing boundaries, Sigler released an Adobe PDF version of ''[[Ancestor]]'' on Monday 19th March 2007 through Sigler's own podcast as well as others. ''[[Ancestor]]'' was released on April 1, 2007 to much internet hype and, despite having been released two weeks earlier as a free ebook, reached #7 on [[Wikipedia:Amazon.com|Amazon.com]]'s best-seller list and #1 on Sci-Fi, Horror and Genre-Fiction on the day of release.<br />
<br />
Sigler is leveraging [[Wikipedia:new media|new media]] to keep in-touch with his fans, regularly talking with them using [[Wikipedia:social networking|social networking]] sites, via email, and IM.<br />
<br />
Scott Sigler was featured in a New York Times article<ref>http://www.nytimes.com/2007/03/01/books/01podb.html</ref> on March 1, 2007 by Andrew Adam Newman. It was covering authors using podcasting innovations to garner a broader audience.<br />

==Influences==<br />
===[[Wikipedia:Stephen King|Stephen King]]===<br />
Sigler calls King a ''master craftsman'', who writes from the "regular guy" strata from which he hails. "His older stuff had no pretense, no "higher message," no “I’m extremely important” attitude, just rock-solid storytelling and character development. He also would whack any character at any time, and that’s what hooked you in – when characters got into trouble, you didn’t know if they’d live, unlike 99% of the books out there that are trying to develop franchise characters."<br />
<br />
===[[Wikipedia:Jack London|Jack London]]===<br />
According to Sigler, "[[Wikipedia:The Sea Wolf|The Sea Wolf]] totally changed my views on life".<br />
<br />
===[[:Wikipedia:King_Kong_(1976_film)|King Kong]]===<br />
Sigler saw King Kong (1976 version) when he was a little kid. He said it, "Scared the crap out of me. I hid behind my dad’s shoulder and begged to leave the theatre. As soon as we were out, I asked when we could see it again – that was the moment I knew I wanted to tell monster stories. I wanted to have that same impact on other people."<br />

===Future Stories===<br />
----<br />
*''[[Earthcore II: Mt. Fitzroy|Earthcore II: Mount Fitz Roy]]'' was officially announced at the September 2006 Portable Media Expo (now renamed "The Podcast & New Media Expo") in Ontario, California. The podcast sequel to ''[[Earthcore]]'' follows a heavily-armed team led by the surviving [[Patrick O'Doyle]] as they head off to the other known [[Rocktopi]] site at Mt. Fitzroy, Argentina. While no official release date has been announced, the author stated it would be out approximately one year from the date of the 2006 Expo, which will now be pushed back due to other book releases.<br />
<br />
*''Galactic Football League Series Book 6''<br />
<br />
*''Galactic Football League Series Book 7''<br />
<br />
*''Galactic Football League Series Book 8''<br />
<br />
*''[[Nocturnal]]'', release of a reworked story line from the originally podcasted novel.<br />
<br />
==Trivia== <br />
* On episodes released the week of [[Wikipedia:J|June 5th]] [[Wikipedia:2006|2006]], Sigler and fellow podcast novelist [[Wikipedia:J. C. Hutchins|J. C. Hutchins]] announced a contest called "[http://jchutchins.net/7Son/SHARE%20THE%20PAIN.html Share The Pain]" in which listeners are to identify the six instances in which the storyline of Sigler's ''Infection'' podcast novel collide with that of Hutchins' ''[[Wikipedia:7th Son (Podiobook)|7th Son]]''.

* Scott Sigler has made mention of another Scott Sigler, who performs as a clown and has apparently been mistaken for Scott the author. Strangely or suspiciously, the "other" Scott Sigler's clown name is Mookie, the same as Scott's dog.<br />
* In the premiere episode ''[[Sacred Cow]]'' on Stranger Things, Sigler played the voice of Bishop Kirland's personal assistant and can be seen with a large pair of steel scissors.<br />

'''Scott Carl Sigler''' <!-- (born [[November 30]]) --> is a contemporary [[Wikipedia:American literature|American author]] of [[Wikipedia:science fiction|science fiction]] and [[Wikipedia:Horror fiction|horror]] as well as an avid [[Wikipedia:podcaster|podcaster]]. Originally from [[Wikipedia:Michigan|Michigan]] he now resides in [[Wikipedia:San Diego, California|San Diego, California]].<br />
{{TOCleft}}<br />
==Life==<br />
Raised in [[Wikipedia:Cheboygan, Michigan|Cheboygan, Michigan]] Sigler's father passed his love of classic monster movies along to his son. His mother, a school teacher, encouraged his reading offering him any book he wanted. Sigler wrote his first monster story, "Tentacles", at the age of eight.<br />
<br />
Sigler didn't travel far for college having attended [[Wikipedia:Olivet College|Olivet College]] (Olivet, MI) and [[Wikipedia:Cleary College|Cleary College]] (Ann Arbor, MI) where he earned a BA in Journalism and a BS in Marketing. Scott has had a varied career path having worked fast food, picking fruit, shoveling horse manure, a sports reporter, director of marketing for a software company, software startup founder, marketing consultant, guitar salesman, bum in a rock band, and social media strategist before turning in his corporate ID to write fiction full time.<br />
<br />
===Use of Technology===<br />
''[[EarthCore]]'' was originally published in 2001 by iPublish, an AOL/Time Warner imprint. With the novel doing well as a promotional [[Wikipedia:ebook|ebook]], Time Warner was planning on publishing the novel. With the economic slump following [[Wikipedia:September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks|September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks]], Time Warner did away with the imprint in 2004, Scott decided to start podcasting his novel in March, 2005 as ''the worlds first podcast only novel'' to build hype and garner an audience for his work. Sigler considered it a "no brainer" to offer the book as a free audio download. Having searched for podcast novel's and finding none, Sigler decided to be the first. A shameless self-promoter and worker of viral marketing, Sigler was able to get ''[[EarthCore]]'' offered as a paid download on [[Wikipedia:iTunes|iTunes]] in 2006. <br />
<br />
After ''[[EarthCore|EarthCore's]]'' success (''[[EarthCore]]'' had over 10,000 subscribers), Sigler released ''[[Ancestor]]'', ''[[Infection]]'', ''[[The Rookie]]'', ''[[Nocturnal]]'', and the ''Bloodcast'' series of short stories via podcast. Currently he is producing his next series, ''[[The Crypt]]''.<br />
<br />
Pushing boundaries, Sigler released an Adobe PDF version of ''[[Ancestor]]'' on Monday 19th March 2007 through Sigler's own podcast as well as others. ''[[Ancestor]]'' was released on April 1, 2007 to much internet hype and, despite having been released two weeks earlier as a free ebook, reached #7 on [[Wikipedia:Amazon.com|Amazon.com]]'s best-seller list and #1 on Sci-Fi, Horror and Genre-Fiction on the day of release.<br />
<br />
Sigler is leveraging [[Wikipedia:new media|new media]] to keep in-touch with his fans, regularly talking with them using [[Wikipedia:social networking|social networking]] sites, via email, and IM.<br />
<br />
Scott Sigler was featured in a New York Times article<ref>http://www.nytimes.com/2007/03/01/books/01podb.html</ref> on March 1, 2007 by Andrew Adam Newman. It was covering authors using podcasting innovations to garner a broader audience.<br />

==Influences==<br />
===[[Wikipedia:Stephen King|Stephen King]]===<br />
Sigler calls King a ''master craftsman'', who writes from the "regular guy" strata from which he hails. "His older stuff had no pretense, no "higher message," no “I’m extremely important” attitude, just rock-solid storytelling and character development. He also would whack any character at any time, and that’s what hooked you in – when characters got into trouble, you didn’t know if they’d live, unlike 99% of the books out there that are trying to develop franchise characters."<br />
<br />
===[[Wikipedia:Jack London|Jack London]]===<br />
According to Sigler, "[[Wikipedia:The Sea Wolf|The Sea Wolf]] totally changed my views on life".<br />
<br />
===[[:Wikipedia:King_Kong_(1976_film)|King Kong]]===<br />
Sigler saw King Kong (1976 version) when he was a little kid. He said it, "Scared the crap out of me. I hid behind my dad’s shoulder and begged to leave the theatre. As soon as we were out, I asked when we could see it again – that was the moment I knew I wanted to tell monster stories. I wanted to have that same impact on other people."<br />

==Trivia== <br />
* On episodes released the week of [[Wikipedia:J|June 5th]] [[Wikipedia:2006|2006]], Sigler and fellow podcast novelist [[Wikipedia:J. C. Hutchins|J. C. Hutchins]] announced a contest called "[http://jchutchins.net/7Son/SHARE%20THE%20PAIN.html Share The Pain]" in which listeners are to identify the six instances in which the storyline of Sigler's ''Infection'' podcast novel collide with that of Hutchins' ''[[Wikipedia:7th Son (Podiobook)|7th Son]]''. The contest was run by Sigler, Hutchins and [[Wikipedia:Podcast Pickle|Podcast Pickle]].<br />
* Scott Sigler has made mention of another Scott Sigler, who performs as a clown and has apparently been mistaken for Scott the author. Strangely or suspiciously, the "other" Scott Sigler's clown name is Mookie, the same as Scott's dog.<br />
* In the premiere episode ''[[Sacred Cow]]'' on Stranger Things, Sigler played the voice of Bishop Kirland's personal assistant and can be seen with a large pair of steel scissors.<br />

<br />
'''Hooper's Grinders'''<br><br />
''"Because here at the Galaxy's Greatest Sports Show, we just love us some Hooper's Grinders. Hooper's, with franchises all across the Planetary Union, the League of Planets, the Tower Republic and opening soon, the Quyth Concordia."'' [[The Champion]]<br><br />
<br />
'''Ju-Ku-Killok Shipping'''<br><br />
''"Brought to you by Ju-Ku-Killok Shipping. Remember, if you've got to ship it across the galaxy, don't you want to ship it with a Ki?"'' [[The Rookie]]<br><br />
''"This segment brought to you by Ju-Ku-Killok Shipping. Remember, if you've got to ship it across the galaxy, don't you want to ship it with a Ki?"'' [[The Starter]]<br><br />

<br />
'''Miller Lager'''<br><br />
Quentin reached into the bottom of his locker and pulled out a can of Shokess Beer. He twisted the top, smiling in anticipation as the can instantly frosted up. He flipped the lid and took a long drink. It was the best beer the Purist Nation had to offer, which wasn’t saying much — he’d had a can of Miller Lager once when playing at Buddha City Stadium. Now that was real beer. [[The Rookie]]<br><br />
<br />
'''Kin-Al-Brin's Fresh-Kill Farm'''<br><br />

<br />
'''Shi-Ki-Kill Shipping'''<br><br />
''"Time for a word from one of our sponsors! Let's break for this message from Shi-Ki-Kill Shipping. Remember, if you want to protect your cargo against pirates, doesn't it make sense to ship it via a company with lethality built right into their name?"'' [[The MVP]]<br><br />
<br />

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to help this Junkie effort to find all of the 30+ hidden Easter eggs of 1980s (and other) pop-culture references that Scott included in his 2012 rewrite of Nocturnal. Those approved by Scott will be added to the [[Pop Culture References]] page later.<br />
<br />
This challenge was first posted by John Vizcarra on October 17, 2017, on the Sigler Junkies Facebook group. He has charged Shannon Chavarria to lead the rest of us junkies to find these hidden treasures.<br />
<br />
Since comments are easily lost in the Facebook posts, I thought it might be easier to gather all of the findings here in one easily viewable page so that we can see what has, or hasn't, been found so far. Please keep posting your findings in the Sigler Junkies group, or the more brave can try to add them here as well.<br />

<div>'''Welcome to the Nocturnal Egg Mission!'''<br />
<br />
== Mission ==<br />
<br />
Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to help this Junkie effort to find all of the 30+ hidden Easter eggs of 1980s (and other) pop-culture references that Scott included in his 2012 rewrite of Nocturnal. Those approved by Scott will be added to the [[Pop Culture References]] page later.<br />
<br />
This challenge was first posted by John Vizcarra on October 17, 2017, on the Sigler Junkies Facebook group. He has charged Shannon Chavarria to lead the rest of us junkies to find these hidden treasures.<br />
<br />
Since comments are easily lost in the Facebook posts, I thought it might be easier to gather all of the findings here in one easily viewable page so that we can see what has, or hasn't, been found so far. Please keep posting your findings in the Sigler Junkies group, or the more brave can try to add them here as well.<br />

<div>[[Image:ScottSigler.jpg|thumb|right|Photo of Scott Sigler by "Surly" Amy Davis Roth<br />
]]<br />
<br />
'''Scott Carl Sigler''' <!-- (born [[November 30]]) --> is a contemporary [[Wikipedia:American literature|American author]] of [[Wikipedia:science fiction|science fiction]] and [[Wikipedia:Horror fiction|horror]] as well as an avid [[Wikipedia:podcaster|podcaster]]. Originally from [[Wikipedia:Michigan|Michigan]] he now resides in [[Wikipedia:San Diego, California|San Diego, California]].<br />
{{TOCleft}}<br />
==Life==<br />
Raised in [[Wikipedia:Cheboygan, Michigan|Cheboygan, Michigan]] Sigler's father passed his love of classic monster movies along to his son. His mother, a school teacher, encouraged his reading offering him any book he wanted. Sigler wrote his first monster story, "Tentacles", at the age of eight.<br />
<br />
Sigler didn't travel far for college having attended [[Wikipedia:Olivet College|Olivet College]] (Olivet, MI) and [[Wikipedia:Cleary College|Cleary College]] (Ann Arbor, MI) where he earned a BA in Journalism and a BS in Marketing. Scott has had a varied career path having worked fast food, picking fruit, shoveling horse manure, a sports reporter, director of marketing for a software company, software startup founder, marketing consultant, guitar salesman, bum in a rock band, and social media strategist before turning in his corporate ID to write fiction full time.<br />
<br />
===Use of Technology===<br />
''[[EarthCore]]'' was originally published in 2001 by iPublish, an AOL/Time Warner imprint. With the novel doing well as a promotional [[Wikipedia:ebook|ebook]], Time Warner was planning on publishing the novel. With the economic slump following [[Wikipedia:September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks|September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks]], Time Warner did away with the imprint in 2004, Scott decided to start podcasting his novel in March, 2005 as ''the worlds first podcast only novel'' to build hype and garner an audience for his work. Sigler considered it a "no brainer" to offer the book as a free audio download. Having searched for podcast novel's and finding none, Sigler decided to be the first. A shameless self-promoter and worker of viral marketing, Sigler was able to get ''[[EarthCore]]'' offered as a paid download on [[Wikipedia:iTunes|iTunes]] in 2006. <br />
<br />
After ''[[EarthCore|EarthCore's]]'' success (''[[EarthCore]]'' had over 10,000 subscribers), Sigler released ''[[Ancestor]]'', ''[[Infection]]'', ''[[The Rookie]]'', ''[[Nocturnal]]'', and the ''Bloodcast'' series of short stories via podcast. Currently he is producing his next series, ''[[The Crypt]]''.<br />
<br />
Pushing boundaries, Sigler released an Adobe PDF version of ''[[Ancestor]]'' on Monday 19th March 2007 through Sigler's own podcast as well as others. ''[[Ancestor]]'' was released on April 1, 2007 to much internet hype and, despite having been released two weeks earlier as a free ebook, reached #7 on [[Wikipedia:Amazon.com|Amazon.com]]'s best-seller list and #1 on Sci-Fi, Horror and Genre-Fiction on the day of release.<br />
<br />
Sigler is leveraging [[Wikipedia:new media|new media]] to keep in-touch with his fans, regularly talking with them using [[Wikipedia:social networking|social networking]] sites, via email, and IM.<br />
<br />
Scott Sigler was featured in a New York Times article<ref>http://www.nytimes.com/2007/03/01/books/01podb.html</ref> on March 1, 2007 by Andrew Adam Newman. It was covering authors using podcasting innovations to garner a broader audience.<br />

==Influences==<br />
===[[Wikipedia:Stephen King|Stephen King]]===<br />
Sigler calls King a ''master craftsman'', who writes from the "regular guy" strata from which he hails. "His older stuff had no pretense, no "higher message," no “I’m extremely important” attitude, just rock-solid storytelling and character development. He also would whack any character at any time, and that’s what hooked you in – when characters got into trouble, you didn’t know if they’d live, unlike 99% of the books out there that are trying to develop franchise characters."<br />
<br />
===[[Wikipedia:Jack London|Jack London]]===<br />
According to Sigler, "[[Wikipedia:The Sea Wolf|The Sea Wolf]] totally changed my views on life".<br />
<br />
===[[:Wikipedia:King_Kong_(1976_film)|King Kong]]===<br />
Sigler saw King Kong (1976 version) when he was a little kid. He said it, "Scared the crap out of me. I hid behind my dad’s shoulder and begged to leave the theatre. As soon as we were out, I asked when we could see it again – that was the moment I knew I wanted to tell monster stories. I wanted to have that same impact on other people."<br />

----<br />
*''[[Earthcore II: Mt. Fitzroy|Earthcore II: Mount Fitz Roy]]'' was officially announced at the September 2006 Portable Media Expo (now renamed "The Podcast & New Media Expo") in Ontario, California. The podcast sequel to ''[[Earthcore]]'' follows a heavily-armed team led by the surviving [[Patrick O'Doyle]] as they head off to the other known [[Rocktopi]] site at Mt. Fitzroy, Argentina. While no official release date has been announced, the author stated it would be out approximately one year from the date of the 2006 Expo, which will now be pushed back due to other book releases.<br />
<br />
*''Galactic Football League Series Book 6''<br />
<br />
*''Galactic Football League Series Book 7''<br />
<br />
*''[[Nocturnal]]'', release of a reworked story line from the originally podcasted novel.<br />
<br />
==Trivia== <br />
* On episodes released the week of [[Wikipedia:J|June 5th]] [[Wikipedia:2006|2006]], Sigler and fellow podcast novelist [[Wikipedia:J. C. Hutchins|J. C. Hutchins]] announced a contest called "[http://jchutchins.net/7Son/SHARE%20THE%20PAIN.html Share The Pain]" in which listeners are to identify the six instances in which the storyline of Sigler's ''Infection'' podcast novel collide with that of Hutchins' ''[[Wikipedia:7th Son (Podiobook)|7th Son]]''. The contest was run by Sigler, Hutchins and [[Wikipedia:Podcast Pickle|Podcast Pickle]].<br />
* Scott Sigler has made mention of another Scott Sigler, who performs as a clown and has apparently been mistaken for Scott the author. Strangely or suspiciously, the "other" Scott Sigler's clown name is Mookie, the same as Scott's dog.<br />
* In the premiere episode ''[[Sacred Cow]]'' on Stranger Things, Sigler played the voice of Bishop Kirland's personal assistant and can be seen with a large pair of steel scissors.<br />

<div>[[image:12-19-08 Krakens.jpg|thumb|right|Arioch in his Kraken's jersey]]<br />
Arioch was introduced to [[:wikipedia:Podcast|podcasts]] when his brother gave him a sampler CD of some random [[:wikipedia:Podcast|'casts.]] At first he didn't really see the point. It simply didn't click that you could sign up for just about '''any''' type of content and have commercial free audio automatically download into [http://www.itunes.com iTunes] on a regular basis. In October of 2006, he discovered [http://www.podiobooks.com/ Podiobooks.com]. <br />
<br />
He immediately fell in love with the concept that [http://funanymore.com/about/ Evo Terra] has created there. Talk about turning the traditional publishing model on its head! You can download complete [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audiobook audiobooks] absolutely free. ''After'' you've listened to whatever you choose, ''then'' you decide if it's worth paying for. If it was crap (or you're a cheap bastard) you pay nothing. '''If''' you think the material merits renumeration, make a donation. The author gets 75% of whatever you give. That's way more than they'd ever get at a traditional publishing house.<br />
<br />
Arioch found [[Scott Sigler|Scott's]] work that same month. [[Ancestor]] was the third book he listened to on [http://www.podiobooks.com/ Podiobooks.com]. It remains one of his favorite novels to this day. After [[Ancestor]], he listened to [[Earthcore]] and [[Infection]], the pre-cursor to [[Infected]]. By this time, Arioch had subscribed to [[Scott Sigler|Scott's]] [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RSS_feed RSS] feed and couldn't get enough. He had become a hard core [[Crack#Junkie|Junkie]]. He became psyched anytime [[Scott Sigler|Scott]] was a guest author on another [[:wikipedia:Podcast|podcast]]. He'd learned that [[Scott Sigler|Scott]] was one of the best authors in the [[:wikipedia:podosphere|podosphere]].<br />
<br />
Arioch first connected with [[Scott Sigler|Scott]] when he offered to produce the [[Bloodcast]] onto [http://www.podiobooks.com/ Podiobooks.com] for our beloved [[FDO]]. Arioch has worked with [[Scott Sigler|Scott]] and [[:wikipedia:Evo Terra|Evo Terra]] to produce [http://podiobooks.com/title/bloodcast-1 Bloodcast Season 1], [http://podiobooks.com/title/bloodcast-2 Bloodcast Season 2], [http://podiobooks.com/title/infected Infected], [http://www.podiobooks.com/title/contagious Contagious], [http://www.podiobooks.com/title/nocturnal Nocturnal], [http://www.podiobooks.com/title/the-rookie The Rookie Re-Mastered], and [http://www.podiobooks.com/title/the-crypt-01 The Crypt Book 01: The Crew] onto [http://www.podiobooks.com/ Podiobooks.com]. <br />
<br />
Arioch was overjoyed when he was granted [[MastaPimp]] status in 2008. He was integrally involved in the 2009 Rookie Tailgate Tour where [[Scott Sigler|Scott]] drove around the country promoting the hardcover release of [[The Rookie]] by [[Dark Øverlord Media]]. He took the original sound files and re-mastered them so the [[Crack#Junkie|Junkies]] would have the best possible listening experience to go along with the book. Arioch was ecstatic when he learned that he was being assimilated into [[Dark Øverlord Media|Døm]] in February of 2010. [[Image:Sm._Best_Triple_Parsec.jpg|thumb|right|RAWK!!!]] <br />
<br />
Arioch assumed the production duties for [[Scott Sigler|Scott's]] [[:wikipedia:Parsec Award|Parsec]] entries after they began working together. Five of [http://www.scottsigler.com/node/1651 Team Sigler's submissions] emerged as [http://parsecawards.com/node/541 finalists] in 2008. Scott returned home with his first [[Wikipedia: Parsec Awards|Parsec]] for [http://parsecawards.com/node/542 Best Speculative Fiction Story (Short Form)] for [[Red Man]] that year. This award was long overdue, being as prior to this conspirators within the industry had long denied [[General Siglerisimo]] this much sought after honor. In 2009, [[Team Sigler]] submitted [http://www.scottsigler.com/node/3037 six entries] to the steering committee. Three of [[Scott Sigler|Scott's]] gems survived the gauntlet this time around and landed in the [http://www.parsecawards.com/node/861 2009 finals]. [[Team Sigler]] came back triumphant for the second year in a row with a win for [http://www.parsecawards.com/node/865 Best Speculative Fiction Story (Novella Form)] for [http://www.scottsigler.com/node/1919 EuSocial Networking]. In 2010, [[Team Sigler]] only had four creations nominated for a Parsec, but '''''all''''' of them were [http://www.parsecawards.com/2010finalists selected as 2010 finalists]. Everyone on the team was stunned when we pulled off a hat trick and came home from Atlanta with the 2010 [http://www.parsecawards.com/2010winners Best Speculative Fiction Story (Short Form)] Parsec Award for [http://www.scottsigler.com/node/3029 The Tank].<br />
<br />
Arioch assisted with editing and proofreading for [[The Starter]] in 2010. He has recently begun editing, producing, and performing [[Tuesday Terror]], a fan generated anthology podcast based in the Siglerverse. Arioch continues to assist our [[FDO]] and the lovely [[A Kovacs]] with miscellaneous aspects of production and plans to do so for the foreseeable future. He is a proud member of [[Team Sigler]] and [[Dark Øverlord Media]].<br />

[[image:Fan_03Gmork.jpg|thumb|right|Gmork rocking the Krakens Jersey]]<br />
Never having been a fan of the horror genre, I was pleasantly surprised by the entertainment value of [[Scott Sigler|Scott Sigler's]] novels. I came on board with the novel '''[[Ancestor]]''' and loved it so much that I went back and listened to '''[[EarthCore]]'''. Since then, I have devoured just about every other work of [[Scott Sigler|Scott's]] and am in the throes of '''[[Nocturnal]]''' with high hopes for the surprises that it may hold. <br />
<br />
Currently, I am having quite a bit of fun applying my familiarity with [[Scott Sigler|Scott's]] novel '''[[Ancestor]]''' to updating this Wiki and encourage any other fans to give it a try and contribute.<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
I am an voracious reader with a wide and eclectic taste. Along with enjoying a good read, I also enjoy collecting books and currently have a little over 2,000 books in my collection. The cornerstone of my collection being a 52 book set comprising the 1938 printing of the [[Wikipedia:Harvard Classics|Harvard Classics]]. <br />
<br />
===Education===<br />
With both an undergraduate degree and a graduate degree, I am at the point in my life where I don't want to see another structured class ever again....not even a cooking class. God bless anyone who has ever completed a PhD program!<br />
<br />
===Work===<br />
My work life centers on the financial industry and the impact of fraud risk on said industry. I get the chance to think like a baddie but live with a clear conscious. Needless to say, working in fraud risk compels me to own a very large and very powerful paper shredder (yikes).<br />

'''''Mac “Stone Balls” Cooley''''' is a character in the novel titled ''[[The Crypt]]'' by author [[Scott Sigler]]. The character is initially introduced in [[The Crypt Book 01: The Crew|Book One]] episode seventeen of the serialized [[Wikipedia: Podcast|podcast]].<br />
<br />
==Character Background==<br />
Mac Cooley is currently a Lieutenant serving in the Special Forces branch of the Planetary Union Marine Corps (PUMC). He was given the task of dropping in to a [[Ki]] Commando controlled jungle on the [[Ki (Planet)|Planet Ki]], find the [[Ki|Ki Commandos]], stop them from killing you, embed with them and use them to gather intelligence on the [[Ki]] Rebel Association’s anti-aircraft installations.<br />
Cooley spent the last three months embedded with the [[Ki]] Imperial Commandos, headed by Mao Ga. In order to embed with the [[Ki]], he spoke their language, fought their fight, and ate their food. While on a reconnaissance mission for a company of 200 Marines en route to disable an anti-aircraft installation, Mac and Mao Ga come across a [[Ki]] Rebel observation post holding three [[Purist Nation]] soldiers. Cooley’s interrogation of the captured soldiers revealed a [[Ki]] Rebel ambush that was awaiting the 200 marines as they closed in on the anti-aircraft installation. When Cooley’s Commanding Officer, [[Andrew Morton|Captain Andrew Morton]], ignores Cooley’s warning and cuts off his communications, Cooley is forced to make a decision – obey his CO or save 200 men from certain death. Cooley only questioned [[Andrew Morton|Capt Morton’s]] judgment because he knew the Capt Morton had limited combat experience and was exhibiting an undue urgency to keep to his “time table”. Feeling the Captain was making an egregiously bad decision that would cost lives, Cooley informs his second in command, Sgt Melissa “Trip B” Dyer about the error in judgment and suggests they take out [[Andrew Morton|Capt Morton]]. Although Sgt Dyer agrees the decision is bad, she is affronted by Cooley’s suggestion of murdering the CO. Understanding her resolution, Cooley instructs the [[Ki]] commando Mao Ga Ma to kill [[Andrew Morton|Capt Morton]] with a sniper shot. Once [[Andrew Morton|Capt Morton]] is dead, Cooley assumes command of the unit and instructs them to retreat. As they retreat, Planetary Union superior atmospheric fighters are shot out of the sky by the very installation [[Andrew Morton|Capt Morton]] was having his marine unit attack. Finally, Sgt Dyer’s supporting soldiers surround Cooley and take him prisoner for killing [[Andrew Morton|Capt Morton]].<br />
<br />
==Attributes==<br />
===Personality===<br />
Cooley is a capable and intelligent soldier. Fluent in several languages, his respect and admiration for the warrior culture makes him the perfect operative for infiltrating and embedding with alien cultures. He welcomes difficult situations that would make other soldiers squeamish and his love of adrenaline rushes earn him the nickname of “Stone Balls” or “Stoney” for short. <br />
If Cooley has a character flaw, it would be his sense of morality. In a strange dichotomy, he values life so much that he’s willing to take a life to save the greater population. In the skirmish with the [[Ki]] Rebellion this flaw shows itself in two distinct instances. During the interrogation of several captured [[Purist Nation]] soldiers, he rationalized that since 200 marines were in imminent danger of an ambush he didn’t have time to follow the proper convention treatment of prisoners of war. This bending of his moral code lead him to torture and execute the captured soldiers, killing one even though the prisoner gave him the information he wanted. The second instance of Cooley’s wavering moral compass happens in the killing of his Commanding Officer, [[Andrew Morton|Capt Morton]] and in Cooley’s hesitation in killing Sgt Dyer. In both [[Andrew Morton|Capt Morton]] and Sgt Dyer’s cases, the deciding factor between life and death was whether or not they had put lives in danger.<br />
<br />
===Skills===<br />
Cooley has the ability to embed with different races which gave him a strategic advantage. While most marines would hesitate at the chance to embed with the [[Ki]], Cooley welcomed the challenge. His respect for the [[Ki]] as warriors (and all around badasses) allowed him to overlook their more unsavory attributes.<br />
Accompanying his ability to embed was his proficiency in languages. Cooley spoke the four major languages of the [[Purist Nation]], as well as the system’s six major dialects. He also learned some [[Ki]] from Mao Ga Ma, although it was difficult for a human to physically emulate the [[Ki]] language.<br />
<br />
===Co-Authored Character===<br />
The character of Mac “ Stone Balls” Cooley was the result of a collaboration between authors [[Scott Sigler]] and [http://www.shadowpublications.com/ Paul Elard Cooley]. <br />

After the intelligence division discovered minor errors within the production, [[General Siglerisimo]] dispatched some [[The Great Snipe Hunt|snipes]] to terminate him for letting the public see that [[Scott Sigler]] was fallible after all. [[Pope Siglericus XXX]] gave his blessing to this endeavor, but was saddened by the need to martyr such a devoted [[junkie]] as Mr. Yake.<br />
