After getting a heads up from Rob Walch, I did some research on Mur Lafferty. I never met her, but with all that she’s accomplished in podcasting over the past 2-years, this list wouldn’t be complete without adding Mur.

I’m not usually wrong (I’m a Capricorn, what do you expect), but in this case, it’s wrong to exclude Mur and her accomplishments in podcasting from my definitive Top 10 list. I already updated the final Top 10 list with Mur’s profile, but I have to pay tribute to her successes with a quick summary.

A self-professed writing junkie, Mur Lafferty spends her days writing for magazines and producing several of her own podcasts.

Mur is one of the first women to author a book on podcasting. She co-authored Tricks of the Podcasting Masters which was the only podcasting book selected by Amazon as one of the Best Books of 2006 in the Reference category. Mur also produces presidential candidate John Edwards’ podcast called At the Table, a podcast that captures the informal dinner conversation between Edwards and his wife.

Mur also produces 2 of her own podcasts:

• Geek Fu Action Grip – A podcast about all things geeky.
• I Should Be Writing – A podcast helping freelance writers navigate through the freelance writing market.

Mur is one of my picks as a Top 10 savvy woman in podcasting in 2006.
