If Characters Were Held Hostage By The Author
Added 2023-09-15 12:29:49 +0000 UTCI put this up on TikTok and then I thought: you know, I bet some of my Patrons would appreciate seeing a reading from the current JSMN draft, I should put it on here too :)

Still catching up on content posted before I became a Patron - what makes this reading even more wonderful, besides hearing how the characters sound, is watching your expressions that go with it! Given the issues recording the audiobook, I can't really wish for a video version of that reading, much as I'd love to watch it!

2025-03-31 17:50:19 +0000 UTCyes as much as I typically prefer paper books for the collection I do rather hope for a full audio book read by you.

2023-09-19 19:54:39 +0000 UTCI loved that scene when I read it in the drafts and I love it more hearing you read it! This also makes me very excited for an audiobook... and obligatory author's tour! I mean, it is obligatory, even if it's a very limited tour with just a handful of visits; we all need to queue up and get our in-person autographed copies and photo opportunities somehow... 💜

2023-09-18 09:14:13 +0000 UTCIt doesn't currently exist, but when it does I'll let you know where you can find it!

2023-09-18 09:12:38 +0000 UTCIt's a fluid and rapidly changing situation through the book.

2023-09-17 22:54:15 +0000 UTCJill has implied that she hopes to do an Audio book. While she might start on it while the book is being copy edited and Beta read, it is not expected to be ready at the same times as the e-book or paper and hardbacks (Feb2024) but probably some time later in 2024.

2023-09-17 20:31:38 +0000 UTCDoes this mean that you will be producing an author read audio book?!

2023-09-17 13:42:45 +0000 UTCWhere can I order the audio book? It is delightful how you bring them all to life! You've elevated talking to yourself to an art form.

2023-09-17 05:02:47 +0000 UTCI just love the voice you've given Leo. It's perfect. :D And this is hands down one of my favorite scenes!

2023-09-15 22:55:11 +0000 UTCI love it even more hearing how you say everything and learning the exact intonation of the characters!

2023-09-15 17:46:40 +0000 UTCThis rather sounds like the author is being held hostage by the characters.

2023-09-15 16:44:20 +0000 UTCI already liked Leo, but after that scene I love him. I am so excited for this to come out and I second the calls for a someday audiobook.

2023-09-15 16:35:11 +0000 UTCThere definitely needs to be a "Narated by the author" audiobook of JSMN.

2023-09-15 13:17:53 +0000 UTCDamn, I hope you are up for recording an audiobook because your voices for the characters are great. <3

2023-09-15 13:04:30 +0000 UTCExcerpts are wonderful. Can't wait for the book!
Taia Hartman
2023-09-15 13:02:47 +0000 UTCLove it! It's so nice to see you performing your characters again. Also, that tiktok.. ! Fits right in!
Ann Brookens
2023-09-15 12:59:04 +0000 UTCI loved reading this...and yes...in your voice (s). I'm refreshed on how all the characters break stereotype and trope and how it helps Caroline grow as a writer and person.
