Happy Wednesday Scribblers, have I got some exciting news to share this week. As the subject says, I have, not one, but two, new audiobooks coming out in the next couple of months. First, coming out in time for Halloween is my highly received short story, The Reunion. And returning to provide his voice to this story is the wonderfully talented Steve Connor (find him here), who did the audio narration for T.A.D.-The Angel of Death (find the audiobook here and the book here). The Reunion was the very first story of mine that NineStar Press published (find the eBook here). So, having it coming out in audiobook format is thrilling. The story revolves around a group of friends who meet up once a year, in their abandoned town of Lakeview. The Reunion is a story full of unique wonderful characters that share a tragic past.
Here is the blurb:
It’s been twenty years since the quiet Midwestern town of Lakeview was struck by tragedy. But every year, on the anniversary of the tragic event, Teddy returns home for ‘The Reunion’. Lakeview, like Teddy, has secrets and not all mysteries should come to light.
If ghost stories aren’t your thing, then coming out in audiobook in time for Christmas is my number one ranked Queer Holiday Reads, short story A Dragon for Christmas (click here to see the stories listing). This holiday classic revolves around Carmen as she struggles to get a dragon for Christmas. This is a sweet story involving growing up, love and, yes, dragons (find the eBook here). I will share more details about the brilliant narrator latter, but trust me, she is the voice of Carmen and I can’t be more excited for you to hear her work.
Here is the blurb:
Carmen is eleven years old and wants to get her dragon. Since she was seven years old, she understood two things. One, she was going to be the strongest Dragon Keeper there ever was. The second was that she was going to marry her best friend, Mattie.
As Christmas approaches, the magical charms Carmen has to use to fight off her curse are taking a toll on her health. But that can’t stop her from taking her final test to become a Dragon Keeper. If she passes her test, she gets her dragon, if not, she has to start all over relying on different magical charms to fight the curse for her. That is something Carmen doesn’t want to have to go through. The testing is difficult and charms make her sick. Carmen has decided that if she doesn’t get her dragon, this Christmas, she’s not going to go for a third attempt, even if that means she can’t marry Mattie when she grows up.
Well, that is my quick update for today. Until next time, have a great week.
