Listen to Part 1 of The Author for free today!
I really wanted to release the audiobook of The Author on Podiobooks because I have heard such great things about them but, unfortunately, they can only do an all or nothing scenario with this book. In other words, unless I give them all four parts at once, they cannot put the book on the site. This is a huge pain in the buttocks.
When I started doing this project, I very much wanted to do the “serialized” part of serialized audiobooks so having to wait until the whole book is done wasn’t exactly part of my plan. So I have decided to make the best of the situation. While I will still release the book through Podiobooks when it is completely done, you, my loyal blog readers, get a chance to listen to it ahead of time on TalkShoe. Episodes will be posted as they are released (which will be the second they are done) so you’ll get them before anyone else.
I will definitely still release the book on Podiobooks once the entire thing is done so if you prefer to wait, be my guest. If you want to listen to the first section now, you can listen above or download it from this link.
When you are finished listening, please let me know what you think. If you are on Twitter, please add the hashtag #theauthor to your comments so that I can easily find them or just share your thoughts below. If you enjoy it, please tell a friend. I am giving this book away to get my name and work out there so the more people read it, the better.
I would like to have a question and answer show on TalkShoe after each episode so if you would be interested, please make sure that you are subscribed to the blog so you don’t miss that announcement. Also, you can subscribe to this podcast on TalkShoe via iTunes or RSS so you will be sure to know the second new episodes are available.
I worked crazy hard on this audiobook version so I really hope you like it.
