I’m delighted to announce, just in time for the holidays, The House on Liberty Street is now available in audiobook format. The super talented and silky-voiced Jennifer March, matriarch of Jen’s Voices and founder of Not Your Mother’s Story Time and Petaluma Reader’s Theatre spent countless hours in her Sonoma County sound booth narrating Adamaria and Gracie’s story, which takes place in Petaluma between the afternoon of Christmas Eve and the early evening of Christmas Day, 2019.
It’s been a big adventure putting my stories into print and now, a new leap of faith in adapting to audio. Many of you have asked for audio and I listened. I’ve known Jennifer for many years and was pleased to hear from her that she had made the seque into audiobook narration, the ideal platform for her talents as an actor, reader’s theatre performer and radio voice.
The fact that we both live and work in Petaluma, CA, where The House on Liberty Street is set, sealed the deal with Jennifer being the perfect narrator for this story. Having collaborated with Petaluman Gail Foulkes on the cover art, it makes for a perfect trifecta to bring Jennifer into this local, all-woman team.
I'm enthralled in Jennifer’s storytelling, almost forgetting that it was me who wrote the story!
There are many platforms to purchase audiobooks from but AMPlify Audio is the spot launch my first audiobook to reside in that it is a site specifically developed to support its authors being paid a decent share of the audiobook’s royalties, unlike most other platforms.
I was introduced to AMPlify Audio through BAIPA (Bay Area Independent Publisher’s Group), of which I’m a member. When you buy my audiobook from AMPlify Audio, think of it as buying local. As we've all become more aware during the Writer's Strike this year, it's an absolute injustice that writers typically receive extremely low reimbursement for their creations. I will probably go wide on other platforms after the holidays, but for now, I warmly invite you to buy directly through the AMPlify Audio platform and take advantage of the $5 discount code as a special thank you for subscribing to my newsletter.
I’ll be doing quite a bit of marketing of the audiobook over the next few months as a great story to listen to in a comfy armchair by the fire this fall and winter, or while you and family and friends are traveling over the holidays.
Thanks to everyone who has read The House on Liberty Street in print or ebook and for the many local bookgroups who have selected my book this past year. I'm getting very busy with bookgroup dates for the coming few months. It's fantastic. I can't wait for you all to share the audiobook with readers around the world who may not be able to travel to Petaluma for the holidays!
