Recording the Draft

Here’s a novel challenge: I’m finalizing the blurbs–those “this is an awesome book: you should read it!” quotes you get on the back cover of books–for Future Rising, and I’ve just been told “sure” by a writer I really admire … “but you’ll need to send me an audiobook version to listen to” (there is a legit reason for this).

Of course, I don’t have an audiobook version yet – that won’t be out until the book launches. But I’m so excited by the possibility of getting this person’s endorsement that I’m about to spend the weekend recording the equivalent of a draft audiobook.

This is, of course, a stir-crazy idea, and definitely not one that any sane person would even contemplate.

I’ll let you know how it goes!
