In honor of my first fiction collection appearing on The 2023 Bram Stoker Awards® Preliminary Ballot, here is an audio sampler! Eleven of the seventeen stories have been podcasted, enough that I think we have an excellent representation of the book!
I am an avid podcast listener and audiobook listener, and it remains my dream to one day have an audio version of one of my books, but I love being able to present them in the varied voices here: Addison Peacock, Dagny Paul, Corinne Bachaud, Heather Thomas, Mary Murphy, Tori Danner, Sarah Ruth Thomas, Bryce Dahle and Sarah Mehra, Tina Connolly, Dani Daly, and Sofia Barker. Thank you to the narrators as well as the editors, producers, and hosts such as Meredith Morgenstern, Alex Hofelich, Kat Day, Chelsea Davis, and many more!
I am forever grateful for podcasts such as PseudoPod, Tales to Terrify, The Wicked Library, Centropic Oracle, Toasted Cake, and Escritoras de Urras and for being so welcoming to my stories! PseudoPod also published a long review of the book as part of updated production of “Resilience”.
