The ampersand won! And here's the cover. (What do you think?)
But I have even MORE news. (Sounds like one of those informercials. But wait, order now and....) I'm very pleased to announce that the Booktown Mysteries will soon (relatively speaking) be available as audiobooks (and downloadable). The recording for the first book, MURDER IS BINDING, was to have begun last week.It was very exciting to talk to the production manager at Deyan Audio about certain pronunciations. (Who knew Squamscot soda pop was actually pronounced Squamskit? And if you're in New Hampshire, why don't you try some of the local soda. It's de-lish!) He also said I'd be hearing from him about other questions they have as they get read to record the other books.
And I already know who my reader will be: the lovely (and lovely voiced) Cassandra Campbell. I've heard a sample of her work, and I think she'll do a great job performing the books.I know I can't wait to hop in my car and spend lots of gas money listening to the book on CDs.
Do you like to listen to audiobooks?
That is fantastic! I love audio books and can't wait to listen to yours. I listen to audio books every day. Sometimes I have two or three going at once (in the car on CD, in my ears on the MP3 player and on my computer while at work). I have never heard of that narrator but I'm sure she'll do great.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the cover as well.

Congratulations on the audio books!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the cover!
I love this cover. It speaks to me and all I want to do right now is go out and buy this book. I also like the details..such as, whose photo is that on the bookcase?
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the audio books. I don't listen to them, but my friend does so I'll definitely point her towards your books.
Again, congrats on the book cover and the ampersand is perfect.
Have a great Wednesday.
Congratulations Lorna! The cover looks great--and I know all your fans will be pleased to have your books on audio.
ReplyDeleteWonderful! Fantastic! Congratulations...and what fun it will be to lisen to your books!
ReplyDelete(Love the cover, too...yay.)
Oh Excellent! I spend a lot of time in the car and audiobooks are my favorite!! Unlike music they never make me sleepy since I have to pay attention to follow the story and if I have to get distracted by some pesky driving situation, I can always back up to listen again!

I am so pleased about the audio books. I have so much knitting and crocheting to catch up on that I'm spending more time with audios than with real books....at least for now. This is great news.
ReplyDeleteI love the cover of your new book. Looking forward to reading it when it comes out.
ReplyDeleteLove the cover! And Miss Marple getting ready for her tea. I, too, want to know who's in the photo. Is this a clue in the new book?
ReplyDeletePrefer the ampersand! Yea!!
Great news on the audiobooks! Guess I'll have to invest in some once yours comes out. Are your books going to be available to the Barnes & Noble Book Nook? Mine is on its way from B&N & I'd LOVE to be able to download your books!!
I do like your cover very much and yes, I love listening to audiobooks on my way to work and when I am out running errands. They are also great for traveling and even for listening to when I go to bed.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the cover. August seems so far way :(
ReplyDeleteLove the cover, best one yet! I think the ampersand is more fitting than the word. Looks better in the title format, too.
