I enjoy books, but I seem to have a diminishing amount of downtime (or quiet time) to get through one efficiently. My reading time is mostly during those sleepless hours in the middle of the night, which was the only time my mind was settled enough to read something non-work related. In recent years, I've started listening to audiobooks to get my fix while I’m commuting to work. However, now that (like many people) I’m working from home, I don’t even have that time. So, I’ve been listening to audiobooks when modding, cleaning, or repairing my games. It helps break up the tedium and, at times, the frustration of your work. I’m sure some of you are already doing this.

So, here’s an opportunity to support a fellow Pinsider (me ) and make working on your pins a little extra enjoyable! I have a science fiction/fantasy audiobook out on Amazon/Audible - Tolagon. My professionally narrated audiobook for Tolagon was just released two weeks ago, and the sequel, The Queen Protocol, is currently in production. I’d expect it to be ready sometime in late May.

For those interested, I have a limited number of Audible promo codes for a complimentary copy I can give away, provided you are willing to leave an honest review on Amazon when you’re finished. Just send me a PM. I would love to hear the community’s thoughts/feedback (good or bad).

Thank you!

Side note - I realized that once I wrote this post and read over it a few times, one of the first questions people will have is, “so you found time to write a book series?” Haha, yes, I would have the same thought. The truth is, I’ve sacrificed much of my reading time for writing over the years (I’m embarrassed to say how many). Yet another great benefit of audiobooks!

Sunday bump for anyone interested in a supercool free audiobook!

I worked in my backyard yesterday for a few hours with my phone in my pocket, listening to 'The Stand' by the great Steven King. I'm no Steven King, but if you like sci-fi/fantasy, I think there's a good possibility you'll enjoy my series.
