December Story and Announcement

Hello everyone! This is the cover for December’s short story, which CSA members will have received a link to earlier this week. It’s about a girl who becomes a hero by saving her world’s version of a dugong.

It is also the last monthly short story for… a while.

Because starting in January 2023 I’ll be bringing CSA members monthly audiobooks. Well, or parts of one. Here’s the juice:

I’ve wanted to make audiobooks of my stories for a long time. I love doing voices and narrating my fiction. Problem? Time. (Of course time.) Solution? Become answerable to my CSA members! So starting January instead of a monthly eBook, you’ll get a monthly Raw Audio Special. These will be one chapter (or one short story) of a book, delivered by a link just like the eBooks. They will not be edited beyond the pure basics, because the point here is to get me recording and sharing, not spending hours trimming off my sssses. I can do that after I have the raw audio for a whole book ready to release to the public. Which, when the finished audiobook is ready, all current CSA members will get a copy—just like new releases of eBooks.

Not an audio person? Not a problem! Once I get a chunk of audio recorded I’ll go back to sending out monthly eBooks. So either way you get a bit of story every month. But I’m excited to start recording again, and if you want to hear some of what’s to come, go check out the audio specials on Heliopause that I did for Driving Arcana Wheel 3.

For my first audio special project I’ll be recording Professor Odd: the Complete Season One, one episode per month, over the first half of 2023. I’m excited, and I hope you’re excited, too!
