July 2019

Well June is past and July is upon us. That means legalized explosives where I live. If I survive the 4th of July, I'm sure you will all be happy. June was a quiet month, the only big news was AW7 Audio from Podium publishing went live on the 25th. Here's the link:
DARKHAND

What's coming in July besides me playing with explosives? Well let's get this month rolling shall we.

First Binding Words 3: Hearthglen is live and here are the most common links for it.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07TRJQZ3G

The good news to go along with that book release, is that Andrea Parsneau will be picking the audio narration back up. That's right folks we still get Andie for this series, celebrate with me. The bad news for that though is Andie is swamped with work, which is great for her. Andie is my overall top narrator and I try to get her to do all my books, sadly as stated above she is swamped with work, because she is amazing. What that means for us is that she won't start recording the audio until August, which will push the audio being live into late September or even early October. I'm okay with the wait though, because Andie will make it well worth the wait.

And the audio front which has dominated this blog post so far, July will also see the release of AG4: Elven Accord. I don't have a date for it yet, because that's at the whim of ACX and Audible. Tess Irondale reprises her role as the narrator of that series. Tess had big shoes to step into when she took over the series when Andie stepped away from it, but she did an amazing job, and does so again with this book. Tess will be the narrator for the series going forward, unless something unforeseen happens.

That was all the super big news. But we still have a few odds and ends to hit up.

The next Live Chat on Facebook will be July 15th, at 5 P.M. PST, or is that PDT now? Meh you get the idea. I'll be giving away prizes as normal, and answering questions and generally chatting with you all to thank you for being fans.

Another note, is that I've booked room and flight plans for Dragoncon. I will be there this year, it was a little up in the air for a couple of months, but I'm going to make it now. This will be touched upon again in the next two months blogs as well. More so as Septembers will probably be a little late because of Dragoncon.

That's all I can think of for this month. Thanks for giving me a few minutes of your time, I hope you enjoy all the audio goodness as well as BW3: Hearthglen.

Until next month,
Daniel Schinhofen
