I'm freshly back from a quick trip to New England where I rediscovered (relatively) cool temperatures and deep green forests. I'd say I came back refreshed but it was a wedding with an open bar and the wrong team won the Stanley Cup this year, so... yeah.
I'm super stoked to thank both Sara J. and Keiani for becoming our most recent Individual Supporters! Seriously—your small annual contribution of less than $25 is quite helpful, and I appreciate your support. Though, in the full spirit of transparency, that brings the total number of Individual Supporters and Supporting Creative Shops to 33. Thirty-three. All of whom I'm quite thankful of. But, as you can see, I could use a few more. So, if you have a spare $25 burning a hole in your pocket, please check out the Support page and make your choice.
Also, I need to express my thanks for my friends at Headliner. That's the app I use to create all of the audiograms from the trailers of recently-complete shows that are posted to our YouTube channel. No, the videos don't have high view counts, and YouTube isn't the best way to consume audio fiction. But I've been pleasantly surprised how many times these videos are served by "the algorithm," so I'll keep it up with the help of my friends at Headliner.
Let's get into it, shall we?
