The Silence of Trees is Available as an Audiobook!

Posted on

You may recall a few months ago, when I posted a Storify link to Xe Sands’ live-tweeting of my novel, THE SILENCE OF TREES.  You can see the story here.

I love audiobooks, and it really is a dream-come-true to have THE SILENCE OF TREES in this form. I always heard the protagonist Nadya’s voice in my ear as I was writing it–it’s very much an story told to someone (ironic for a character who has so many secrets). I’m delighted that Xe was the woman to bring Nadya to life!

Now THE SILENCE OF TREES has finally been released on audiobook by Iambik Audio, narrated by Xe Sands!

You can purchase it on the Iambik website, and it will be on Audible in a few weeks’ time. (I’ll post when it’s up!)

In the meantime, we are getting ready to offer a unique promotion for the kick off of the audiobook.  I’ll post details soon!

Spread the word, and I hope that you enjoy it!

Live-Tweeting The Silence of Trees With Xe Sands

Posted on

As I mentioned in an earlier post, Iambik Audio is producing the audiobook for The Silence of Trees.

After reviewing auditions, we’ve chosen for our narrator the talented Xe Sands!

I’m so excited to hear her reading of my novel. In preparation for her narration, she’s reading The Silence of Trees and live-tweeting the process.

You can follow along by following her on twitter: @xesands or by searching the hashtag #silenceoftrees

Here’s a taste of her tweets so far:

“What are we in war? Things to be oved, broken, used, thrown away…” Oh my heart breaks for you, vorozhka. #silenceoftrees
 The simplicity and overwhelming passions of youth! With our circle so small, we think questions of love the be all/end all #silenceoftrees
“all the milk of heaven…” – gracious, what a lovely image of a full moon. Don’t think I’ll look at it the same way again. #silenceoftrees
“This sad melody, so soft & familiar, that slid across my body & pulled at my chest w/bittersweet secrets…” #silenceoftrees
 So beautifully painted – can almost feel the movement of the dvorovyi around me, the wind whipping through my hair… #silenceoftrees
More to come!
