Meant to post this earlier!
Narrators spent most of our time working alone, so when we actually get together, it’s like a big group hug.
Here is my latest “group hug” (aka group pic) on the last day of Johnny Heller’s New England Narrator Retreat.

My fam took a vacation this past week, but of course I prepped a book while we were gone. This was my view while prepping my next narration project. Can’t complain. :)

Y’all!! I'm an Audie Award Finalist in the category of Multi-Voiced Performance for the book THE GHOST SEQUENCES by AC Wise.
The Audie Award is a BFD award in the audiobook world. It's like the Hugo/Nebula/Stoker awards, but for audiobooks, rather than genre fiction.

It’s such a thrill and an honor when stuff like this happens. I love making authors happy. :)
(Context: my handle over at the Bird App is thekmhammond. I narrate for Tales to Terrify from time to time, since I love horror, and I also help out behind the scenes over there.)
