MIDWAY-- A FREE AUDIO ADVENTURE!

I've been sitting on this one awhile, much longer than I should have. No real reason other than my own hectic schedule and simply forgetting about it when I've been updating the site. But enough excuses. Several months back, I stepped into the recording studio with sound engineer David Burns to record a reading of Midway, one of the short stories that is part of my Frontier collection of stories. Midway was directed by Mike Gordon and Anthony Taylor, a couple of talented writer friends who helped keep me from reading too fast, which I kept wanting to do for some reason.

I think it turned out pretty well, although I hate hearing my own voice recorded. I've been told repeatedly that everyone feels that way so I guess I have to believe it. Heh.

Without further ado, you can now listen to Midway as written and performed by Bobby Nash here and the best news of all, it's completely FREE!

Bobby

The first appearance of my Book Talkers. Each one tells about my story in the book.

I really like this idea and I think it works well.

It also gives my table a nice look. I'll definitely do more of these.
