Out today on Audible & iTunes: Out of Whack by KN Gould. Had a blast narrating this eerie, slow-burn suspense—equal parts unsettling and impossible to put down. If haunted houses, strange neighbors, and creeping dread are your thing… you’re in for a ride.

Cover of the audiobook Out of Whack by KN Gould, narrated by Dana P. Rowe. The image has a dark, ominous, sepia-toned color scheme. On the right stands a weathered, abandoned farmhouse with broken windows and a sagging porch, shrouded in eerie shadow. A flock of black birds takes flight above the house, adding to the unsettling atmosphere. On the left, a lone silhouette of a man walks along a dirt path through tall, dry grass toward the house. Dark, swirling storm clouds loom in the sky, creating a sense of tension and foreboding. The title “Out of Whack” is prominently displayed in large white serif font at the top center. Below, the credits read: “Written by KN Gould” and “Narrated by Dana P. Rowe” in a matching serif typeface.

Delighted to share that Fathers of the Bride is now available on Audible and iTunes. Marshall Thornton’s writing is a joy to narrate—funny, heartfelt, & full of charm. I had a great time bringing these characters to life. Hope you’ll give it a listen. #audiobooks #booksky #indieAuthors #narrator

Square audiobook cover for Fathers of the Bride by Lambda Award-winner Marshall Thornton, narrated by Dana P. Rowe. The title is written in large pink capital letters against a sparkling blue background with starbursts and glowing orbs. On the right side, there is a cartoon-style illustration of a bride in a white gown holding a bouquet, smiling over her shoulder. The vibe is whimsical and fun.

“Things native English speakers know, but don’t know we know.” Confession time 🤓 — I’m a total language geek. I love this stuff.

ALT TXT:
A tweet by Matthew Anderson (@MattAndersonBBC) reads: “Things native English speakers know, but don’t know we know:” Below the tweet is a photo of a book excerpt explaining adjective order rules in English. The text states that adjectives must follow a set sequence: opinion, size, age, shape, color, origin, material, purpose, then noun. It gives the example: “a lovely little old rectangular green French silver whittling knife.” The text warns that breaking this order makes sentences sound chaotic and odd, even to native speakers. The excerpt humorously concludes that, because size comes before color, “green great dragons” can’t exist. The tweet shows 48,848 retweets and 70,041 likes. #narrating #authors #booksky #audiobooks #mystery

Thanks for putting all that out there, NellieGwynn! And thanks for this image. So good and true.

A hand-drawn, textured quote illustration on a beige paper background with vibrant colors and geometric accents. The text reads:

"People start to heal the moment they feel heard."
– Cheryl Richardson

The word "HEAL" is emphasized with bold, capitalized letters decorated in teal, purple, and orange patterns featuring swirls, dots, and geometric designs. The word "HEARD" is similarly bold, with an orange fill and black outlines.

Laryngitis for a narrator & coach? 🗣️🔇 Ughhhh...Universe, you’re hilarious. 😅 A week of whispers has reminded me that rest *can* be productive. 💡 And apparently, "finishing the year strong" means lots of naps. 🛌✨ #winning 🙌🏆✨ Anyone else getting reminders to rest instead of rush? 🙋‍♂️✨

White text on a black background reads: "This is your reminder to stop stressing to 'finish the year off strong.' You can finish it off grateful, relaxed, slowly, peacefully. The idea that we always need to 'be doing' and 'achieving' only creates cycles of anxiety. Rushing will not solve your problems. Rest will." #narrating #narrator #audiobooks #AudioBook #VoiceActors #authors #booksky #WritingCommunity 🌈📚💙📚 #AudiobookNarrator
