Audiobook for you! (It's free!)

Published: Thu, 12/07/17

Surprise! I made something for you...

It's an audiobook!

It's 53 minutes long. It's free. You can listen here: http://bit.ly/survive-free-audiobook

You'll hear me reading a few selected stories from my new book, You're Going to Survive.

You'll also hear some uplifting messages from a few of my friends and colleagues—little pep talks and love notes for your ears.

If you're having a stressful week... if you're feeling discouraged about your career, your income, or a project that didn't work out exactly the way you'd hoped... or, if you could just use a big hug right now... then I think you'll enjoy this audiobook. Curl up with your headphones and enjoy!

. . .

You're Going to Survive is being released on December 15th in paperback and Kindle. You can order it on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Books-A-Million, and Indiebound. Look for it at your local bookstore, too. I hope you love it!

PS. If you enjoy the free audiobook and want even more stuff to listen to... I've been on a bunch of podcasts recently, including: The First Four Years • Grace and Grit • Claim the Stage • Freedom Seeker • Creating Space • Real Talk Radio • I feel so honored to be a guest on those shows! Hooray for podcasts! Ears, all ye rejoice!

PPS. Creating a book takes an entire village of love. I want to extend a huge THANK YOU to... my editor Brenda Knight at Mango Publishing for the relentless positivity and support... Dennis Carter at Falcon Recording Studios for making the audiobook sound awesome... to the incredible people who allowed me to interview them for the book, and who generously shared their stories, including: Ben Wendel • Brandon Weeks • Dale Franzen • Ellen Fondiler • L’Erin Alta • Maria Ross • Melinda Massie • Melissa Cassera • Niki Driscoll • Paul Jarvis • Robert Hartwell • Shauna Haider • Shelley Cohen • Susan Hyatt and her daughter Cora • Theresa Reed • And of course, THANK YOU for reading this email in the midst of your (no doubt) very busy week. I have the most loving, kind, supportive Internet-family and I appreciate you so much.

PPPS. Music recommendations! I've been listening to this playlist all week. So energizing! And this one is great for when you want to curl up and chill out. And Luke Bryan released a new country album and somehow I missed this very important news! Hooray! I can't wait to listen! (What would we do without music?)
