Hello My Happy People!
I hope you had a fantastic weekend. I spent most of my time working on the beta version of the audio book. I started by piecing together all the bits where I had read from Into the West: The Orphan Train at the end of my podcasts and was shocked to realized not only did I skip a few pages from chapter three but I missed the entire second chapter! I worry about myself sometimes.
But the good news is, the entire book will be available in the beta version of this audiobook so you will get to hear all the bits I skipped in my podcast. The problem is I was reading it from my formatting program on the computer so I was not able to put bookmarks in to hold my place. I think if I decide to do this again with another book, I will just open it in a PDF format on the desktop so I can bookmark exactly where I stop.
It is at time like these that I am forever thankful that I do not get embarrassed because this would have a doozy! But ... what are you gonna do? Don't cry over spilt milk, que sera sera and all of that.
I came online today to quickly write this blog then jump right back into recording the last bits of the beta audiobook so I can focus all of my energy on finishing Into the West: Family Ties. The characters had been quiet for so long I had started missing them, but something woke them up and they are beginning to get annoying. So I need to write out the last bit of this story to quiet them all back down. I know that kind of makes me sound crazy, but I'm okay with that. Being a little crazy makes life more fun.
I am adding some music to the audiobook to lead in and end the chapters. I would like to add a few sound effect too, but that will have to come in the final version.
