Once again, I must apologise for the long delay since last posting here; May looks to have been a very slow and quiet month - but no indeed, far from it! May was a very busy month of audio work and if anything, June is even busier. There's so much I would like to be able to say here and now, but as regular readers will know, I'm obliged to remain silent on professional projects until details are made available by production companies or publishing houses. It's quite understandable; if a company is potentially spending significantly on advertising campaigns, they really don't want people like me 'jumping the gun'. There's some very exciting stuff in the pipeline, though I shall have to excercise a little restraint, curb my enthusiasm and hold fire until the appropriate time, before I can tell you all about it.
Sometimes of course, information becomes available way before any publicity campaigns are officially launched and details of M.W. Craven's latest novel, Black Summer, have been evident on the internet for some time. Publication in all formats is scheduled for 20th June, though I can now reveal details of the story, along with an audio trailer:
Black Summer by M.W. Craven:
After The Puppet Show, a new storm is coming....
He's currently serving a life sentence for the brutal murder of his daughter, Elizabeth. Her body was never found, and Keaton was convicted largely on the testimony of Detective Sergeant Washington Poe.
So when a young woman staggers into a remote police station with irrefutable evidence that she is Elizabeth Keaton, Poe finds himself on the wrong end of an investigation, one that could cost him much more than his career.
Helped by the only person he trusts, the brilliant but socially awkward Tilly Bradshaw, Poe races to answer the only question that matters: how can someone be both dead and alive at the same time?
And then Elizabeth goes missing again - and all paths of investigation lead back to Poe.
Unabridged audio book Narrated by John Banks and Produced by Neil Gardner

Despite a good deal of confusion over the last couple of years, it appears that the unabridged NRSV Bible I narrated for SPCK and produced by Neil Gardner at Ladbroke Audio, is now, finally, available as an app; I downloaded it a few days ago and it seems to work fine.
I may be more inclined to listen to the recording than you, though if you have a spare 74 hours or so, you could zip through it along with me!

Before signing off, I must express my sincere gratitude and appreciation to the more than a quarter of a million people who have visited this site; "thank you!" - it would all be pointless without you!
...all for now; more just as soon as it happens!
