Occasionally, other Podiobook authors ask for help in promoting their titles. Since I don’t do a regular podcast, the best I can do is give them a plug here and put their promo up for you to listen to.
The Prophet of Panamindorah is from one of the “new kids” coming along in the Podiobooks block and I think she’s produced a really nice fantasy novel here. If you like fantasy, give her a try. Her reading is pretty darn good and the audio quality is certainly a step up from the average first time PodioAuthor.

Updated: Oops! Jack called me on the lack of link love for the title. I figured everybody must have Podiobooks on a bookmark at this point but for those who don’t, you can find the book at Podiobooks.
Cool… Glad to hear about new writter. Please add links so we can click over to add there book to are lists. I look for to hearing it!
I talked to a podcast talk author who brazenly said that their only three women in podcast fiction. Mur, Christiana, Pip… I know there’s a lot more and I’m glad to see more out there.
Hello, Jack. Thanks for your interest! I’ve noticed the dearth of female podcasters, too. I think it’s partially due to lower voices being easier to hear and listen to. A man’s voice generally carries better over road noise, and many people listen in the car. Podcasting a novel is a huge time commitment. Usually only the author is willing to make that time commitment, so if the author doesn’t have a carrying voice, that can be a problem.
I had this conversation with Nathan on the mentorship forums actually, and I know he thinks there are just fewer girl geeks. Maybe he’s right. :) Anyway, he was awfully helpful when I was learning to use Audacity. Vote for him in next year’s Parsecs!
thanks for passing on the recommendation. I’m enjoying it.
