Good night! #3GoodThings
1. Closed my fitness rings with flying colors and got over 13,000 steps in today.
2. Discovered today that the alarm for low sugar levels will defo wake me up during the night. Man, that’s loud but that’s good.
3. Listened to more of that book through the Echo speakers using the Kindle assistive reader and found out I was way off about who did it! I will finish the book tomorrow. If I’m listening to a Kindle book being read by the Kindle assistive reader, does that make it an audio book? 🤷‍♀️
Sleep well and may your dreams take you to the stars. 🤗🫶❤️🫂 #GoodNight #Fitness #AudioBook

Started The Swallows by Lisa Lutz, and I'm already 20% into it and liking it so far. It's like an anti-Dead Poets Society, but where DPS kind of ignored private school cliques, - all the students seemed to mostly get along - Lutz leans in hard and it's far more interesting (don't get me wrong: I ❤️ Dead Poets Society). My main complaint is that the long list of characters - students and teachers - is hard to track in the #audiobook. #Bookstodon #Books #AmReading #FridayReads @bookstodon #Fiction

Five years ago, "Waywords-as-concept" joined with a project by 𝘄𝗮𝘆𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗱𝘀&𝗺𝗲𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻𝘀 (kismet, I know!) to produce an experimental reading/audiobook/music project on James Joyce's 𝘍𝘪𝘯𝘯𝘦𝘨𝘢𝘯𝘴 𝘞𝘢𝘬𝘦. The result, two cuts from the vast work, is still a fun listen!

Thank you to the #ADHD, #Dyslexic and #VisionImpaired people here on mastadon who asked for audiobooks of my writings. The more people tell me their access needs, the better position I am in to encourage/ convince my publishers to make my work #Accessible.

Delighted my latest publisher agreed to make an #Audiobook of Wired Our Own Way; An Anthology of #Autistic Irish voices, which will be released tomorrow. Not sure all the platforms it will be on yet.

Jede Nacht treibt es den Laternenanzünder Jan zurück in den Prager Ortsteil Žižkov, vorbei am Atelier der eigenbrötlerischen Künstlerin Jitka, für die er schon seit Längerem schwärmt, ohne dass sie ihn jedoch bemerkt. Aber dann bekommt er eine unverhoffte Einladung zu einer ungewöhnlichen Vernissage.

Ein wunderbar gelesenes Hörbuch nach einer Geschichte von Coco Eberhardt.

I’ve just started a new audiobook, inspired by my rewatch of Mad Men, which is all about the women who rose to the top at department stores on 5th Avenue and it’s addictive! So fascinating to read all about how these huge stores were run, with in house ad agencies, comparison shoppers snooping on the competition and perks like cheap holidays and college courses in interior design and merchandising. The shop floor women weren’t paid any more than factory workers though and working hours were long #bookstodon #AmReading #audiobook
