The Ten Reminders Audiobooks are here. Like I said in my newsletter, I spent all my quarantine time praying and listening. One of the things I was led to do, was to record my audiobooks. Two of them are out and I’m waiting to get the third one out too.
Recording Ten Reminders Audiobooks
Needless to say, I’m done recording. Two audiobooks are now available at 49 different vendors. So wherever you get your audiobooks, you’ll find it there. I’m also going to be putting it up for direct sale on my website in a few weeks.
I’m comfortable with voice recording. I’ve done it before for medical clients and their work. However, I’ve always done that at a studio. So doing this in a hotel room was a bit of a challenge.
And everything that could go wrong, did go wrong. While I started recording Ten Reminders for the Single Christian Woman, the roof started leaking. A lot! Imagine that, the roof of the Hilton!!!
I had to use a bucket and every time a drop hit the bucket, the sound caught on the recorder. I used towels to dampen the sound.
Then the neighboring room played their TV so loud that I recorded only between 1-5 am. The phone would ring; reception, my mother and temperature check at the door. It was like a 100m sprint with hurdles.
At one point, the sound engineer I was supposed to work with said the audio was just not salvageable. I prayed again and cried bitterly after four hours of recording. I kept asking God why he was putting me through such an ordeal.
Again the Holy Spirit kept leading me to continue. I wrote to another sound engineer and even told the Lord, if he said no, that would be it. And Jonathan, the guy who worked on the books was so patient despite all the issues with the recording. He said we could use it.
I started recording again until all three books were completed. Phew. This stuff was not easy. And the problems while being stuck in a single room for so many days were too many to count. The only thing that kept me sane was my Bible and the fact that I was praying with my mother on the phone twice and sometimes thrice a day.
One More To Go
While I’m done recording, I’m waiting to edit the covers and create the files before we can submit them for the third book.
It’s been a tiring few weeks. As the pandemic rages on and movement is so limited. I’ve used all my free time to pray. I’ve also been reading voraciously. And writing too.
I have a book release in July 2021. And I’m beginning to lay the groundwork for the next book in the TEN REMINDERS series.
It might seem like a breeze but I know how much prayer has gone into these Ten Reminders audiobooks. It’s been a labor of love. And by God’s grace I’ve come this far despite all the disappointments this season.
