Autumnal Tints
One of the nice things about editing a blog is you can post whatever you darn well want.
Remember how Jay was always urging us to support new artists? Well, two neighbors of mine up in the Catskills where I have my summer home, a young couple with two small children, have gone into the audiobook business. They have self-produced two titles already.
Dear family, friends and colleagues,This time we have produced a one-CD package of Henry David Thoreau's classic nature essay, Autumnal Tints. It's perfect for leaf-peeping in the upcoming season, though we hesitate to think about autumn too soon (we only get about 2 months of warm weather here in the Catskills!). We think it has a similar feel to the Beston audiobook we published last year, and we're proud to report that it has already been chosen as a 2008 Editors' Pick by Library Journal magazine.
If you have a moment and want to check out our website (thank you, Joe), see the handsome cover art (thank you, Mick), and hear an audio clip, visit silverhollowaudio.com. And, of course, if you're interested in hearing the whole thing, they're available on our site, as well as through Amazon, B&N.com, or by special order from your local indie bookseller. For the technologically-minded, a downloadable edition is now available through our site, too.
Happy Rest-of-Summer!
