Very thrilled that Jennifer Jill Araya has been nominated for a SOVAS award for her voice performance of my Holodomor short story, The Rings, which is part of the Ukraine Relief Anthology, A Word is not a Sparrow. Congratulations to Jennifer Jill and all of the voice performers and authors who donated their time and expertise to this Ukraine relief project.
Love having the opportunity to speak the backmatter and acknowledgements for the audio editions of my books. Today, I did that for Kidnapped from Ukraine: Under Attack, Scholastic. Thank you, Will Crann at Catherine North Studios in Hamilton! I have deep respect for professional narrators who do this all the time.
The audio edition of The War Below will be released on Sept 24th, 2024 by Tantor Audio, with Kyle Tate as narrator. Very thrilled about this! Thank you Maral Maclaghan, Scholastic Canada rights manager extraordinaire!
This audio anthology of Ukrainian stories is a fundraiser for Ukrainian relief. It will be released on June 11, but can be pre-ordered with this link.
