writes about war from a young person's view #bannedbyrussia
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.
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.
When the war in Ukraine began, Jennifer Jill Araya, the voice actor for the audio editions of Making Bombs for Hitler and Stolen Girl, approached me with empathy and an idea. She told me about a project that the Professional Audiobook Narrators’ Association was putting together, which was an audio anthology of Ukraine-related stories, with the proceeds going to support artists in Ukraine. She asked if I might have a work that she could be the voice actor for, with both of us donating our efforts to the project. I was grateful for the opportunity to assist. My story, The Rings, is set during the Holodomor. Thank you, Jennifer. Thank you, to all of the creators who contributed to this massive project. Press release is below.
