9,897!

Wow. More guilt. I've only rerecorded 3 of the 5 episodes that need rerecording. It's just really hard as life will intrude. I WILL get that done, though. Obviously people are happy to put up with a little bit of crappiness to hear Kate's skills with the pen. I just don't want to feel like I've detracted from the story in any way and so that I can feel comfortable pointing people towards the site without feeling that little niggling of guilt I get because of the initial bad microphone.

It's definitely one of my New Year's resolutions.

Cate's will be, no doubt to FINALLY, decide on a final draft of her new book.

We made it onto the charts! #10 on "Today's top subscriptions"

6,997 downloads! I wonder what happened? As far as I know Catey and I haven't been promoing so it must be word of mouth.

Here's the latest:

By: Maggie MaeI just wanted to say that I love this book. I loved the characters, the plot and especially the love scenes! I was surprised at how much I actually got into the whole story and was yelling at the characters throughout. Absolutely loved it.

Thanks Maggie. I know what you mean. I went through the roller coaster of emotions, at times loving and respecting and hating and being sick about the characters. It just goes to show what a great author Cate is, when you think about the fact that these are all paper people that don't exist, but we can relate or totally be disgusted or secretly love them in all their flawed glory.

Girls, thank you!
It's been a wild ride indeed, and I loved every minuteof it.  It is a fun, fast paced, well written/narrated and bullshit free book that took "chick lit" to another level.  I sure hope to hear from you again very soon! I'd also like to put my money where my mouth is, but, unfortunately, paypal isn't the best way to do it here in my country.

Kisses from your faithful listener lol

Hey Carla girl,

It's been fun.  Big hug. I hope Catey keeps putting them up.  I wish she'd get her work taken up by an agent since she's too scared/shy/lazy to do it herself.   I hope she gives me the next book soon or attempts to do it herself this time.  We can only keep our fingers crossed.

"I'm definitely not a chick lit fan, nor romance, or anything closely related.  Usually it's sci-fi, horror and suspense for me, but this book was a great listen.  The characters were eccentric and the plot was a wild roller coaster".

Well, it's been a wild ride fer me as well.  I've enjoyed so much of the process.  Catey,  you finally got one of your books up and people are enjoying it, which is what I wanted for you since you're too darn lazy to do other things with it.  

I hope some agent out there "reads" it and sees what a waste of talent is going on and snaps you up. In the end, we didn't receive any donations and I feel a little guilty that your book's not at least up on the charts for "best reviews" cuz of my bad qualilty mic (though I intend to fix that by rerecording the first few episodes again when time permits) but it's up and I'm proud of us.  

All the lovely readers that voted and posted comments.  Big hug!  It kept me going.  Thank you.

The end.

Wow.  We hit the 4000th download and we're not even up on the main page.  Could it be word of mouth?  Hmmm.  Who knows.  The final episode is tremendously long.  It's looking like an hour.  I haven't finished editing and it stands at  an hour 20 minutes.  I'm not sure it will be up by Thursday...maybe Friday.  In a perfect world it would have been 2 episodes but we miscalculated how long the last episode would be so....

PS  If you haven't given the book a rating, please do so now.  Only 2 more ratings and we can ass out a sci fi little boy jerk off book.  Come one ladies and experimental gents.  In the spirit of embracing diversity and amplifying the podiobooks site.  Get it up there!  Stand and be counted!  Your vote counts etc.!
