PLEASE SUPPORT MY WORK
Researching, reading, re-reading, recording, mixing, uploading, promoting each of these short story audio presentations takes many hours - possibly more than you'd imagine - and I do it because I enjoy it and for the enjoyment I aim to give others. I know that some people seek out audiobooks like mine because they are learning English, others because they just like to be read to, even more because they find it helps them sleep (I'm not offended!).
If I have made your day or night more tolerable by soundtracking your commute or domestic chores, or just providing entertainment, please consider making a one-time donation or becoming a patron.
