I've been very lucky in the past few weeks. I've had the distinct pleasure of producing audiobooks with some of the fine talent we have on this board. And today, we're releasing a book narrated by the ever-amazing Bruce Miles. Listen to a sample at http://springbrookaudio.com/2011/04/26/the-dirty-parts-of-the-bible-by-sam-torode/
Bruce has the absolute perfect voice for this book (which is not nearly as blasphemous as the title sounds. It's actually a charming coming-of-age story).

That was awesome!
I'm ashamed to admit that I usually don't buy audiobooks (I know...GASP!  ), but I was pretty bummed when the sample was over and wanted to hear the rest. I may have to get that one

Jeff, you're and amazingly resourceful and determined man.
You're making dreams come true not only for yourself, but for others.
You're not a Fairy Godfather with a magic wand, I know— you're more like an Audiobook Explorer, piloting the ship of success thru water that was uncharted until you got there.
Sorry for the lame allusion— I just want to tell you how thrilling it is to watch the course of your career.

Wow, Deebs, thanks for the kind words. A lot of people (including yourself) have been incredibly supportive over the years. The least I can do is pay it back and forward a bit.

bruce is my hero.
ALSO - i agree with deebs. maybe not so gushy ... but jeff, you were placed in a sphincter-tightening situation recently - made a choice - worked hard - thought outside the box and made it work for you & your family. i've got nothing but respect for that.

That Bruce is so cool! I love the "throw-away" humour. DB is right, we're all very proud of you Jeff.

Stellar job from Mr. Miles (as always)! And Jeffrey, with your continued success in audiobook publishing you should seriously consider changing your name to Paige Turner! Unless the whole gender modification thing is an issue...

Excellent work by Bruce, and continued kudos to Jeffrey for all the reasons that everyone before me stated so much more eloquently than my gray matter is able to spit out at this moment.
