The audio book for To Darkness Fled is here! It came out slowly, first in early December on Apple and various other online stores, but Audible didn’t release it until January. It’s fabulous.

Hello, my bookish Explorers. It has been so long since I gave you an update on life. What have I been up to? Well . . . I finished grad school (hooray!), earned my degree and my teaching credential (hooray!), then started looking for a job (ug). My son went of to COLLEGE (dies), and […]
