They are brilliant! barnesandnoble.com/w/the-last-smi…TO CLARIFY: this isn't a list of authors who narrated their own audio. Sorry! Surely that list exists somewhere else.

If you have recorded a book you didn't write AND you wrote one of your own, let me know.I also want to give a special shout-out to @Blunder_Woman who consistently writes funny, heartfelt, observant posts on her blog that inevitably bring a tear to my eye (and often down my face):whoa okay I've just been told that preorder links exist for Thank Your For Listening, which I did not know and seems *very* early and now I'm panicking a little, but 😬:This Post is from an account that no longer exists.

Man, what a writer: nationalparks.org/connect/blog/i…Reviving this thread today to announce the arrival of this beauty.
