Dear reader,

I’m excited to share that The Voice in All is now available for purchase on Amazon. Starting in November, the book will also be available for purchase from your local independent bookstore.

My social media book promotion tour and book launch events will take place over the next eight weeks, including at the 2022 BookyCon metaverse book festival (November 12). I’m delighted to be experimenting with many innovative book promotion strategies for my second book launch. I’ll be posting blog updates “from the road” of my virtual book tour to share what I’m learning, and I invite you all to join me on whatever platforms you enjoy (Instagram, TikTok, Twitter, Reddit, or right here on my author blog).

A big THANK YOU to everyone who joined my advance review teams on Netgalley and Booksirens! I appreciate each and every one of your honest reviews, wherever you choose to share them (and I especially appreciate reviews posted on the book’s Amazon and Goodreads pages).

Your recommendations, whether you post them publicly or share them word of mouth, are essential to helping new readers discover the book. Here’s just a sampling of the heartwarming feedback you’ve shared publicly about your reading experience:

“A fascinating ‘small’ fantasy story without any heros setting out to defeat evil and save the world ... Ava and Dom and a small cast of supporting characters are so well written ... that it's a delight to follow their story and discover their world together with them.”
“I finished it in one sitting. Great world building and characters that will stay with me for a long time to come. Highly recommend.”
“I enjoyed the world building and the puzzling connection between our two main characters. Separate and yet inseparable. It was a fun exploration of the bounds of the self and the world, a kind of literal mindfulness. The switching of the viewpoints was also interesting. If you like fantasy/magic/other-world adventures this is a good book for you!”
“I thoroughly enjoyed The Voice in All and am excited to read the sequels! I typically enjoy utopian and dystopian type novels, so it was already right up my alley.”
“… a fantasy adventure that explores the nature of how people are connected to one another and to the forces that shape their consciousness. I loved it!”

I’m also delighted to share some pre-release recognition the book has received. The Review Curmudgeon included The Voice in All in his Best of 2022 Gold Tier. In addition, the book won First Place for Visionary Fiction in Speak Up Talk Radio’s 2022 Firebird Book Awards.

For those of you now beginning the read, I hope you enjoy the journey!

Sincerely,

P.S. Audiobook format (read by yours truly) will be available right here on The Artifex and the Muse website beginning in December.
