Weird Word Wranglers, Attention!

Edited to add:  All books are now in the hands of wranglers.  Many thanks to everyone who volunteered to help!      Sharon

All righty, then.  We hear from Mr. Feldberg (yay! Mr. Feldberg!) at Audible that, in order to get all -- that's ALL of the Liaden titles out in audiobook format by the time the hardcover of Dragon Ship hits the shelves in September, the books are going to be read by four different narrators, within "sequence" (Those being, according to the authors:  The Agent of Change Sequence; The Theo Waitley Sequence; The Before Books; The Space Regencies).  That means that the following books, which have not yet been wrangled, need to be -- now.

Books outstanding are:
Conflict of Honors
Plan B
I Dare
Balance of Trade

Where we're going from here:

A.  If you volunteered to wrangle any of the four titles above and have a list in order, now is the hour!  Please email the list to me at rolanniATgmailDOTcom.

B.  If you volunteered to wrangle one of the four titles above, and Life has Happened, please drop me a note to let me know that you're OK, and we'll get the work reassigned.

C.  If you volunteered to wrangle one of the four titles above, and do neither A nor B, above, by end of business, tomorrow, Friday, June 1, I will reassign the book to another wrangler.  I still love you; no blame, but...necessity.

D.  If you can take one of the above titles and wrangle it like a whirlwind, please drop me a note at the gmail address in A and let me know which title you would like to take on.

Thanks, everyone!

I've had "I Dare", and life has, indeed, been 'interesting'. I ackowledge Necessity, and suggest handing off to another. If I can get a break to work on it, I will, but would rather have two sets of eyes on it than none.

Kind of sorry about the four different readers, but ALL the books? Definitely YAY! I have four credits saved up so far ...

+1

All the books = a very good thing.

Me and my 20-something year old copy of A Conflict of Honors thank you. On the other hand, I also enjoy spy-vs-spy in Agent of Change, so it's a question which one I look forward to most.

Fortunately I don't get graded on this sort of thing...

Don't save too many -- they delete a credit every time you have six and try to add another. I was just wondering how to handle this myself. Maybe they'll release what they have completed in July or August? Here's hoping!

I too have to claim "B". I was hoping to get to work on it this weekend.

Life Happens. Believe me, I understand. Consider the book off your plate, and thank you so very much for being willing to help!

I had volunteered to do a second book but have forgotten which it was after I finally finished Crystal Dragon. I'll do Plan B or I Dare and start this weekend if you drop me a note. JeanneT
