hi, a quick #introduction 👋 I'm Toedel and I suffer from #MECfs which has left me completely house bound and on most days mostly bed bound as well. I'm an avid reader of #AudioBooks which leaves my hands free for making pretty things. #fiberarts #knitting #crochet #CrossStitch #embroidery

Good night! #3GoodThings

  1. Finished another chapter in Braille. Only three more to go!
  2. Finished Heart of Obsidian by Nalini Singh in the Psy-Changeling series in audio. Only three more books to go in the series then it’s on to Psy-Changeling Trinity. I’ll have it done by December when the next book comes out.
  3. Got the towels washed, Dried, folded and put away. I think I’m running a fever. 🤣 Bonus: 4. It was a gorgeous day with temps in the 70s and low humidity so windows are open!!!! Sleep well and may your dreams be nothing but sweet. 🤗🫶❤️🫂 #GoodNight #Braille #AudioBooks

I'm still loving the audiobook of David Copperfield, narrated by Richard Armitage. (He's sooooo good.) Just passed the 30% of the way through point, after starting on April 6th. So expecting that to be ongoing well into June. I'm still listening to other, shorter, ones too. Just finished Adrian Tchaikovsky's new one Children of Strife, which was great. #books #Audiobooks

I know this is common knowledge, particularly for blind users, but I’m obsessed with ElevenLabs. The human-sounding voices are incredible; they've made listening to ebooks an amazing experience. Now I barely need other apps for ebooks, #Audiobooks are still my main choice, but when an audiobook is not available, or if I don't like the narrator's voice, then I always use Eleven Reader as an option. It means now I can read more and more with even a bigger pleasure. #Accessibility #Blind #Books #Bookstodon #Technology #AI

Hey #indieAuthor people, anyone have a passionate opinion about free vs purchased ISBNs for #audiobooks ? It seems like there are a lot fewer platforms to distribute on, vs the whole Amazon vs IngramSpark issue for paperbacks, so the argument of being able to use the same number across platforms is less vital?

Embracing the Shadows: The Best Dark Romance Audiobooks Any romance reader can tell you that “romance” is too broad of a term to accurately describe their reading habits. Just like IRL romance can’t be cleanly defined, stories about love and sensuality can’t be constrained. For every relationship dynamic, kink, and fantasy, there’s most likely a subgenre exploring it. But of all those subgenres—romantasy, […] The post Embracing the Shadows: The Best Dark Romance Audiobooks appeared first on Libro.fm Audiobooks. https://blog.libro.fm/dark-romance-audiobooks/ #Audiobooks #audiobookrecommendations #audiobooks #darkromance #librofm

Your Most Sustainable Read: Digital vs. Print When we think about carbon footprints, reading habits don’t immediately come to mind. There are many pastimes and hobbies that have a larger environmental impact, but that doesn’t mean the impact can’t be reduced.
