The Journal of Michael Merriam

I will be interviewed this Saturday, September 17th on “Readings in Lesbian & Bisexual Women's Fiction." The discussion will focus on my novel Last Car to Annwn Station, including the "incongruity" of a straight male writing lesbian fiction. I will also do a short (one to three minutes) reading from the novel.

The Details:
Date: Saturday, September 17
Time: 3:00pm Central

There is a guest line at phone number (646) 929-1909 for anyone who might want to call in and/or ask questions live on air during the show.

careswen and I listened to the first several minutes. The reader has a smooth and pleasant reading voice and does different, distinct voices for the characters. We were both pleased.

I am as please as can be to announce that Should We Drown in Feathered Sleep is available in audio format here at Audible.com

Guys, I started to tear up listening to the audio. Somehow this makes both Should We Drown in Feathered Sleep and the idea that I Are A Real Writer more, well, real. Knowing that Carina Press and Harlequin both felt strong enough about my work to have it put into this format, to hear it read by a professional reader (who has a fabulous voice, and uses tone and other tricks to make each character stand out ), honestly, I was not prepared for how it would make me feel. Coupled with the fact that I got my very first ever royalty check this week, I received some much needed positive reinforcement and my holiday season got a little cheerier!

Since it is the holidays and we all know people who read, this seems like a good time to remind folks where they can pick up my novellas, the anthology I had the privilege to edit, and my short story collection.

Should We Drown in Feathered Sleep can also be purchased in ebook format at Carina Press, Amazon, and B&N
