Audio books for Larkstorm & Nightingale

This happened: Dawn Rae Miller’s LARKSTORM and NIGHTINGALE, to Contessa Nyree at Audible, in a two-book deal, by Kathleen Ortiz at New Leaf Literary & Media. What does that mean? Larkstorm & Nightingale are both being made into audio books by Audible! Thanks to Kathleen for managing the deal!

German Cover of Larkstorm (Eistochter)

About a year ago, I sold the LARKSTORM German rights to Blanvalet and have since been excitedly waiting to see the cover they would give my baby. Well, here it is! They definitely captured the cold, icy feeling of the book, as well as Lark’s sense of being trapped. Oh! And the title translates to … Continue reading »
