I know, I know… it’s been a little quiet over here (I’ve been a bit busy 😅), but I’ve got tons of exciting news to share with you today. So, grab your favorite snack and let’s dive in! 🍿

✨ The AI Mayor Debate – Fully Free & Available NOW! ✨

Guess what? The AI Mayor Debate (the first part of my Solar Glade Snapshots series) is FREE and fully available for you to enjoy right now on Spoken. That’s right, you can listen to all the quirky, AI-filled chaos at no cost!

But wait—there’s more! The second short story in the series, The Bureaucratic Wormhole, is also up and ready to go. Get ready for more laughs, more glitchy AI moments, and, of course, more of Solar Glade’s ridiculousness. It’s completely free to listen too, so don’t miss it!

🎬 Pushing Up Daisies – My New Satirical Short Story on YouTube 🎬

I’ve got another story to share with you! This one’s called Pushing Up Daisies, and it’s a satirical short story that will have you laughing and cringing at the same time.

Here’s the setup: "Harriet has lost the Millfield Annual Garden Competition fifteen years running. She is determined to figure out the secret of reigning champion. But when she finds out the answer, she may wish she didn’t." 🌸

It’s a little dark, a little hilarious, and full of unexpected twists. I’ve embedded it right here in the newsletter for you to enjoy!
