Please welcome back Craig Robertson to the site. He’s beginning the release of a new serialized audiobook, The Prisoner of NaNoWriMo:
Piers Langland is a mild mannered paint salesman with one burning passion. He aspires to be a famous author. Each November he looks forward to entering The National Novel Writer Month competition. To be a winner in NaNoWriMo he must write a 50,000 word novel in 30 days, a tall order for any writer. Turns out, it is an especially tall order for our hero. Join Piers as he struggles to choose a topic for his novel before he can begin his epic task. Vampires or space opera, romance or pulp fiction, what should he choose? Unfortunately, the greatest object holding him back is Piers himself. Follow this hilarious tale as Piers blunders his way though one genre after another, leaving a trail of wackiness and comical disasters in his wake. Can Piers choose a topic? Can Piers finish his book? Can Piers get even one thing right without bungling it terribly? Read The Prisoner of NaNoWriMo and find out.

It takes a certain sense of humor to appreciate the excessive word padding and barely followable plot line present in this book but the author does a good job reading the book and keeping the action moving.

Finished The Prisoner of NaNoWriMo in roughly two weeks at work. Great book! My co-workers would stare at me when I’d laugh at something I’d heard. Great stuff!!

Billy, thank you so much for validated my efforts; you have no idea how much it means to me : ) I have to confess after writing, narrating, editing, and re-editing, there were parts that still made me laugh (especially Piers interviewing Greg, the regret-neighbor) – weird, eh?

This was an interesting and imaginative story, and as I listened during this year’s NaNo prep I felt a small portion of Piers’ dismay in not being able to figure out what to write about. I enjoyed his adventures as he got involved in more and more outlandish situations.
It reminded me a bit of some of the old-style comedies I’ve seen, specifically The Secret life of Walter Mitty. In fact I would label this work as a comedy, but I know how hard it can be to come up with that single category.
Great job!

Thank you so much, Keith! As an accomplished PB.com author yourself, your praise is all the more special. As I really liked Borrowed Time, we can now be mutual fans – how cool is that?
