R&J: Audible and David Hewson


Does the man never stop?! It sounds as if he will be in the Audio Studios this afternoon, perhaps recording a chat for R&J or doing a pic for the new cover. Hewson has just tweeted to say he has arrived in NYC and so I'm sure that this is what Audible's tweet is referring to:

Yes! There's been an interview, to be released nearer the time that the book comes out:

Richard and I were interviewed at length today about Romeo and Juliet. Expect video nearer to launch. Fascinating to hear him talk craft.

And a video:

In case you missed it, Audible asked who our favorite celebrity narrator is:

I think the responses are bit one-sided. Clear favorite: Emma Thompson! (Just kidding - it's Richard.)

LOL! 😂😉

His fans have really overwhelmed the Audible site but, as far as DC is concerned, they are absolutely right.

Hewson continues to gear up for his new audiobook and he has just tweeted a selection of admiring reviews for Hamlet which are still coming in after 2 years, he notes:

He has chosen those which have more to say about his novel than RA's performance, of course. But, RA has 2,500 ratings for his reading, most of them 5 star.

Audible is clearly trying new delivery systems to keep monthly subscribers. They now have a comedy channel.

I wonder what they're doing with RandJ that will be different from the usual audiobook that Hewson hinted at?
