That's funny. Imagine-- a woman. A robot theme will be good. I look forward to hearing them.
Have a good day!

Thanks for this!

Hi Rapunzelina,
When it mentioned Maine, I thought for a minute people would be alive there. For a small place it gets a lot of attention--even from the Chinese. :lol:
It is cool to have a Victorian era dystopian story for the collection.
PL OK.
Thanks!
-Amy :D

Hi Barry,
We have the story in this collection already. It will have to be reserved for the next one. I will PL now though, in case updates are needed.
Thanks!

Thanks, Amy. I was a bit worried about sound levels to be honest - I saw that the wave height varied a lot depending on which voice I was attempting. I also hadn't realised that Dale had just done this one. Seems I'm not the only person on the lookout for new SF releases that are short :-)

Hi Edmunds,
We didn't have anything by Mari Wolf yet so it is great to get her in the catalog. I will listen to these soon.
Thank you for your stories!

At first I thought this was a little weak. But it's an allegory, for dating in one's 20's.

Thanks

Hi Dale,
I will PL soon. I have three robot stories to PL. I'm going to bed now so instead of moonlight, it will be 'a cup of coffee and robots.'
Thank you for your story!

Hi Chip,
Your reading was so engaging. Thank you for it! The recording needs to have the ending silence reduced to 5 seconds. Please adjust it and resubmit it.
