Dear Readers,

Do a search and you’ll find a lot of self-help books with titles including words such as grit, perseverance, resilience, determination, and discipline. Another word I heard a lot in the 70s was sticktoitiveness. This mouthful implies that you stick to something through thick and thin, ups and downs, fog and bog, sunburn and sore feet—even when giving up might be, well, a lot easier.

Maybe even smart.

Sticktoitiveness perfectly describes what we’ve gone through to bring you Passages—Best of NewMyths Volume I audio.

That’s right, we just released our first AUDIO BOOK

Voice actor Mike Sears began recording the project pre-COVID, but through the lockdowns, health issues, family issues, missing recording equipment, and disappeared audio files, we stuck-to-it until we finished recording and producing a fantastic audiobook. This couldn’t have been possible without our talented voice actors, Mike Sears and Tommy McCarthy (a really great guy and singer from No Authority), Angelica Duardo, our summer issue editor who helped keep Tommy on track, and Rob E. del Sol, our producer.

I hope you check it out. Here is a link to a FREE SAMPLE to whet your appetite.

Also, if you have an extra five minutes are doing our first major survey. We want to improve NewMyths for both readers and contributors, and your feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your love of wonder fiction, and especially your continued support.
