    The Write Path #50 - "Stained Glass Mustang," with Author Tim Bryant!!!

    From "The Stained Glass Mustang" by Tim Bryant...  "What if your shot at redemption came painted across the hood of a car?John Williams had it all-until one drunk drive left his career and reputation in ruins. Now the once-celebrated Charleston adman is down to a single client: a sleazy hustler who thrives on scandal. Just when John thinks he's hit bottom, he inherits a vintage sports car covered in vivid, hand-painted scenes from the life of Christ. To his client, it's the perfect PR stunt. To a fiery single mother with a strong south-of-the-border accent and unshakable faith, using the car this way is a sin. Torn between exploitation and reverence, John must navigate temptation, truth, and his own battered conscience to discover whether salvation is something he can sell-or something he has to earn."  From herding cows in his Jaguar to sunning on his beach house on stilts, this author has QUITE a STORY!  Listen now.  Website:  https://timbryantsarmadilloisland.com/ Book Link:  https://www.amazon.com/Stained-Glass-Mustang-Tim-Bryant/dp/1963115724 Welcome to the Write Path Podcast, where being an author, an actual author, still matters.

    The Write Path #43 - The Voice Behind the Pages, with Audio Genius Liza Jacob!!!

    Liza Jacob is a seasoned, sharp, and spectacularly listenable audiobook narrator. Liza brings a behind-the-scenes look at what actually makes an audiobook work—from performance choices to production standards. Listeners walk away with a sharper ear, smarter expectations, and fewer expensive mistakes. With 30+ titles under her belt and over 10 accents mastered, she brings cozy mysteries, romance, and fantasy to life with a voice that’s as dependable as it is delightful.  For indie writers navigating audio, Liza demystifies the process and raises the bar. She helps listeners understand how voice, pacing, and performance directly impact reviews, retention, and long-term sales. With 30+ titles produced across romance, cozy mystery, fantasy, and speculative fiction, she works at the intersection of performance, production, and author intent. Translation: she knows where audiobooks succeed, where they quietly fail, and why.  What makes Liza especially valuable to independent writers is that she doesn’t just narrate books—she understands the ecosystem. She’s worked closely with producers, engineers, and authors, and she brings that insider perspective to authors who are often making high-stakes audio decisions without a clear roadmap. She helps writers see their work the way narrators, listeners, and platforms do—before the money is spent and the reviews are written.
