What was something you always looked forward to as child in school? Maybe “show and tell”, recess, or rainy day games like “heads up seven up”?
For me, I always looked forward to story time! Hearing my teachers skillfully narrate some of the most captivating tales that kept me on the edge of my seat, made my heart flutter, or boiled my blood are what sparked my love of reading as well as my love of audio books.

The apple must not have fallen far from the tree. Even as child I remember my mom listening to audiobooks on her commute to work (recorded on tapes and CDs rented from the library at that time). The fact is my love of listening to stories hasn’t dulled in all these years! Audiobooks allow you to escape to a new world, galaxy, or era – without packing a suitcase. Enjoy endless adventures while in the comfort of your own home, stuck in traffic, or during your 9-5.
Many of my readers (and now you too) know I am an Emergency Medical Technician. What they may not know is that being an EMT doesn’t always mean quick around town 911 transportation. Sometimes we have long distance transports of 4-8 hours, or more, round trip! You guessed it, if I’m up front driving I am undoubtedly listening to an audio book on Audible!
