Jefferson Bible Audio progress
Posted in Audio Books, Jefferson Bible, tagged audiobook, udpate on December 30, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
I have been able to record the first several chapters of The Jefferson Bible for the 21st Century, but have been stymied by an extended sinus infection. Now that my head is more clear and the holidays are nearly done, I’m trying to get this project wrapped up. I’ve also decided that I will attempt [...]
The Jefferson Audio Bible

Just a quick note here – the audio book for the Jefferson Bible for the 21st Century is definitely a project for the long Thanksgiving holiday break. Provided the rest of my planets get into alignment, I hope to be able to get this off my long overdue ‘to do’ list, and published by early [...]

I've finally put the text editing of the eBook to rest, and the final first edition will be hitting the interwebs shortly, followed by the audio book as quickly as I can turn it around. I still chuckle at myself because I thought this would be a fairly quick and painless audiobook to make, just [...]
Wrestling with eBook formats

Last week, I knew I would need to find more outlets for my eBook. I knew this would mean reformatting to meet the various requirements of the proprietary eBook vendors (Kindle, Sony, PDF, and etc.). When I found Smashwords it seemed like a quick fix for all of that. I've hit some snags, but they are not the fault [...]
The eBook has landed!

Well, we're off to the races now. The Jefferson Bible for the 21st Century! has been released as an eBook on scribd.com. In the first 48 hours it has received over a hundred reads, so that's a pretty positive thing. I checked many other uploads at random and my results were far above the average (for [...]
Publishing schedule

The Jefferson Bible for the 21st Century is going to be published soon. I need to (patiently, somehow) wait for the arrival of my proof copy before all systems are 'go'. Then I can turn my attention to the audio book version, and get that rolling. The text is edited, schmedited, pureed, processed, blended, and [...]

I've decided that since I'm getting close to the finish line on the text that it's probably okay for me to post a little comparison – to show what I've been up to. Below are some lines from the King James Version as quoted by Thomas Jefferson. It's a familiar story. This is from Chapter [...]
The foreword: The Jefferson Bible for the 21st Century

The project is moving forward incrementally to the finish line. I'm currently formatting the book into 6"x9" size for publication. I could also stand the services of an editor – please contact me if you're interested in the project. To hold your interest a bit longer, this is the current version of my foreword to [...]

Help a little?
If you're enjoying the podcast / audiobook, please leave ratings or reviews if you can. Since this project is time intensive and I'm giving it away, I would also appreciate some spare coin in the tip jar. Or perhaps you will consider the purchase of a paper or ebook copy? Thanks!
