Summary: The discovery of a website about Yeerks could mean that the Animorphs have allies in their ongoing fight. Or it could mean that the Yeerks are setting a trap. The only way to find out is to investigate...but one wrong move could have the Yeerks discovering their identities either way.

Whew, this schedule of keeping up with my pro audiobook contracts AND Animorphs Aloud is pretty wearing, but I'll keep trying for as long as I can! If it gets to be too much, though, I might cut back to posting these once every three days instead of every two.

Chapter 6 of The Warning, part 16 of Animorphs Aloud, a fan-produced read-aloud version of the Animorphs series.

Hey, I don't know if this would be anyone's thing here, but an author I work with is doing a Kickstarter to get one of her series into audiobook form. It ends in one day and we are so close to being able to have both books 1 AND 2 in audio! If you would be willing to share or support, that would be amazing!

Sorry for the delay! I had planned to spend all weekend being super productive, but my grandma had a stroke and we spent most of our time at the hospital instead. (She's doing a lot better now! We're hopeful she'll be able to come home sooner than later.)

Also, side-note, this chapter marks the 500th episode of Animorphs Aloud! Whew! It's been an epic journey, y'all, and I'm very hopeful I'll be able to make it all the way to book 54!

Here you go, another chapter already! Except, lol, I didn't remember yesterday that I had finished two chapters before the chaos of this weekend, and so I should have had one ready on Monday for you guys after all. So yesterday, for the first two hours that the episode was up, it was chapter 9 instead of 8. It's now been corrected! And this is the actual chapter 9, uploaded today to (ideally) make things less confusing.

Now it'll take more than the truth to set you free....

Chapter 14 of The Warning, part 16 of Animorphs Aloud, a fan-produced read-aloud version of the Animorphs series.

There are sometimes when I do a moment in a scene two different ways, and it can be hard to know which is the best choice. That was the case for today's chapter: initially I did Cassie's "Unless that's too late!" monologue with a little more passion and aggression. But once I got to the end, she was patiently waiting on Jake's answer and Marco had no comeback, so I decided to do it again, and scale it back.

Interestingly, I feel like the initial choice was the better acted one, and I would have preferred to keep it! But it just didn't quite flow right with the overall scene. That's the tricky thing about being my own director - there's no second opinion! But each choice hopefully helps me to improve for the future, so yay for that.

Thanks for listening!

Sorry for the delay, you guys! I'm trying hard to keep up with things, but why are these last few weeks of the year always packed with so many things to do?? I did not take this amount of busyness into account when planning to maintain both my work schedule and Animorphs Aloud. I'll keep trying my best, but there might be a couple more delays between chapters until I catch back up again with my current audiobook contract.

Thanks for understanding! And listening!

I'm telling you guys, December has not been my month. Not only have I not kept up with Animorphs Aloud like I wanted, I've also not been able to get as much done with my professional contract as I need to, and I haven't gotten hardly any Christmas gifts for anyone, AND I just got hit with the nastiest flu from the past two days and have been aching nonstop! So thank you all for still listening and supporting this podcast, despite my flakiness. It has been such a boon!

Thanks for listening!

I admit, all credit to MacLeod Andrews for Joe Bob's accent - I never would have thought to give him such a strong one if the official Animorphs narrator hadn't done it first. (Though really, with a name such as Joe Bob, it ought to have been an obvious choice. Despite my long practice as a narrator, I don't think about accents as much as I should unless they are called out in the text, which is clearly something I need to work on in the future!)

Chapter 24 of The Warning, part 16 of Animorphs Aloud, a fan-produced read-aloud version of the Animorphs series.

Great news! I've finished the professional contract I was working on and I'm taking a few days off before I start the next one, so there will be no more delays with this book! (And hopefully, none for at least the first several chapters of the next book!) I'm going to try to more disciplined about pacing myself this time, so I don't end up in the same situation again, with the Looming Deadline Boulder trying to squash me like in Indiana Jones.
