Signing, Smiling, and Selling
August 1, 2026Listen to the Magic! Tirna Magique is Officially Here!
You know that feeling, right? That rush when you cross a finish line, or when you meet someone truly special for the first time? Or maybe it’s the sheer relief after a long struggle, finally basking in the sunlight of your hard-won goal.
Well, that’s exactly where I am right now. And honestly? I still can’t quite believe it! Tirna Magique is alive. It’s truly, wonderfully alive in audio!
It certainly took its sweet time, but after a journey, it’s finally here!
Of course, then my old friend, imposter syndrome, tries to rain on my parade. It whispers, “Yeah, but it’s only 4 hours, 19 minutes, and 47 seconds. That’s not very long for two years of work, is it? Two years for this ‘short little thing’?”
But then, the excited part of me kicks back in. “Hey!” it argues, “You’re balancing a corporate job and daily life! Over those two years, you wore four professional hats: full editor, breath control expert, noise cleanup artist, and mastering engineer. That was a massive technical undertaking (Audacity -picture below)! You should be incredibly proud that you completed and engineered a full commercial product! Plus, think about your commute! This story is absolutely perfect for anyone who wants to dive in and finish an entire feature in one sitting, not spend a week or more committing to a massive series. You’ve hit that sweet spot for audiobook lovers looking for a fast, immersive read between those epic sagas!”
I’m really trying to listen to that second voice. Really, I am.
Sigh.
And just like that, the excitement comes roaring back! So, let’s get to the fantastic news!
For those of you who haven’t yet discovered Tirna Magique, let me give you a little peek. Imagine an Earth grappling with a plague (yes, I know, Earth always seems to be having a rough time!). Then, picture a glowing, secret world that Alesa introduces her three friends to. The story beautifully unfolds, with each chapter revealing the journey of these women and why their hearts have become guarded. And in Tirna Magique, (imagine Ursula from The Little Mermaid saying this with a wink)… they get their man! Or, well, their other-human male hottie… or whatever suits their fancy!
For those of you who have already read the novella, I absolutely loved hearing Tammie, Katherine, Carmen and Alesa (in order below) truly come to life through audio. I sincerely hope you do too!
The narrator, Ella Barren, is AMAZING!!!!
So, what are you waiting for? Head on over to Audible, Amazon, and Apple Books to enjoy this medium-spice, high-emotional-tension adventure!
I keep repeating this, but I love it — One reader perfectly described it as “Sex & the City meets Narnia.” Ha! That really does say it all!
Until next time!
