Hello gentlereaders!

At long last, we've migrated away from our simple roots, and this little blog space is no longer going to serve as the platform for our podcast. We haven't ended it, just moved on to a nicer space!

Thank you so much in sticking with us over the years. This space will remain active indefinitely, but will no longer be updated. To continue following our adventures, you can check us out on our new space at Podbean, and subscribe to "The Read-Along" on most podcatchers.

Thanks again, and we'll see you in our future novels!
