I would LOVE to, and I'm super eager. I just have to wait to have the budget. Hiring a narrator for audiobooks is very expensive (between $3000 to $5000 for a book). I intend to have audiobooks for all my bestsellers.
Thank you for the question and for being among my readers 💕(less)

It's your mind's way of telling you to scrap it. So I know there is something wrong with my story. As soon as I find a better alternative or a new direction, the wirter's block is gone!
My writing has improved greatly since I started taking it as a sign that something is wrong. (less)

Quotes by Mell R. Bright  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“Why did you jump after me?” Jude asks at some point. His voice is rough from his close encounter with death.
I’m glad we can’t see each other’s faces in this position.
“I don’t know,” I say.
And it’s the fucking truth. Why did I risk my life to save my captor? I plunged to an almost certain death for him. I’ve been losing my mind since the day he dragged me out of Bunkertown.
Jude says nothing, but his hand finds mine in the water, and he squeezes it hard enough to hurt.”
Mell R. Bright, The Whims of Hate

“We’re two hateful bastards, starved for touch. I’m the monster nobody can love, and he’s the jellyfish that stings anyone who gets close.”
Mell R. Bright, The Whims of Hate

“Humans are not meant to share DNA with legends. Some behaviors are unpredictable, and the side effects are often devastating. Gods do not like to be told what to do, and neither do their human counterparts.”
Mell R. Bright, The Whims of Gods

“Your heart. Is it for the taking? Because I want it. In a non-life-threatning way.”
Mell R. Bright, A Heart for the Taking

“Humans are not meant to share DNA with legends. Some behaviors are unpredictable, and the side effects are often devastating. Gods do not like to be told what to do, and neither do their human counterparts.”
Mell R. Bright, The Whims of Gods

“I can see the moment when he douses the fire in his soul. The human side of him keeps the monster on a tight leash.
He takes care of my wounds in silence while I run my fingers through his thick hair and over his horns. I can't stop touching him. I wish I could crawl under his skin and let his fire warm my weary bones.”
Mell R. Bright, The Whims of Gods
