An 'Unchained' variant of Geek 2 Outdoors Hunting via Audiobook form will be published via Google tomorrow 12/12/2023.

I made the cost just a few dollars more than the hardcover copy found on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Geek-2-Outdoor...

Again, 100% free if already bought. Just show me proof of purchase and it is coming your way.

300+ hours of work over 2 years coming to closure.

Final Edits are now 100% Complete.

I am doing the new uploads right now as I type this.

The last final 1% of this effort is to get these in a deliverable format.

I want anyone who purchased the text-based book already to receive a copy of the audio version for free with proof of purchase.

I will have to do some reflection and figure out the best way to accomplish this and also for new audio only folks.

Getting so close.

Final edits completed on Chapters 1, 5, & 7.

Chapter 2 however, will require quite a bit of work. There was an overlap issue that is causing me to have to re-upload the entire audio file, which will take ~45 minutes to reformat and compile alone.

There's also going to be ~20 minutes or so that I will need to re-record entirely.

Aiming for next week to be 100% complete and ready to release.

I have completed the ~18 hours of this audiobook again for the third time!

Being pure of heart, I have sincerely enjoyed all three (3) listen throughs.

Everything from getting outdoors, survival skills, health and fitness, and so much more - even though it's my own story this is very positive material that is deep. Something that can be hard to find in the era of AI and ticktock brain material.

Final edits next!

It's coming along slowly but surely!

This will be the final go-through for the Audiobook before I call this done.

So far there's about 1 hour worth of editing found I would like to do before a 1.0 release, so I am super thankful that I am doing a third listen through of my book.

I still want to make this free as well for anyone who bought the original text version.

Thinking about how to do that.

Stay tuned!

About to start Round 6.

This will be hopefully the final listen-through before I release the audiobook.

If everything went as planned, all editing should be complete at this point and this is just the final confirmation before Audiobook release.

Hoping to close this effort during this calendar month September 2023.

Some editing tasks for sure with the first 25%. I am pretty happy with everything else to the right of that for sure. Will be a fairly straight forward clean-up effort.

Reviewing myself, which is funny, my section on packing lists wasn't may favorite lol. But maybe some folks who never served it will be worthwhile.

Back at it I go!

An update on my book and this labor of love project of mine.

At the time of this entry, I have put right around 300 hours into this effort.

~160 hours in 2022 and currently sitting around ~140 hours right now for 2023.

With a personal local revision count of 426, I just hit submit for an official version #3 publish available online.

All versions can be found at:

This will be my 3rd attempt to try to get into this book. My initial reaction is to slam this with a 1 star review and label this as worst-in-class High Republic.

I am sincerely trying to be open minded and be as fair and impartial as I possibly can.

Going to take my time give this a round 3 attempt.... here we go...
