y'all couldn't have edited out the breaths?

It was so difficult listening to Travis speak because he was doing these extremely loud sharp inhales every few words, it was so awful. was he sitting too close to the microphone? is that just how he talks? audible, why couldn't you edit those breaths out?

Intrigued!

As someone considering listening to these audiobooks, I really enjoyed this interview. It’s informative but doesn’t give anything away. I am putting the books in my library now.

Quite an experience!

First off, author is an excellent director and producer etc. I loved this Audible Original. I scoffed at the idea that it would just be a vampire tale but it has much more going for it. Layers of lost love and torn spiritual connectiona and innocence lost in such an unforgiven and treacherous environment. The ending has much to be desired. It was too cute and it...well I don't want to spoil. Just my opinion backed up by subjective evidence. One more thing....I'm gonna be spoiled on future productions of audio books. The production overall was so well done I didn't get that I was listening to an audio book on my Beats Studio Pro. You can really get the full Dolby Atmos experience with this title. If you don't have those I highly recommend using some sorts to decent headphones.

Impact Winter

I really enjoyed listening to Impact Winter! I listening to this short interview with the author. Was really enjoyable.

Great conversation with the creator to delve deeper

I love both books of Impact Winter - they’re very different from the usual full-cast story telling. It’s clear that a lot of thought has been put into acting and making the soundscape. This is both refreshing and nostalgic, combining the feelings of being in a cinema, a theater, and reading a book, all at the same time. So it’s very enjoyable to hear the thinking behind and how the whole thing was produced. Look forward to many more great things to come from Trevor Beacham. The interviewer asked great questions too. Thanks a lot!
