When Once He Made a Beginning: A Pride and Prejudice Variation debuted in eBook and paperback in September 2024, I was delighted by the enthusiastic response from readers. Now, I’m excited to announce that Once He Made a Beginning is available in two new formats: audiobook and Large Print—offering fresh opportunities to enjoy Darcy and Elizabeth’s journey toward happily ever after.
Why the addition of new formats? For one, it affords another chance to celebrate this story. Every release feels like a triumph, a way to revisit the joy of sharing a new tale with the world. Second, options matter. Now, Once He Made a Beginning is available in eBook (currently available in Amazon Kindle Unlimited), regular print paperback, large print paperback, and audiobook. I’m even entertaining the idea of releasing it in hardcover. We’ll see!
As for the latest format additions, let’s talk about large print paperbacks first. In addition to the tactile pleasure of holding a book in one’s hand, for readers who find standard text sizes challenging, the Large Print edition ensures the story is more accessible. The generous font size and carefully considered layout are perfect for those who prefer or require a less eye-straining reading experience. What’s more, it’s a beautiful edition to hold and enjoy, making it a great gift for someone who loves Pride and Prejudice-inspired stories. The season of giving is upon us, after all. I’m just saying…
Next up are audiobooks. Andy Robert’s brilliant narration, a voice my audience has come to know and love, breathes life into the story. His portrayal captures the characters’ voices, the subtle nuances of their dialogue, and the emotional depth in every scene. Hearing the story unfold through a voice that reflects its true essence is a marvelous experience indeed. I hope you’ll agree.
Here’s an excerpt from the audiobook to whet your appetite.
The audiobook edition of Once He Made a Beginning is currently available at a special introductory price when you buy direct and save from my author store, and it will soon be available at audiobook stores worldwide. Additionally, its streaming debut on my YouTube channel is just around the corner, so stay tuned for updates.
Whether you read, listen, or both, I hope you’ll savor this Pride and Prejudice variation in the format that suits you best. Happy reading (and listening)!
