Christopher Minori’s latest novel, Stealing Destiny, is currently in production to be released at Audible.com. Voiced once again by Daryl Mayfield, the audiobook is greatly anticipated by fans of banished demon Samm. Mayfield previously voiced Minori’s novel, Little Idiots.

Stealing Destiny is expected to be released on audio this month.

I hate to say it, but Samm is tired of being stuck in my novels and wanted to meet his fans (You know, that one dude in Kentucky). So for everyone who signs up for my newsletter will get a personal email from Samm!

DISCLAIMER: Samm is a demon and as such may curse, insult you, try to corrupt your soul, and perform in manner of inappropriate behavior. YOU’VE BEEN WARNED.

When I first decided I wanted to do an audiobook of my novel, Little Idiots, I was approached by a lot of producers, but either they just couldn’t get the voices right, or they missed the timing on my writing, causing the jokes to fall flat (But you should’ve heard the British producer; she did a good job, but it was weird hearing Samm with a strong accent). When Daryl Mayfield sent in his audition, I was taken by how he instantly picked up the timing of my writing, which is actually not as easy as you might think. And then I heard him do the main female character’s voice. I had to replay it several times to figure out if it was him, or an actual female, or sound editing. Right then, I knew I had to work with Daryl and I was right; the audiobook sounds amazing...

Christopher Minori’s new novel, Little Idiots, is now available. The novel picks up where the novella, Devil’s Advocate, left off. Samm is a lower-class demon who’s having the worst day of his millennia: banished from Hell, his powers stripped from him, caught in the middle of a demon turf war, and an escaped demon-hunting soul has Samm in its sights. Satan has promised to allow him back into Hell; all he has to do is capture the soul and discover who helped it escape. The good news is he already knows who it is. The bad news is it’s him. Samm will have to wade through the middle of this insanity if he ever wants to see Hell again. With the help of human detective Barney Little, fellow demon Jude, and a young witch-in-training, he might just make it. But probably not.

Christopher Minori’s horror-comedy anthology, Dirty Little Secrets, is now available in audio book format at audible.com and Amazon.com. Fifteen of the original stories are performed on the 8 1/2 hour recording by actor/producer John O’Hearn. The sixteenth story, Jurassic Lark, was not recorded for the book as it did not translate well to audio. The book is selling briskly, with great reviews. You can purchase the audio book here. There’s three ways to purchase it:

1. If you’re not a member of audible, it can be purchased using credit card, PayPal or with an Amazon gift card.

With the audiobook version of Christopher Minori’s Dirty Little Secrets near release, we thought it was a good time to get a little close and personal with its producer and actor, John O’Hern.

1. You’re a man of many talents; producer, actor, author. Which is your favorite hat to wear?

I have always been a story teller. It’s my most natural talent (if you saw my golf swing you’d see what an unnatural talent looks like!!) and it’s probably what I was born to do. So…to answer your question I would have to say acting and writing are my most favorite things. I get great pleasure from storytelling and I don’t really care how I do it…by acting or writing one down. Both take a lot of work to properly craft but it’s always worth it in the end.

2. What made you decide to produce Dirty Lit...

Christopher Minori’s anthology, Dirty Little Secrets has been picked up by producer John O’Hern for an Audible audiobook production. The audiobook will contain fifteen of the original sixteen stories.

“I wanted to include them all,” Minori says, “but we found that Jurassic Lark really didn’t translate to audio.”

The audiobook is expected to be released as an Audible.com exclusive and should arrive in June.

Minori has said he plans to pre-release several stories from the book before its September debut.

“I’m going to publish at least two or three stories before the book comes out. Fans of my play, The Texas Chainsaw Musical!, know exactly what they’re getting with my writing. But for people who are new to my work, this is a chance to see what I’m about, discover my writing style, and generally question my life choices. But, if you like the stories, you’re going to love the book.”
