Letter from a Listener

Posted on February 5, 2006 by | Posted in For Volunteers | Comments: 2 Comments on Letter from a Listener

This is the most WONDERFUL website! I found it this winter and it’s made my working day zip by. I work part-time in a museums storage unit here in the Oxfordshire countryside, and spend most of my days wrestling with big heavy boxes full of Anglo-Saxon pottery and sheep
bones and struggling through complex archaeological reports. Listening to Pride and Prejudice, Treasure Island, Five Children and It, The Call of the Wild, and all your terrific choices has made that much more fun. Read on!

Thanks,

Lydia C.

it’s nice that we are starting to get emails like this:

Just wanted to take the time to say, Thank You.

I’ve now finished several good books I’ve always wanted to read, by
simply driving to work or lying down to sleep.

Here at LibriVox, we really like a few things:

  • podcasting
  • books
  • librivox volunteers

Well, just in time for christmas (or chanukah, or the holidays) you can support all three. Neal Foley, aka the Podchef, who puts out a great podcast about food, cooking and food politics, and one of the very first LibriVox volunteers has just published a cookbook comprised of recipes from his podcast, along with beautiful photos. All the design, layout, photos, writing etc was done by the man himself, quite an undertaking, and we applaud the DIY spirit.

You can buy a hard copy of the book from Lulu.com (the print on demand company): here.

And you can still get the pdf for free, I believe, here.

I’ve tried a couple of recipes with great success. Enjoy. And congrats to Neal.
