Me (author Michael Campling) reading the recent piece from the In No Particular Order section of my VIP Readers Club publication. I recorded this in one take as if it were live, so there are a few missteps, but I like to think it adds to the experience - maybe that’s overoptimistic. There will be more of these, so I ought to get better as I go along. Anyway, I hope you enjoy it. Take care.

In today’s video I perform a reading of a recent piece from the In No Particular Order section called The Lost Art of Getting Lost. I recorded it in one go so it’s ‘recorded as live’. This is something new I’m trying, so I hope you enjoy it. Sorry about the gulping tea noises! I really did need that cuppa and didn't realise the mic would pick it up so well. I did say it was recorded as live, so it’s as near as you can get to visiting my writing room. For more, visit my substack: https://vipreaders.substack.com/ This is a public episode.

A chat with me, author Michael Campling, creator of the Devonshire Mysteries and other books. I’m talking about putting all my books back on all retailers and library services - a process commonly known among authors as ‘going wide‘. All my books will soon be on Kobo, Kobo+, Nook, Apple, Google Play and other retailers internationally as well as library services. The books will still be on Amazon, of course, but not in Kindle Unlimited. This is a public episode.
