Seventh Day of CraftLit

CraftLit is—Annotated Audiobooks for Busy People 

Love the classics (or wish you did) 

*** No time to pick up a book? Not any more! *** This weekly annotated audiobook podcast presents curated classic literature in a serialized format. The host—Heather Ordover—"teaches to the joke" by filling in any relevant tidbits before listening to the next chapter of the book.   

*** Callers regularly send in voicemail comments for play on the air to keep the "book club" vibe going. ***    

The podcast has been in continuous weekly production since 2006 - Our current book, "Recollections of Joan of Arc" by Mark Twain begins with episode 581.
