501 - Book Talk at 11:00 Welcome back! After a recalibrating break, CraftLit is setting sail with Robert Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island. What has Heather been up to in her "downtime"? Only helping scientists, getting stung by scorpions and rappelling down waterfalls. Don't believe me - look about three inches down and watch the video.  Heather Rappels Down a Waterfall  CRAFTY Procreate  PRE Capstan  Talk Like a Pirate     Thanks for setting sail with CraftLit - more treasure to come next week!

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.
