I spent nearly 20 years trying to get The American Game made into a movie. It was a story about a series of baseball games that take place between enemy soldiers during the Civil War. It seemed like a beautiful story, an with the way people got excited about it when I told them, it seemed like it was a sure thing.
When I finally gave up, I wrote it into a book. Though I was most proud of the book, I always felt it was a pity that I didn't get to see these characters portrayed on screen. I didn't ever get to hear their voices.
But that changed when I partnered with Steve White to create the audiobook. White is an actor who does an amazing array of accents and voices. I knew as soon as I heard his voice reel that he would be able to bring these characters to life. And he did.
Over the course of a year, he worked on the audiobook, and now it's available on Audible. It's so amazing to hear the characters come to life, and the story become a reality. I love the written word, but this was always meant to be seen and heard. At least I got one of the two.
