Audiobook Giveaway—Enter Now!

Posted on by

I’m thrilled to let you know that the audio-book version of Are We French Yet? has just been published. The reader is Doug Schuetz, a talented voice actor who just happens to be my old college roommate! We’ve stayed in touch over the years, mostly holiday cards and such, and this was a wonderful opportunity to reconnect, share memories, and have fun during the recording.

Doug and I live on opposite coasts so he would record a few chapters, send them to me for review, and then make any corrections. His only stipulation when he agreed to the project was that I not “go all Martin Scorsese” and try to tell him how to do his job. As Doug put it, “You’re a terrific author but not an actor or a director—I’m the professional. Let’s each do what we’re good at.” He said it in a lighthearted manner but I got the point.

And I love the result! He made my funny stories even funnier by the way he read them. A few times while listening, I would call Val into the room and tell her, “You’ve just got to hear this!”

The audio-book is available from Amazon here and would make a great Christmas gift for the France-lover in your life. And to get things rolling, I have six copies to give away. Just let me know in the comment below that you’d like one , by next Wednesday the 11th, and I’ll pick the winners from those who enter.

  1. Yes please, I would love a copy. I love southern France (I spent 6 months in Uzes) and I am starting out in audio narration and love to listen how other ply the craft. France through your eyes + audio book would be an early Christmas gift.

  4. Dear Keith, I would love a copy of your audiobook! As a Francophile who owns a property in the Alsace, I’ve often thought I should Put pen to paper to remember all the fun we have had interacting with locals in our village. We travel a lot in France, and one of our favourite things to do while driving is to listen to audiobooks. Your collaboration with Doug would be a great addition to our audio library!
    Merci et meilleurs voeux,
    Janis

  8. Bonjour Keith! I adore Provence and plan to return again in 2020. I subscribe to your blog and so enjoy your posts. I’ve read your first book but would absolutely love to “listen” to this one next. Listening brings the book alive in such a fun way! Thanks so much. Suzette in Atlanta

  9. Hi Keith..
    I would love a copy of your audio book. We live in Vancouver so don’t know if that’s a possibility? We spend our summers near Vaison la Romaine and visit St.Remy often. Loved your recent restaurant recommendations!! Love the transhumance in the spring..a very special sight in St.Remy.
    I’m missing France and long to spend Christmas in Provence one year.
    Wishing you happy holidays..

    • Hi Jane,

      You are now entered in my contest!

      Vaison la Romaine is a beautiful town and I just love that area. My wife and I sometimes ride our bikes nearby.

      I hope you get your Christmas wish and get to spend the holiday in Provence someday–wouldn’t that be fun?

      Best,

      Keith

  10. Hi Keith, I would love to win this, i really enjoy reading your posts, so Im sure it is equally entertaining. Being a fellow francophile from New Zealand, I have been fortunate to visit southern France twice & Im going again next year for longer “to live like a local”. We had a week in St Remy last year & Uzes previously, both beautiful towns.
    Cheers
    Barb.

    • Hi Barb,

      You are now entered in my contest!

      If you’ve spent time in St-Rémy and Uzès then you definitely have good taste because they are both wonderful towns. I hope you enjoy your trip next year and are able to live like a local–maybe you won’t want to come home!

      Best,

      Keith

  12. Me too me too, I would love a copy ! I want to hear Doug’s voice and his French of course. Some of our friends do not have time to read books and all they do is listen in the car, so it will be the perfect gift for these busy professionals. Thanks Keith for this generous and fun idea.

  13. Having a French wife, we have spend many great days in St. Rémy. I would love to read your book to see if my wife lives up to your thoughts of the French.

  14. I’d love to win a copy of your audiobook. Much of my “reading” is done via audiobook and it’d be fun to live vicariously through your French adventures.
