This is a series put together by Laura Bynum (author of the distopian novel Veracity and currently accepting pre-orders for two other novels on Inkshares, Cancer Nation and The Hide).  The series has authors reading their favorite passage from one of their books.

Thanks Jessica for sharing this! We're creating a place readers can come and catch quick listens to their favorite authors, or authors they've not yet heard of. We're going to list their self-described genres (to better whittle them down to a more accurate representation of the piece), and their influences to make choosing from what we plan to make a many-hundreds' long Author Index easier to choose from.
