It’s official: I am now the Social Media Editor for AudioFile magazine, the print and online resource for audiobooks! Tim Spalding, the founder of LibraryThing, let me know about the opportunity a couple of weeks ago, and it is truly a dream job for me on many levels. I’m very excited about the new community we’re launching on May 14, and will be sure to post an open invitation here once we’ve officially come out of beta. I hope you’ll join us even if you aren’t a regular audiobook listener; we’re going to have some exciting guest moderators, YA titles that you can download free from the publishing partners in our Sync teen summer listening program, and lively discussions about new and upcoming titles, technology in the publishing world, and so much more. I’m new to audiobooks myself, and have already been introduced to some great books and fabulous narrators.
That being said, what would your dream job in the bookish world be?
Yay! That’s awesome, I’d love a job like that!

I’ve been ridiculously excited about it since the minute I started talking to the Editor/Publisher. Are you an audiobook listener? I may be able to sneak you in early for some tire-kicking on the community, if you’re interested :)
