Things That Can’t Be Broken, a novel-in-progress by Shannon W Haynes
Nine-year-old Dani makes a fervent promise that there will always be horses in her life, so when she finds out her next-door neighbor won a scholarship to an exclusive horsemanship program, she vows to win one too. She never gets the chance—but her short life has a lasting effect on a community.
I’ve decided to record myself reading for those of you who enjoy audio books.
Welcome to the podcast version of this live draft of the novel, Things That Can’t Be Broken.

I’m a little nervous, just like I was when I first started publishing weekly chapters for you to read. I am not a trained voice-actor. Heck, I’m not any kind of trained actor/actress, but it’s worth it to me to read my chapters aloud if it makes it easier to share them with you. I’m afraid I will not do justice to my characters who have accents, but I’m not going to let that stop me, and my hope is, it won’t stop you from enjoying a listen.
My fingers are crossed this is working now.
I plan to add chapters as often as I can squeeze in quiet time to record them. They will be added to the previously posted chapters which you can always access from START READING HERE. I expect I’ll soon catch up to the written versions.
Special thanks to my son-in-law, Tyler Darlington, for helping me set up the recordings. And to Simon K Jones, for the encouragement and how-to tips.
