Bar Rag – Sandra Moran Reads from Nudge
Hey there dear listeners! Do we have a special treat for you: Sandra Moran reads from her brand spanking new book Nudge
Seriously, we had a fantastic time and can’t wait for Sandra to come back and spend more time with us. Give a listen and then buy a copy or download a sample of Nudge by clicking here.
Oh! I forgot to mention it during the recording but how about that cover?! You gotta love a book with a great cover.
The uber-talented Ann McMan did the cover!!!
I love her covers. Truly. She’s got a gift.
a great cover and after hearing Sandra read from the book I am looking forward to reading the book..
That’s the spirit, Pandabree!!!
accents were almost not present – ’tis hard to roll in the scottish brogue when Fiona was talking. On the good side I thoroughly enjoyed listening to the reading by Sandra of the first chapter. I’ve already purchased an e-book version of the book, but would terribly LOVE to have an autographed paperback copy!!!
I am AWFUL at accents!!! AWFUL, I tell you! I’m much better at typing them. 😉
The amazing cover had me intrigued as to the story. Listening to Sandra read the prologue, even after she said , she wouldn’t say prologue ; brought the characters to life. A little insight to each, even though the Scottish accent needs a little work. I am so glad I listened to the reading, I am looking forward to reading the rest of the book. Thanks to Sandra for the reading .
Thanks for listening, Melissa. Yeah, the accent … sigh….
Love it!
Thanks for listening, sister!!
Sandra, you put the PRO in prologue! Thanks for the laughs, visuals and awesome reading!
Even though I wasn’t going to read the word “prologue” … 🙂
Enjoyed the reading Sandra as well as the humorous conversation prior to the reading and afterwards. Have Nudge on my reader and have already started reading the book. The cover design is great. I do believe it looks somewhat similar to one of figures found in the Sistine Chapel. Keep up the good work Sandra!
Every stinking time I’m around Andy and The Rev they make me laugh like a lunatic. Or maybe I really am a lunatic, Leslie, and they just bring it out in me …
I really enjoyed the reading from Sandra! I am looking forward to the book! Count me in!
you guys always have so much fun, it is hilarious listening!
Thanks, Marie! Thanks for listening. (And yes, they ARE hilarious).
The time went by so fast. You all made me smile with all the fun you were having. Please count me in.
It was the Diet A&W root beer combined with the power of Andy and The Rev. It’s a heady combination.
Loved it! I can’t wait to read this book!
Thanks, Erzabeth! It’s, as you know, a very different book from Letters Never Sent. Good luck in the drawing.
Lovely and perfect! Great job, everyone
Thanks, NS! C&A make it feel like you’re just hanging out in a living room and suddenly decide to read aloud a little. As is often the case here at home. I just start reading aloud.
At home or at the gym. You know, wherever.
🙂 (Crazy Stairmaster lady has finally LOST it!)
I NEED to read this book so bad! Awesome reading Sandra, 🙂 this show definitely cheered me up. Hilarious as usual. 😀
Thanks. Those two make it fun!
It’s our mission to cheer you up, Gooch. Love ya, little sister.
Aww thanks! I appreciate it. 😀 love ya too!
Thanks for all the great comments, everyone! Andy and I love having Sandra join us to chat. Can hardly wait until the next time.
Good luck to all of you on winning the book!
Oh Sah-da!! So that’s what you sound like? Great reading, i think you should be a newscaster as a second job. 🙂 Really…what a cliffhanger. I must read the rest!
That’s what I sound like, Cari. Sigh.
I meant that in a good way!
Cool. Thank you all. I am not in the draw for obvious reason .. Spence already organized “Nudge” for me. I already read the prolog (in case I wouldn’t understand). Okay, I did, all words I know anyway .. Thank all of you again.
Hey Andrea. If you want to play, I can offer up my next one, All That We Lack.
ATWL sound great to me. Yes, I play. And: Thank you! for offering, Sandra. (One can never have too many books.)
Very nice reading. I look forward to reading more.
Thanks, Skeeter. I’ve vowed never to have anyone with foreign accents in my stories ever again.
Fun show. I’m intrigued and this definitely goes on my must have list. Please put my name in the drawing.

Thanks for listening, CW.
Not having a religious background I wasn’t sure your book would interest me. So I was glad the Rev brought this up in the discussion. The reading was interesting though, so I might have to get ‘Nudge’ after all. I also went online & read the description for ‘Letters Never Sent’ – it sounds like a book I would like.
Hi Cindy. There is no need to have a religious background. I didn’t come from one either. I’m glad The Rev mentioned that, too. It’s more about the idea of how alike we all are. Please let me know what you think after you’ve read it. Thanks for your kind words about Letters Never Sent. They’re very different books.
Finally found the time to listen to the interview and reading. I have already read the book, but the background information was excellent. You ladies also had me in stitches. Andy, I also have a Hawaiian shirt that I’m (Scottish accent here) “fairly bustin out of.” So, let us all bust together. Oh Sandra, me girlie, ya’ve gawt to practice th accents. I was so hoping for the good Polish accent from the guy in the plaid shirt….lol. Great read! Sandra, I didn’t notice any Kansas accent any different from the way we talk here in Wisconsin, but my sister said you sound like Ellen. Again, great interview!
Us Wisconsinites have no accents. Except for those who sound like their from Minnesota…
I am going to go buy a Hawaiian shirt today! And thanks, Lori, though I have to say, I am never going to write characters with foreign accents again. 🙂
Great episode and reading! I definitely have to try Nudge. 🙂
