The Correspondent by Virginia Evans receives the 2026 Audie Award for Ensemble Performance! 🍾🍾 @audiobooks 

I’m thrilled and deeply honored to have been invited into a project so precious and special as this. From the very beginning, @virginia.l.evans trusted us all to bring this beautiful, touching story to additional audiences through narration.  Every narrator signed off their letters and exchanges with brilliance as they passed the baton to the next. I’ve never been part of anything so dearly beloved; it’s honestly surreal. 

Thank you, Virginia! Thank you, Kelly, and all of the kind folks at @prhaudio for always believing in what I can do. Congratulations to you all, Maggi Meg-Reed, Jane, Carly, David, Chris, Mark, Petrea, Robert, Kimberly, Jim, Cerris, Jade, Peter, and Steve. It was amazing to celebrate in New York with those who attended, but sending big hugs and high fives through the internet. 

The greatest achievement in my life, and a night I’ll never forget. There are so many deeply talented narrators and ensembles; to share the category with you all is truly humbling.

I had a fantastic time attending the 2025 Audie Awards! I’m so honored that John Schu's Louder Than Hunger was recognized as a finalist for Middle-Grade Audiobooks. 

I could not have told Jake’s Story without our incredible team. My first Audie nomination, produced by my mentor, Orli Moscowitz, has been such a full-circle moment in my life and career. October Crifasi is a one-of-a-kind director who operates with compassion, thoughtfulness, and artistic vision. John is our hope and hero. My appreciation for you all is boundless. 

In a short time in the industry, I’ve achieved the greatest achievement of my life. This honor affirms my pursuit of following my passion and living the life of an artist. 

I look forward to returning someday.

Today it was officially announced Louder Than Hunger by @mrschureads is an Audie Award Finalist in Middle Grade!!! 

Telling Jake’s Story was one of the greatest moments in my career. It is an honor the Audio Publishers Association selection team recognized Louder Than Hunger for excellence in narration, production, and content. 

We wouldn’t be in this moment without John’s bravery in living and sharing his truth. @thehuntress13 was the perfect director and a dear collaborator. Orli has the magic touch. It’s an amazing celebration for everyone involved in making this audiobook. 

Thank you, @prhaudio, for trusting my voice and believing in our work. I can’t wait to celebrate with everyone at the Audie Awards. 

Cheers my friends! #audies2025 by @imjeffebner

✨ Today I’m celebrating Still Lost: Tales from the Year 2080 by Sam A. Miller, released earlier this September! ✨

“From the beloved creator of the wildly popular Sam O’Nella Academy YouTube channel, an irreverent and timely science fiction collection that offers a wry look at the not-so-distant future.” - @prhaudio 🧡

Told in vignettes by an incredibly gifted and talented cast of narrators, Still Lost was an amazing opportunity to work in Sci-Fi. I narrate the final story, “Beat,” an emotional, personal account of a young man who must save his own life from the music that’s taken it hostage. 🎧

Thank you, Sam, for trusting me to approach your work with delicate sincerity. I’m honored to have been the voice of “Beat”. Thank you to the amazing Nithya Rajendran of @prhaudio for believing in my strengths and encouraging me. This production features exciting editing and engineering from @johnmarshallmedia, thank you for your excellent work. 🫶🏻

✨ I’m filled with such pride to be recognized as a 2026 Narration of Distinction Finalist by @pronarrators ✨

PANA is an incredible nonprofit organization by narrators and for narrators! The NODs serve to celebrate and amplify human voices advancing the craft of narration in audiobook performance. I stand next to dozens of talented narrators who bring such presence to their work. It is an honor to be selected with you, and it continues to motivate my practice. 🙏🏻

🔪 Grin by @dwgillespie was such a blast to record with @bethhickstalksback at @prhaudio, with our producer, Brady Emerson! It’s a gnarly story for any middle-grade readers who love horror, streaming, gaming, and scary, killer, possessed uncles🫣…I’m so delighted to be recognized for my storytelling in Grin! Thank you so much to the judging committee for hearing my voice and believing in me; that’s all I ever want. 🫶🏻

Take a listen, and please take a moment to check out all the Narration of Distinction Finalists! 👏🏻👏🏻 by @imjeffebner

🕸️ I can’t keep my secret any longer! Spider-Man Tales of a Web-Slinger #1: Sandwiched! (@marvel) by @nickeliopulos is officially out today! 🕷️

It is the coolest honor to be anyone’s, Peter Parker. To be someone’s hero, even if it’s only through a playful story on audio, leaves me so proud.  I love Spider-Man; YOU love Spider-Man; we all do! I spent so many years teaching little kids in New York; maybe one day they’ll find out Mr. Jeff was actually Spider-Man. 🦸🏼

Nick Eliopulos is an amazing writer for young audiences, with two officially licensed Minecraft book series! I’m so thankful to be the voice of your Spider-Man. You’ll meet Gwen, Miles, Madame Web, Doc Ock, Flash Thompson, and many more beloved comic characters in this first book. ✨

Thank you to the amazing team at @prhaudio 🧡 Thank you, Amber, for believing in what I can do every day. I’m here thanks to you! Thank you, Maureen, for being my copilot and creating such a joyous atmosphere; you inspired the fun! 🫶🏻 @amcita & @maurmontie 🫶🏻

As a fun lil bonus, my dear friend @roshan.jacob and I did a photoshoot recently (more to come), and to loosen up, we brought a special someone out; you may know them… 

With Love, Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Jeff

✨ Feeling so excited and proud to see Roxie in Color by @diane.debrovner & @stacycervenka featured in the latest audiobook reviews from Kirkus 🦮 | @kirkusaudiobookreviews ✨

I think all of us can relate to Roxie’s desire to be understood as who she wants to be rather than what people know about her. It takes a lot of courage for any middle-schooler to confront their identity, but at least she has Nash, who will always understand her. 🐶 

Beautifully narrated by @ariamialoberti, Roxie In Color is the perfect audiobook companion for one last summer family road trip before the fall. I’m touched to be a small part of it. 🫶🏻

Thank you, and congrats 🎉 to our wonderful team: Diane, Stacy, Aria, producer Nithya Rajendran, & director Barbara Vlahides. 👏🏻

✨ Last week, Sunny Side Up, the first graphic novel in the New York Times Bestselling “Sunny” series, debuted the official audiobook companion for @scholastic Audio! This semi-autobiographical story by @jenniferlholm, illustrated by @matthewholm, follows Sunny as she uncovers family secrets, learns how to make friends, and begins to figure out what it means to grow up. ✨

It is masterfully produced, with ambient environmental sound, music accompaniment, and lots of laughter.  This story is told by an all-star cast of gifted narrators; it’s such magic to work with fun, crafty storytellers. Thank you, @_erin_spencer and the whole team at @bespoke_audioworks for advocating for my casting and designing this special production. It’s an honor to bring Dale to life, Sunny’s older brother, who undergoes his own changes as a teen. 

🎧 Tune into a scene at the local pool in 1975, between Dale and Sunny, brilliantly embodied by @mycousincourtney ✨ by @imjeffebner

✨ Happy Release Day to The Doll House by D. W. Gillespie! 😬 

“When a boy moves into his late grandfather’s mansion, he discovers eerie spell books, creepy dolls, and strange noises. But one doll feels especially off—maybe it’s nothing, or maybe it’s…watching. This creepy middle grade read is perfect for fans of the Goosebumps series.” - @prhaudio 

I am so thrilled to narrate my second title for you, @dwgillespie! Fans of Grin will, of course, delight in this truly creepy tale about a boy uncovering the dark secrets his grandfather left for him. I’m so grateful for new opportunities to help kids find great literature in any way. 🫶🏻

Thank you to Brady Emerson and the wonderful team at PRH Audio for always believing in my work. Thank you, D. W., for trusting me again to scare your audiences! Thank you to the team at JSR Post for making things sound amazing. 🧡

Be warned, you’re in for a creepy listen… available everywhere you find audio…😨😰🫣 by @imjeffebner

🥹 It was so nice to discover this affirming and thoughtful feature in the July Narrators Profile from the @voicestoknow team. To whoever wrote this, thank you so much. It’s hard to measure what makes good storytelling or a good storyteller, for that matter. Still, I try to always bring emotional realism and presence, especially in work for young audiences. I feel so proud to hear that these efforts reached your ears. 🙏🏻

It’s wonderful to be referred to in relation to the performances of the great @janinaspeaksvolumes. So many talented narrators have shared their craft across hundreds of titles. I hope to be like you one day. 

Found Sound by @megwolitzer & @charliep.anek is such a fun adventure to listen to. Receiving the Earphones Award from @kirkusaudiobookreviews was another incredible surprise, but so many skillful artists worked on the production. Thank you, Meg, Charlie, Allen Towbin, Sarah Jaffe, and JSR Post. 🫶🏻 @prhaudio 

For a short story, I worked on “The Typing Lady” by @ozekiland. Dubbed “pleasant” and a “fitting choice for this collection” by Kirkus, I’m honored to have the chance to work with such a prestigious author. ✨

✨ Last night, I participated in the PANAcon Narrator Showcase! I shared just a pinch of Harry Landy from The Correspondent, the indescribable debut novel by the gifted @virginia.l.evans ✨ 

It was an inspiring group of narrators covering all genres, accents, and journeys in their careers, with an amazing host @korenpaulvoiceovers. Organized by @pronarrators, you can find the recorded livestream on their YouTube! 

It’s pretty tough to tell a story in ninety seconds 😅 but I hope it encourages you to listen to some more audio wherever you find it. Thank you for listening 😁🎧 by @imjeffebner

✨ Happy Audiobook Release to WHEN? by Anthony Prebor, the third installment in @aquestionseries | @anthonyprebor ✨

“Lainey Moore throws herself into her work as a physical therapy assistant. Whether at the hospital or visiting homes around the city of Philadelphia, there is plenty to distract her, even if those old thoughts keep trying to bubble up. Then, as the clock ticks, she’s consumed by something else. Something unexpected. Something eerie. There’s that one patient she just can’t shake. An initially quiet, compliant man who further clings to her with every visit.” 🎧

The book is brilliantly performed by @stevi.incremona, with some contributions I make along the way. Thank you Anthony, for trusting my voice and encouraging our choices and discoveries. The world waits for what questions will be asked next…⁉️ by @imjeffebner
