Sleepy Time with a Return to Little Women

Little Women by Louisa May Alcott

A sleep podcast can be tricky, because I need to engage you without it being too interesting. So fiction can be a risky proposition. Happily, despite the charms of the story, Little Women is far from action packed. So your slumber won’t be prevented by any excitement.

SleepPhones, our exciting new partnership

In our experience the best way to experience the bedtime stories of Sleepy Time Tales is with some type of headphone or earbud, but they can be cumbersome and uncomfortable.

So we’ve partnered SleepPhones, manufacturers of headphones designed specifically to sleep in! They use a thin speaker fitted to a comfortable headband and have options from the cost effective wired headphones to the convenient Bluetooth model and will work with Sleepy Time Tales to improve your night’s sleep.

To check them out go to sleepphones.sleepytimetales.net to check them out and support Sleepy Time Tales.

New Merch Store!!

I’ve partnered with TeePublic to setup a new merch store.

But because I’m no visual artist I’m taking advantage of a great TeePublic feature that allows me to share the works of other creators; expose them to my audience, allow their work to be purchased, and receive a small cut myself.

Check out the storefront at https://www.teepublic.com/stores/sleepy-time-tales?ref_id=25247 or go directly to store.sleepytimetales.net or merch.sleepytimetales.net.

I’d also like to issue a call. Any listeners with works up on TeePublic, please feel free to let me know and I’ll look at adding your stuff to my store. No promises, but I do have a few thousand monthly listeners, so that may help give you a boost.
