New Reviewer

We would like to welcome a new reviewer to the team. Bethany Baldwin is an actress and writer, writing and acting in multiple mediums. She believes in the power of a story to shape hearts and minds and seeks to wield that power with wisdom, whether through writing a script, or voice acting in an audio drama, or whatever other doors the Lord opens. When she isn't running around trying to keep up with her many projects, she enjoys being an aunt to many sweet nieces and nephews, crafting, the occasional video game with friends, and taking in stories in as many forms as possible. She is a proud member of the Audio Drama Alliance. Make sure to show Bethany some love on social media! Welcome to the team!
