Today’s Peace of Wisdom Can Be Found in Trusting That Even the Scribbles Have Purpose
The Content Barge arrived last night and this was unloaded for you.
As Andy was recording the audiobook of Return to Sawyerton Springs, we docked a handful of its chapters here at Wisdom Harbour, one at a time, so you could get to know the town and the folks who call it home. The recording is finished, and the complete audiobook is now on the Audiobooks Dock—every chapter, read by Andy himself.
The enchanting town of Sawyerton Springs does exist, and Andy Andrews has found it in the hearts of those who long to take a deep breath, relax, and take the time to find the humor and meaning in everyday life. There’s a little bit of this small town in all of us – a place apart, ”behind the times,” inhabited by a cast of characters we seem to have known for years. Savor the time you spend in Sawyerton Springs. You might just find another hometown you want to claim as your own!
If you heard some of those early chapters, they’re right where they belong in the book now, so you can pick up with the ones you haven’t heard yet. If you’re visiting Sawyerton Springs for the first time, start at the beginning and settle in. It’s nearly six hours of small-town humor and heart.
And there’s something new on the Audiobooks Dock, too: Wisdom Harbour now saves your place in every audiobook. Stop in the middle of a chapter and come back later—even on a different device—and you’ll pick up right where you left off. When one chapter ends, the next one starts on its own, and the book you’re listening to will be waiting for you under Continue listening on the Homeport and in the My Harbour menu.

Betcha Didn’t Know
The Truth, the Myth, and the Hairy Legend
with Dr. Mark Foley
Betcha didn’t know America has more mythical creatures than it has Waffle Houses. Bigfoot stomping through the Pacific Northwest. The Skunk Ape sweating it out in a Florida swamp. A goat-draining Chupacabra in Texas. A winged, howling devil in the Jersey Pine Barrens. In this Betcha Didn’t Know, Dr. Mark Foley takes us on a tour of the monsters lurking in our backwoods and our campfire stories — and gets to the real question underneath them all. Stick around for the one sighting that got police departments involved.
Discussion Questions
-
QUESTION 1
What roams your woods? Every place seems to have one — a hometown monster, a haunted stretch of road, a shadow somebody’s cousin swore he saw. What’s the legend where you grew up, and who told it to you first? -
QUESTION 2
Would you stick around to find out? Glowing eyes at the edge of the treeline. A footprint that’s too big. Be honest — do you investigate, do you run, or do you fumble for your phone and get the world’s blurriest photo? -
QUESTION 3
Why do we keep telling these stories? Dr. Foley suggests it’s because they make the world feel a little wilder and a little less predictable. What do you think we’d lose if every mystery finally got explained?
