Summer sale runs through August 25

Don’t miss our special summer sale! From now through August 25, Accents & Dialects for Stage and Screen Deluxe Streaming Edition is 15% off. That’s $67.95 instead of the usual $79.95. Go here for details and to order. (Select “Deluxe book w/streaming audio” from the dropdown menu.)

Perfect timing for the upcoming academic semester! Plan in advance and save money.

The lower price is available on PaulMeier.com and also applies to the iTunes ebook (Apple Book) version but is not available on Amazon. However, if you’re a Prime member, Amazon still might be a better bargain because you pay nothing for shipping. In addition, if you’re outside the United States, your own country’s Amazon might be the best option.

If you’re a professor or instructor, YOU GET THE 15% ACADEMIC DISCOUNT ON TOP OF THIS SALE if you order five or more copies by August 25 – just $57.76 per copy! And students, pool your money, place an order for five books, and get the academic discount too. E-mail Paul at paul@paulmeier.com for details BEFORE ordering.

Holiday sale and free Christmas gift!

Looking for a great gift for an actor this holiday season? Or looking to save money while improving your own dialect and accent skills? My book, Accents and Dialects for Stage and Screen, makes the perfect stocking-stuffer for the actor in your life! He or she will love mastering its 27 accents and dialects, using the book’s fun exercises and accompanying sound files.

And to make it more affordable, from now until January 3, I’m offering $10 off on both the Deluxe Streaming print edition AND the iTunes ebook (Apple Book) version. That’s just US$69.95 (or US$69.99 on iTunes) instead of the usual US$79.95.

The Deluxe Streaming edition is a printed book with the sound files available via streaming audio from any internet-connected mobile device or computer. It’s available for this discounted price on this site (select Deluxe book w/streaming audio) until January 3. (The iTunes ebook must be purchased directly on iTunes by the account holder who wishes to use the ebook, but what a great inspiration for an iTunes gift card!) The original CD version of my book is still available for its usual price of $99.95 but does not contain Jamaican, Estuary, or Birmingham.

Please note that the discount is not available on Amazon. However, if you are outside the United States, you might find it cheaper to order the book through your own country’s Amazon, such as Amazon.co.uk or Amazon.ca.

And now … my gift to you: my audiobook reading of Charles Dickens’ beloved A Christmas Carol. Just click the link to start listening absolutely free. (The link will expire January 3.)

As 2024 draws to a close, may your holidays bring peace and joy to you and all your family.

Summer sale on plays and musicals

For the first time ever, Paul is offering a summer sale on his popular dialect/accent recordings for plays and musicals. Normally priced at $349 for an entire play/musical, the recordings have been reduced by $100. So that’s just $249 for the dialect/accent design for an entire production, delivered via streaming sound files. The sale runs through July 31 and includes complimentary copies of the appropriate accent/dialect ebook. Go here for more information and to see if your play or musical is among the many that Paul offers.

If your show is not among the many that Paul offers a complete package for, you can still take advantage of the sale. If Paul offers only some of the characters in your play or musical, E-mail Paul and he’ll be happy to discuss a special offer.

And, as always, if you don’t see your production listed, Paul is happy to talk to you about preparing new recordings just for you!
