About this listen

“Sam was brushing her hair when the girl in the mirror put down the hairbrush, smiled, and said, "We don't love you anymore." So began the Twitter Audio project, with a dazzling first line penned by New York Times best-selling author Neil Gaiman. What followed was an epic tale of imaginary lands, magical objects, haunting melodies, plucky sidekicks, menacing villains, and much more.

From mystical blue roses to enchanted mirrors to pesky puppets, this classic fable was born from the collective creativity of more than one hundred contributors via the social network Twitter.com in a groundbreaking literary experiment. Together, virtual strangers crafted a rollicking story of a young girl’s journey with love, forgiveness, and acceptance.

I could see myself enjoying the story if the sample didn't have the use of one word 5..? 6? times within 2 minutes.
Shame I would have liked to listen and was intrigued.
But darkness was said enough in that short span of time I knew it would drive me mad before the end of the intro, let alone finishing the book.
Who checked this and how did they not notice!? And say something to the author!?

would have listened if not for repetitiveness
