Ishmael’s Hot Line

Step #1.
Call Ishmael’s number: 774.325.0503.
It goes straight to voicemail.

Step #2.
Listen to Ishmael’s short answering machine message. It changes weekly.

Step #3.
Leave a voicemail about a book you love and a story you have lived.

Have a personal story linked to a book you love that you’re eager to share with the world? Now you can call Ishmael.

Callmeishmael.com is a new project that celebrate lives and books. The idea is simple: call the phone number and leave your story at the beep. Each week, some of the messages left will be transcribed and shared on the project’s website.
