I feel like this is one of those jobs where you never stop learning. Whether it's coaching, or better ways to prep, or auditioning for a new genre, there's always something. #audiobooks #narrator

First comes the audition... then the contract... then It's time to prep the book. I take notes on the characters, how the author describes them, along with any notes as to their personality as they talk. #audiobook #narrator #voiceactor

I thought I would be SO SMART and try the Kindle talk to text on my phone to get through a book (which does not have an audiobook currently). It didn't take me long before I went back to the other book I was listening to. Why is the kindle AI voice SO BAD? #books

What are you struggling with this week? Almost always for me it's either being behind on editing audio (not super behind, just a little), or reading reviews when I shouldn't. Ughhhhh. #struggling #books #audiobooks

Let me tell you... I have been tasked with slowing tf down with my narrating and feel the emotions of the story. As a chronic Gilmore Girls speed talker, it's HARD. #narrator #voiceactor

There are SO MANY different types of mics, and pre-amps, and software out there for narrating. I Googled everything early on and found something within my budget. I then took all the money I earned and upgraded FAST. #voiceactor #microphone

I have a growing list of #narrators that I love. Natalie Naudus was my first love. Lucy Rivers in Butcher and Blackbird was PERFECTION. Samantha Brentmore and Eric Nolan in Leather & Lark *chefs kiss*. Skysong with Nicky Diss I listened to with my daughter and was INCREDIBLE.

A question I think pretty much every voice actor/narrator gets asked is how do you get into this? My response is always the same. Narrators Roadmap and Narrator.life are the best places to start. #voiceactor #audiobook #narrator

Occasionally I'll have some kind of brain glitch while recording and will have to re-do a sentence MULTIPLE times. Do you struggle with words too? #narrator #voiceactor #audiobook

Before I get into the booth for a book, I've read the entire thing, taken notes on the characters, pronunciations, other questions I need to ask the author. I've also cleared character voices, pronunciations, and gotten answers to those questions. #audiobook

I am incredibly picky when it comes to the voices I'm willing to listen to for HOURS for an audiobook. My recent favorite narrators include: Natalie Naudus, Lucy Rivers, Sebastian York, Teddy Hamilton, Rose Dioro and Angelina Rocca. #audiobooks #books

I had been narrating for about 6 months and was trying to figure out how to keep my throat from hurting after spending 6+ hours a day recording. I went to singing lessons and learned about vocal warmups. There are some super short (5 mins) ones on Apple music I love. #vocalhealth

Probably 90% of the character voices I use, I pull out of thin air. But some come from context clues in the text, and others from movie and tv character references from the author. #voiceactor #audiobooknarrator #audiobook

I'm not gonna lie, I cannot remember who all had asked for codes for this hilarious sci-fi audiobook I narrated a couple of months ago. So if you want a fr33 copy, I'd love for you to listen and review if you feel comfortable. US and UK only. #audiobook #scifibooks #books

Everyday starts off the same for me: breakfast, scheduling podcast social media, and then getting in the booth for a couple of hours. #narrator #voiceactor #audiobooks

The weirdest thing I've had to do for an audiobook was listening to mule videos to make the sound into the mic. The author loved it 😂 #audiobooknarrator #voiceactor #animalnoises

Every voice has an audience, but not every person can handle the work that is voice acting. From warmups, to mic placement, to prepping and performing, it's all so fun and fulfilling but also WORK. #voiceacting
