Reading for a Living

So, for the past few months I've been auditioning for books and finally got my first book recorded. It's a great feeling to have accomplished something like this. Why?

  1. Honest Work - it really is. If you think it's easy, you should try it sometime. 
  2. Use of the Studio - my studio is great for music projects, but it's nice that I can use it for something else, like another person's project, once in a while. 
  3. Experience - I've always loved voiceover work, and this is something I'm good at.

You may be asking, "Wait, you've been auditioning for months and JUST got a job?" 

Well, actually, yes and no. See, I got my first job doing a romance book, but the book was too racey for me and I had to turn it down. I've also been asked to do erotic titles (because of my deeper voice, I guess). 

But, yeah, it's hard to get voice over work. The competition is high and there's a lot of talent out there. 

I hope to do more of it though. I really enjoy working in the studio.

New blog

If you want to keep up with my writing and stuff, check out my new blog.

However, I would like to say that my new adventure isn't without it's bumps. I thought I could let this blog go, but it turns out, I have to keep it going. Can't reinvent yourself to often or you never get anywhere. It's sort of a catch 22.

You can't get anywhere unless you move forward, but you can't move forward unless you keep one foot firmly planted whence you came.

So, for now, we shall see what new adventures I shall have. You can read about them here and there.
