Audio Book Demo
Despite the fact that I have been distracted by the spring clarion call to the garden and dogs and skunks, I have managed to put together my new non-fiction audio book demo. You can listen to it here.
I’ve always been drawn to longer, narrative voice work. When I got into voiceovers, that was where I felt my niche was. But, it is great fun doing commercials and other short form voice work. The challenge of creating and getting across a character and idea in 30 or 60 seconds is exhilarating.
I have been reading a lot of different books on marketing recently and they all seem to agree on one thing - specialization. I now see I have allowed myself to be sidetracked and have been marketing myself to too broad an audience. Consequently I’ve decided to go back to what I love doing best and focus my attention on nonfiction audio books.
Of course if my voice is just perfect for a commercial or phone message I'll be thrilled to do it!!
