![]() One of the joys of my job is receiving a selection of audio samples deemed suitable as potential voices for my characters for the audio book format. The email arrives with approximately six book links connecting me to the Audible website. I then sit, usually with goose bumps running up and down my spine, repeat playing each sample with the named character in mind. It’s surreal! Suddenly characters that I’d created on paper come ‘alive’ via accents, intonation and hesitations. It always amazes me how the audio team are spot-on with their initial selection so much so that I rarely comment or query their choice. As always, today’s selection were perfect. I love the subtle difference between each actors' voice; each delivering a personality and warmth, without jarring the other characters. If you’ve never listened to an audio book, Amazon and Audible offer audio samples for each title on their websites. Have a listen, you might be surprised what an enjoyable experience an audio book can be whilst driving, gardening, walking or DIYing!
