FA-A-A-AN TASTIC!!!

If anyone ever wanted to know why the spoken word has so much more power than the printed word, they need only listen to George Guidall.

Thank you Mary!

I loved what he had to say about finding the rhythm of the read.

It's a darn shame that audio book narration doesn't pay that well. Because it has to be one of the most challenging types of VO to really do well.

It could be (just a guess) that it does pay well... for those who've been doing it for a number of years and who excel at it. Maybe these folks don't record at home, but at another studio where someone else handles the editing. There must be something, or people like George Guidall, Scott Brick, or Barbara Rosenblat wouldn't do it... unless they do it for fun.

Just a guess.

Thank You for sharing Mary. It's really not about the money but rather than joy of a good story to tell.
