I’ve always loved reading aloud. When my kids were little I read the Harry Potter series to them and they always insisted I “do all the voices.” I did some theater in high school and college, and did graduate work in a major metropolitan area, and I think I’ve just always noticed accents and dialects, and had fun imitating them. Then in 2013 an acquaintance mentioned that she was listening to an audiobook, and that her interest in the book was affected by the skill and style of the narrator, and she said, “you’d be really good at that,” and I thought Yes, I think I would! So then of course I went to the Fount of All Knowledge, Google.com, and from there I found voices.com and acx.com, and I bought a microphone and learned how to upload an mp3, and I’m completely hooked.

I'm currently narrating Grave Heritage by Blanche Day Manos, another good clean cozy mystery featuring Darcy & Flora, a mother-daughter sleuth team in Levi, Oklahoma. A stranger in town is murdered, and secrets form the past come back to life. There's something odd about the new preacher in town, and of course Darcy continues to disregard the warnings from Sheriff Grant Hendley that she should stay out of it! All this turmoil, delivered with a soothing southern accent, should be out by the end of November 2016.
