According to Radio Times, the very best audiobook narrators don’t just read a novel – they perform it. They inject life into a book, adding pace, emotion and tension with their voice alone, while mastering all character accents, tricky location names and often foreign languages.

Emmy-nominated voice and video artist Kristen Simoes has professional training in voice-over, yet she’s the first to admit that narrating an audiobook is a LOT harder than you think.

I’m thrilled that she lent her time and talent to converting the first book in my “Enter the Between” series into an audiobook that, if all goes according to plan, will be available at Amazon in time for your Christmas shopping.

Here’s a clip of Kristen narrating BETWEEN WILL AND SURRENDER in her recording booth.

As always, thanks for stopping by.
