Donny Swords interviewed Chris Morris (husband of Janet E. Morris, a timely article on Chris' voicing for the audible book version of the The Sacred Band.

Neat perspective on voice and hearing-art. Here is the link:

Janet E. | 56 comments Seth, Chris worked on this in his office down the hall, not sharing it until finished. I was delighted: it's difficult to tackle how arts can inform one another, but worthwhile. Thanks for posting.

This is a great interview. I love all the insights into how the crafting of spoken story builds on the written word. Reader, writers, listeners, and orators can enjoy/learn from this. There are lots of quotes from Chris that I liked. Here is one example:

"Linguistic anomalies can be heard by the ear and missed by the eye; our editing voice benefits from two sets of each. I’m frequently amazed at how much a slight alteration of pitch or emphasis can inform the net effect of syntax."
