I have 4 jobs. I barely sleep. I also do audiobooks and it's definitely a labor of love. Keyword: love, not labor. Introverts who love to read, write, & go deep truly enjoy audiobooks. Love your voice by the way. It's like honey. ❤

Spot on with punch and roll Peter. No matter what, you have to listen to the entire file again.

Very interesting video - before I got into working as a Voiceover artist, I spent over 10 years as a recording engineer in a VO studio, and I would say that "punch and Roll" works perfectly, PROVIDING, someone else is doing the punching and rolling - as a VO doing your own recording on a PC, forget it, you'll cut into a breath, make the pause too long (or too short) it wont be consistently natural.

Great video. I agree that audiobooks, especially the ones available to narrators through ACX, are a ‘labor of love.’ Love the advice. Cheers!

Please can you tell me where can I buy that thing on your walls? To make the sound better. What is the name for it? What is the link where can I buy it? Thank you for reading my comment. My voice is so bad that it destroys my life. I hope I can have a manly voice instead of a fearful voice.
