I love listening to your narration of ANY story. Ridiculous that someone would suggest you hire a female narrator! Some people spend way too much time looking for opportunities to be offended. And your American accent is pretty good; seems a lot of actors immediately fall into an exaggerated Texas accent when trying to sound American. Keep up the great work.

[@lux.illuminaughty]

From one Lisa to another, I couldn't agree more. I love this man's voice! He could read ingredients lists or instructions for how to change tires, and I'd be here for it. I enjoy his post-story chat, sharing information about about the author he read or the inspirations & bits of real life that pop up in his own stories, in which we get to learn more about him. I love the starry wallpaper behind him when he films himself reading.

[@Aiko2-26-9]

The reason I click on any story you narrate is because your command of your voice and total absorption into each character makes any story come alive to me. The main reason I see a story you've written and immediately click on it is that I know I will get a delicious shiver down my back. Carry on, my friend. Ignore the riff raff and carry on.

[@ClassicGhost]

You are very kind and I do appreciate your lovely words

[@totmmalaysia1276]

The general rule is if you're narrating stories, your read all the characters. If i's a radio play, then actors read the lines. And none of those are etched in stone. You're doing a superb job. Some people are adding uncreative boundaries where there are none. You're no taking away anybody's job or rights. Carry on. We love them.

[@geraldeenconsidine7068]

Tony, it's such a shame that people can't just listen to the stories and enjoy them for themselves. Personally, I have listened to a number of your stories and never felt anything but enjoyment. Take no notice of the negative comments!

I don't think it matters whether you're a man reading a story about a female or vise versa.. It's a fictional tale and provided it's done well it doesn't matter to me. Why limit yourself? By the way, I enjoyed the story, with a bit of extra detail it would make a good short horror film. Cheers 👍

[@wendybirdangeladawn]

I choose the stories on KZbin, BBC sounds, archive, etc by the voice of the narrator. I enjoy your voice very much. No need for a female narrator. In fact when it’s a story that in the person of a female, I rather like the momentary mind adjustment to get used to a male voice. For what it’s worth that’s my two cents!

[@rneustel388]

I started listening to audiobooks back in the late 70s or early 80s, and on cassette, when I started working on a lot of needlepoint, and I never cared whether the book was written by male or female, or whether the main character was male or female. All I cared about was whether the narrator was clear and easy to listen to. I think your narration style is very good and one I could listen to for hours, and have done while listening to your audiobooks. I wouldn’t pay too much attention to the comments like what you were mentioning as I imagine most of your followers feel as I do. It took me a bit before I realized there was something “fishy in Denmark,” as they say, with the death of his family. Well done!
