A Story Deserves Its Time.
Long-form narration asks for consistency, stamina and an ear for the author's rhythm. The point is to keep the listener inside the writing.
Audiobook Narration.
A short manuscript extract and an overview of the book are a good start. Include the genre, intended audience, character requirements and expected length so we can discuss an appropriate approach.
Hear The Right Read.

Before We
Record.
Every brief's a little different. These answers are a useful starting point.
Can I Send A Manuscript For A Quotation?
Yes. Include the manuscript length, genre, delivery requirements and desired schedule.
Do You Handle Editing As Well As Recording?
Recording and post-production requirements can be included in the project scope.
How do you maintain a consistent performance throughout a long audiobook?
Longer projects benefit from an agreed narration style, character notes, pronunciation references and a structured recording schedule. These help maintain consistency in pacing, tone and character delivery across sessions.
Can you perform dialogue for several characters in the same audiobook?
Yes. Character dialogue can be differentiated through changes in tone, rhythm, attitude and delivery. The aim is to make characters recognisable while keeping the performance believable and appropriate to the story.
Can you supply edited and mastered audiobook recordings?
Recording, editing and mastering can be discussed as part of the production requirements. If your publisher or distributor has specific audio specifications, send these through before recording so we can agree on the required deliverables.
Need an Audiobook Voice?
Send the brief, the book, and where the recording will be used or sold. I'll take a look and we can discuss the right approach.
