At long last I have returned to the audio recaps with the long-awaited despite having been also long-recorded chapter five. Thanks for the patience, everyone. I’m hoping to get these out a touch more regularly. Once again the monotone robot voice, once again testing my limits with 50+ dude characters. Let’s dive in! Don’t forget to read along for visuals over on Jenny’s site.
Also if anyone wants some spooky fun this Halloween, be sure to pre-order The Winding Key. I’d appreciate it!

Happy Halloween, ghosts and ghouls! No matter where you are in the world I hope you’re finding ways to enjoy the holiday. It’s tough out there these days and sometimes it’s the little things that help you through it.
Speaking of little things, if anyone felt like treating themselves this Halloween, I’ve got a real fun book recommendation. Animal Instinct is the readin’ for the season.
I hope you all enjoy this recap. I’m afraid yet another dude voice turned up and I’m relying on really hackneyed accents to differentiate. I’ll probably never voice Riley again but there goes my terrible Irish/Scottish abomination.

So in Jenny’s recap of this chapter she mentioned how the last half should be read as though every sentence ended in an upward lilt like a question/Valley Girl. That was… challenging. Also heads up, there is a moment where I scream. It coincides with the pictures of Jenny having a meltdown so be sure to go over to her post and check that out.
Also, many many thanks to Jenny for plugging my book! That was so incredibly nice of her.

While editing I counted at least three exclamations of ‘fuck me’ after I screwed something up. It gave me the idea to one day share an unedited track with you guys before cleaning it up so you get an idea of just how many times I screw up the voices or mispronounce basic words. But today is not that day.
No, today is actually pretty exciting. My book Animal Instinct is live on Amazon today so anyone who pre-ordered, it should be available on your devices. If you haven’t ordered it then you can pick it up immediately should the fancy strike you.
And now for the recap. Be sure you guys check out Jenny’s site for pictures and the song she wrote for Ms. Sarem.

The voice I do for Lani/Zade, while accurately pegged by Jenny as the right fit, makes it incredibly difficult to get through the banal, repetitive, and often nonsensical descriptions in this book. I’m just dragging this bewildered speak and spell through hell in this recording and we all know it’s going to get worse before it gets better.
Never thought I’d miss Ana’s internal monologue. I’ve reached a new low, folks.
Get on over to Jenny’s post so you can see all the pictures!
And if you feel like supporting me, there’s two options. First there’s ko-fi and second you could hop on over to Amazon and pick up a pre-order of my book, Animal Instinct. Plenty of romantic vampire fun for the whole age-appropriate family.

Down once more to the dungeon of my amateur voice acting…
Down we plunge to the prison of badly written novels…
It’s been a long long time since I finished up the audio for Jenny Trout’s 50 Shades adventure. Or at least the audio for the first book. Nowadays Jenny’s tackling a different horrifying sea beast. It’s a book called Handbook for Mortals that recently caused something of a stir. Jenny explains the story in detail on her blog. If you want the nitty gritty, that’s the place to be. And you want to be there anyway so you can see the pictures and videos referenced.
Me? I’m just here to report her brilliance in harpooning the fuck out of this pile of garbage.
