Pre-pandemic I already worked from home a lot, but also went to studios in person, mostly in London. Obviously, that went away during the pandemic, and even now, 95% of my work is from my home studio, which I love. My booth is a soundproofed room in my garage, full of sound blankets, foam squares, carpet, and a combination fan/heater for all temper...
I mean, I’d love to meet the home studio narrator who HASN’T gotten partway through a chapter before noticing they forgot to press record… so that’s just basic.

I’ve worked on so many different genres, I feel ...
I listen to audiobooks, but often it will be non-fiction and biography/memoir, which (bizarrely) is something I never read on paper, but love on audio. Having said that, Edoardo Ballerini reading the Robert McCammon books is a legend, and Bahni Turpin reading The Hate U Give and On The Come Up by Angie Thomas are phenomenal. If I were you, I would ...
