It’s rare that I’ve had the opportunity to hear the voice of someone whose words I read on the Internet.
Well, here’s yours! You can now hear me sound like a nervous automaton.
Back in the early days of summer I wrote/narrated a piece for CBC radio. I finally have a copy of it, and have uploaded it for your listening, um, pleasure.
It’s hard to hear your own voice. Frankly, I think I kind of sound like a dork, and not nearly as sultry as I would have liked. E_NUN-CEE-AYE-TING EV-ER-RY SING-GLE WORD will do that. If I ever have the opportunity to do something like this again (despite my nervousness I would love to), I will try harder to just read, and not think too much about the actual words.
So without further delay: here it is. (Link opens 3MB mp3 file).
Whaddaya think?
