When you read fiction, do you visualize the scene in your mind? Can you hear the voices of the characters? Feel their emotions? If you’re anything like me, reading can still be a multi-sensory experience even though the sensations are imagined. And if The Awakened novels provided any of those experiences for you then I could really use your help.
Last month, I began accepting narrator auditions for the audiobook version of The Awakened series. With careful consideration, I’ve narrowed the choices down to three talented candidates. Each has a unique style and would bring a different set of strengths to this project. Now, I could just pick one and move ahead, but then I’d miss this opportunity to get your input. You’ve read the novels. You’ve fought alongside these characters. You’ve suffered with them just as I have.
So I’d like know, which narrator best embodies the characters you’ve come to love (or hate, as in the case of the villains)? Which one seems capable of articulating your experience with this epic story?
I’ve put together an online survey where you can listen to the auditions and vote on your favorite. Click the link below to get started.
***As of 8/1/14, this survey is closed. A narrator has been chosen for The Awakened audiobooks, and production is underway!***
P.S. Each audition is 10-12 minutes long. If you don’t have enough time to listen to everything, skip around to ensure that you get a good sampling of each narrator before casting your vote.
Thanks so much for your help,
