It’s been so much fun working with my narrator, Dana Allen, on an audiobook version of The Crimson League: The Fight for Hope.
Maybe it’s just the distance I had from the story before going into the project, but listening to the chapters as they come in . . . I didn’t think it would feel like my story and characters coming to life. But Dana is doing such a good job with the voices, and I love it, and it does feel like that to me.
I’m sure I’m biased, but I am very happy with what Dana is doing. For me, as the author, listening to the book is a bit how I imagine watching it as a film would feel. I didn’t anticipate that.
I’ve been shocked at how hearing dialogue in voice, in character, with tone and inflection as from an actor, is impacting me (in a good way!) It’s quite powerful. As I write this, I’ve listened through chapter sixteen. I can’t even imagine how intense and wonderful certain scenes in the last half of the story will be! (If you’ve read the book, you know things pick up in the second half).
It’s been a fun experience, and I’m enjoying it more than I thought I would.
Stay tuned for further updates on when the final audiobook will be finished and available! I can’t wait.
