Outsider’s Insights

I applied as a narrator for audio books. One of my two big goals right now. My voice trial was in Mid-March. And I had to wait and wait.
Last week the phone call came: “You got a minute?” Ooops. Wrong tone of the voice. “Eh, yes, of course.” Knees becoming weak, mood dropping.
So, in principle, everything’s alright, but… BUT. I have to get rid of my “regional accent”, as the audio books are delivered nation-wide - til Mid-June. Four weeks to go, and I feel under stress.
I think I can do it - yes, tiger, be optimistic. I know. But still… I already went through one big voice change this year - but then again, you learn and live.
