Please note: If you are submitting interview questions outside of a blog tour – please also include your author/narrator bio and the book media kit/details. When sending interview questions please include the selected questions that were answered. We will be copying the questions and responses into a blog post.
Below are some potential interview questions for an audiobook narrator.
How many books have you narrated and do they have a common thread or theme?
What do you love most about narrating audiobooks?
Do you prefer to read in print or listen to stories in audio?
How do you select a book to narrate? Do you prefer a specific genre or types of characters?
Do you read a book several times before you record the audio? Or *gasp* do you just about memorize it?
How do you decide on the specific voice and tone to do for each character?
Do you have a ritual or routine you do before sitting down to record the audio (such as anything to strengthen your vocal cords)?
Name an audio book you just loved to listen to. What about that narration makes it special?
What qualities make a great narrator? Share some tips for aspiring voice actors.
Is there a scene you just loved to narrate? Is there a scene that was especially difficult to narrate?
