Plus, I know the sorts of nuance each character brings and can impart something of what they’re like at the nonverbal level. To be able to produce our written works in audio versions completes our audience’s spectrum of storytelling accessibility and for many provides a more profound experience than reading. Telling stories, whether in prose or song, is a listening sport. How did you become involved with audio book narration and production?

My mission is to wake people to the enhanced quality of life available through fully developed hearing. Most of us can hear farther than we can see and have deep sound vocabularies we seldom consciously bring to bear in appreciating more of all that goes on in our lives. Tell us a bit about yourself: I am all about sound. Audio books have been around for ages – I have copies on cassette tape (yes remember those?) and one on CD but now most are MP3 and far easier to listen to than having to change the tape every 30 minutes!Īs the first of these interviews I am very pleased to welcome Chris Morris, author, musician and audio book narrator. As part of the interviews discussing all parts of reading, writing and enjoying great books today something new.
