Congratulations Gary Leo Smith and Danielle Muething on a great podcast for Page Counts

09/17/2024

Shannon Parks will meet with OAN on October 24th at 7:30pm via Zoom and you are invited to join us. She will discuss her coaching services, give us a quick coaching lesson and answer questions. Shannon has been a professional audiobook narrator for over twenty years with over 500+ titles in many genres, numerous Audie nominations and Earphones awards, and a devoted fan following. She has been described as a “genre-defining narrator” by Audible.com; having a “sonorous voice, rich and full of emotion” and as having the “coveted ability to disappear as the narrator, letting the story take the limelight it deserves” in Audiofile Magazine. She is also a highly respected audiobook narration coach and acting teacher. She narrates as Marguerite Gavin. You can learn about her coaching at www.shannonparksnarrationcoach.com. See our FB event for details on how to join this meeting

Thanks to Gary Leo Smith for spending some time with Buckeye Crime Writers to educate them about what the audiobook business and why they should consider getting their books made into audio books. Apologies to Jenn Walden that she was not able to participate because of technical issues.

Although this looks like a police interrogation, rest assured it's just my appearance on the Buckeye Crime Writers podcast last Saturday. Catch the full recording at https://buckeyecrimewriters.org/bcw-blog/

On Aug 3, OAN made a presentation to about 35 authors at Into the Springs Writers' Workshop about how to produce an audio book. Sandy Kachurek, the workshop director, had this to say about it: "The attendees of Into the Springs Writers Workshop were blown away by the Ohio Audiobook Narrators' three-hour professional presentation that included demonstrations using participants' stories. Every writer needs to know what OAN has to offer. I'd invite them again in a heartbeat."

Thanks to Gary Smith, Gretchen LaBuhn, & Becky White for making this happen, with some assistance from Angus Freathy.

Photos will follow in the near future

In case you missed this years' workshop, Sandy is already planning the next one, Aug 1-3, 2025.
