Hi there

I am a retired banker from South Africa. This stressful career took its toll on me and I opted for early retirement.

I am here to add value to this interesting initiative and to learn and practice the art of voice acting. And I am hoping to come across some interesting books.

I run my own YouTube channel focussing on overloading, camping, 4x4ing and the outdoors.

My wife and I will be taking a short break until the end of January and will then be looking for a project to get involved with.

Thank you for accepting me.

Take care

Steve

Hi Steve and a big Welcome to LibriVox! You will enjoy being creative here as well as having fun. I've made a little video to welcome people; It has some basic info about us that I thought might be helpful to know right at the start. In any case ask lots of questions, we are a helpful bunch here and you will fit right in. https://youtu.be/mwtn_2d3_qs
Oh and Maria, our LibriVox pickle, can hardly contain her excitement Image

Eager to get started? This video will walk you though the steps from just starting all the way to recording your first section. And get you recording quickly!! This video has links to each step. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OKLWam9cfVo&t=74s

Thanks for the welcome and information, Phil.

The video (and the others linked in it) helped me.
