Hello Everyone

I am Glenn from College Station, TX, USA.
I am a Quality Assurance Analyst for a financial call center by day. I enjoy cycling in my spare time, as well as dabbling in the world of audio recording. I have always been told that I have a nice voice, but when I tried to audition for several recording studios I was told I needed to develop a more conversational recording cadence. This comes from experience (I am told). Thus, I decided upon LibriVox to provide that experience, and to provide the world with recorded public domain works in the process. I am excited to actually record anything worthwhile for the public at large, and revel in the experience reading for LibriVox can help me obtain.

Best wishes to all who read this.

Welcome Glenn!

You might like to wander through the Project Gutenberg Bookshelf.

But first we request the 'one minute test' - just to check the technical stings - not an audition.
After this a few recordings from the 'Readers Wanted' threads, just to get the hang of recording and editing.

Have fun

Carol

Thank you Carol. I have already submitted my 1 minute test and gotten high praise for it, so I'm good to go. I signed up for 2 chapter segments in 1 project and submitted a request in the launch pad for a SOLO work I would like to do. I look forward to tackling the challenge. Thanks for your advice and have a great day.
