Hello ladies and gents!
My name is Jack- I'm pretty new to this site, and the work everyone does here! I was looking around trying to find how to volunteer for audiobooks, and whilst looking for another organization that does books for the dyslexic, I found this!
Primarily, I am working at improving my vocal skills to voice act. I have a feeling that there are many other people here attempting to do the same, so don't hesitate to say hello if you are!
Thank you guys so much for inviting me to be here- let's tell some stories together!
Jack Emmett (Jackett)
Hello there, from PA!

You are welcome! I can see you recorded your one minute test. Someone will listen to it shortly. And give you a feedback. I think I can help you a little. I am not sure but I think you should amplify your recording. Here's a video explaining how to do it: https://youtu.be/z_z607awyLw
It would be better to wait for a professional proof listener's feedback.
Good luck with your recordings.
