Howdy, good people.

Hoping to become a new reader on LibriVox in the future.

I am from Belfast in Ireland, and recently I'd been getting a lot of people telling me that they find my voice soothing, and would love to hear me reading books. Quite fortuitously, I stumbled onto this website this week, so thought that I would sign up and try my hand at narrating. Hope to get started soon!

Welcome Brett!

Belfast is one of the cities (and in the country) I am yet to get to in all my travels... I hope you enjoy reading for Librivox! I had the same comments said to me by some friends so that is why I signed up earlier this year too!

Your next step is to do the 1 minute recording once you have gotten your mic and downloaded Audacity...if you are going to use that free software for recording.

I'd be very interested to hear a new Irish voice! I will watch with interest!

I'd suggest starting with the Short Works forum as that has short pieces to get your feet wet, before you dive into longer stuff. (After you've done your 1 minute test, of course.)
