I am Alisha Chopra from India. Singing had always been my passion and have also been a motivational speaker at some private gatherings. I also took a training in voiceovers so now keen to record various books.

Hello, Alisha, and welcome to LibriVox. I'm sorry about the long delay in answering your post.
Your singing background will help you enormously ... not least because you start out knowing that at least some of your listeners like the sound of your voice! It can be difficult for a new reader who hasn't performed for other people to acquire this confidence. Long, long time ago I used to sing casually in folk clubs (in the Enland), so I started with that advantage, too.
Your introductory email will guide you through the first steps, and Phil has made a video to introduce you to LibriVox, too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OKLWam9cfVo&t=74s
You can always get help in the Need Help subforum, further down the main page of the forum. It's a friendly place.
I hope you'll enjoy your time here.
Peter
