I'm from Toronto,Canada and I am recently retired. I had always wanted to try narration and now that I have a little extra time I looked into recording for Audible. Quickly realizing I was nowhere near ready to take on a large project, I decided to come here and start slowly. I think this site is a wonderful idea and I look forward to being able to contribute. I will upload a test audio soon and would welcome any feedback :D

Hello, and welcome to LibriVox. I'm sorry about the long delay in answering your post.

I see that you're already submitting recordings; I'm glad you were able to work your way through the first steps so quickly. You can always get help in the Need Help subforum, further down the main page of the forum.

I hope you're enjoying yourself. I know how much work is needed to create even a short recording; don't let it put you off!

It's an addictive hobby; I've been at it for around fifteen years ... it's a shock to me, too.

Howdie Daniel! 😎

I know nothing about Audible, but the most of things here are pretty clear and well-accessible even to newbies like you and me.
I`m pleased to see you figured out everything well and are just recording your first books.

So, welcome and thanx for coming! ✨
