13185: A Mistake About Predicting Your Future You Can Easily Avoid

06/25/24 • 4 min

Hey there, hero!
We get comfy when we have a pattern to look at: we create a life for ourselves, we get into a habit, we get systems in place and we think that's it.
It's never going to change. What we have now is what we will always have, good and bad.
But is that really true?
Does what we have now somehow predict what we'll have in the future? Is what we have now all we can expect for the future?
Absolutely not. Think about the completely random nature of our business. And how we are training to get better, working on new things.
I'm in the midst of a project right now that I didn't see coming.
And that can happen to you...at any crazy moment.

13184: Keeping All Your Audiobook's Voices Straight

Hey there, hero!
Had a great time on the VOBB (VO Booth Besties) with Jen, Jen and Aleesha:
https://www.boothbesties.com/
...and I had the chance to answer some questions from the attending audience of VO talent.
One question that came up was "How do you keep all the voices you create for the characters in an audiobook straight? How do you avoid using the wrong voice for a character by mistake?"
Great questions, and one that has a number of different possible answers. Let's explore exactly how to do that - especially as an actor (or writer).
How do you keep everyone straight? Is this a challenge for you? Let me know in the comments below.

13186: What You Can And Cannot Effing Change

Hey there, hero!
I'm now subscribed to two newsletters I cannot quit.
One is from James Clear, and the other is from Mark Manson.
Mark is the one that can't stop using the F word in his book titles.
But that bit of profanity can distract you from the power of his writing. And in particular, the writing in his weekly newsletter.
In a recent edition, he talked about what we can and cannot change. And it's worth talking about.
Ever struggle with trying to change something that you simply can't? Let me know in the comments below.
