She has a south eastern drawl but she does a good east coast accent. I like the voice actors that can alter their accents.<br />I prefer to use an actor that comes from the area my character does though. I hate mispronounced words especially since I am from and write about Louisiana.

A bad voice actor can just KILL it though. So I'm going to share with you some of my favorites.<br /><br />Out of the male voice actors out there, one of my favorites is Halter Graham. He does all of Sherrilyn Kenyon's audiobooks from Dark-Hunters to Chronicles of Nick. http://www.audible.com/pd/ref=sr_1_2?asin=B002V1BEGK&qid=1374500056&sr=1-2<br /><br />HOWEVER, I feel you should only go with a man if:<br /><br />1. You have a very strong male voice in your book and you're in his pov more than your heroine's. <br /><br />2. Your book is not in first person female. That's just confusing to me. I've seen it done before. Same goes, please do not use a female voice actress if you're in first person male for the same reason. It really throws me off when I'm listening.<br /><br />However, your books are all done in 1st person female if I am not mistaken. So my two absolute favorite female voice actresses are:<br /><br />1. Amanda Ronconi. I discovered her when I got Nice Girls Don't Have Fangs by Molly Harper.<br /><br />http://www.audible.com/pd?asin=B00391ZSS6<br /><br />While not an exact match, she reminds me a bit of Julia Roberts. Amanda is PERFECT for a spunky voice. That girl who is a little clumsy, not completely bad ass. Fabulous for humor. Great for Southern Sass.<br /><br />2. I love, love, love Tavia Gilbert. She's extremely talented. I discovered her when I got Halfway to the Grave by Jeaniene Frost.<br /><br />http://www.audible.com/pd/ref=sr_1_3?asin=B003EYRWCS&qid=1374500371&sr=1-3<br /><br />She does an excellent job on both male and female voices. She can do both serious and humorous lines and has a wealth of voices. If I got to choose a voice actress for Moonstruck, Tavia would be would be my first choice, Amanda my second - only because not all my females are spunky. Amanda would be great at Moonstruck and my Kitsune book but I'm not sure how she'd be with Blood Moon - the second in my serious with such a serious heroine. Then again, she could be amazing. I just haven't seen her do those kinds of books.<br /><br />Now, another actress that's really good, not sure she's right for MY books but is still pretty talented is:<br /><br />3. Kristen Potter. She's got a deeper, bit more sultry voice that is perfect for a serious book or a cop-style book. I discovered her when reading Primal Law by J. D. Tyler.<br /><br />http://www.audible.com/pd/ref=sr_1_3?asin=B007AK55HG&qid=1374500589&sr=1-3<br /><br />Its a military Alpha werewolf pack. She's excellent capturing male voices but it seems to me that her female range is a bit more limiting. Not enough to bother me in the book, but if you have more females than males, probably not the actress for you. But this is excellent for a strong female lead who has lots of male friends.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01869749194579397109noreply@blogger.com
