Our copy of Nona just arrived, so I can resume reading the TLT series to my wife, and I'm very excited!

Let me just say though: all respect to people who do the voices for audiobooks. 1. you gotta have The Range and 2. you gotta fucking study and mark up your copies in advance bc a lot of the 'how they said the line' or even 'who said the line' information shows up after the line in question. I have had to back up and redo dialogue bits bc I accidentally delivered them with "DIDJA PUT YER NAME IN THE G*BL*T OF FIYAHHHHH >:U [calmly]" level tone accuracy the first time

#sorry about That Example but it's the most well known one I could think of #but hey when I star out the vowels in goblet it spells out GBLT! get fucked JK!#was really bad at this w/Mercymorn's calm lines bc I gave her a very Yell At Your Manager inflection as default #so when I had to back up and deliver a flat tone Mercy line it nearly tipped over into my Harrow voice #yes I know there is an official audiobook done by a professional but like. I like trying to show off for my wife. And she reads to me too!
