For years I have voiced other peoples projects. In 2018 I'm finally voicing my own project, even if I have to pay for it myself! Yes! I am self-published and proud of it! I am making my dreams come true. SidewalkStoriesLives.com
The audio books and music is, of course, where I really get to shine. Writing poetry is where I started expressing myself (in rhyme) as a child, then moved forward writing songs. That began my storytelling experience. Understanding how a song is best performed live helped me tell a better story as a voice over actor and a writer. Voicing my own characters gave me a clear connection to who they are and how I want them represented.
My biggest, long term goal is to make Sidewalk Stories into an animated series. Working with illustrator Kate Shannon has been a dream in itself! We have developed iBooks with animation on every page, audio narration and all the songs for that story! Soon to also be an app on google play. Being able to read, watch, listen and sing all in one place has truly brought Sidewalk Stories to life.
Hearing kids are coloring in the coloring book at the local library then checking out the paperback is thrilling! I love the coloring books, which is why we made all the Sidewalk Stories Series into digital coloring books with iBooks, along with paperbacks on Amazon.
Every day I am working toward my goal. Today is the day. SidewalkStoriesLives.com
