Listen here...


Afternoon Delight is now an unabridged audiobook!

I've done some audio work years ago, and I fully contemplate how difficult a job being a reader is. (Especially, for a novice like me.) I just spied this review for one of the books I worked on: "A good erotic story wrecked by what appears to be overacting menopausal chain-smoking readers."

At least, that one was tempered by this one, "Dramatisation is what sets this work apart from other erotica. Listen to sexual conversations between lovers. Sexy as hell. I had never tried a dramatisation before -- only the unabridged stories -- but dramatisation gives the stories a freshness and thrilling immediacy. I want more!"

I don't plan ever to be on that side of a studio again—my nerves were too nervy—but I am beyond thrilled that some of my books are now being translated to this format. Now readers—I mean, listeners—will have a whole new way to enjoy the collections!

Yay!

I love hearing how audio performers deliver our work. I have a copy of one antho in audio form where the reader is so amazing she can hold me captivated with my own story.

I used to be a reader, too, a long, long time ago. I'm not sure how good I was, but my client liked it. I guess I did funny voices for dialogue. (This wasn't erotica.)

That is so cool, Jeremy! I was a reader a long, long time ago, too—for the steamy stuff.

I can totally imagine you doing funny voices, btw.

I have no idea how I got the gig doing erotic voice work. I really can't remember the connection. My cheeks never stopped blushing the whole time I was in the studio!
