DAN O'DAY checks in with ALL ACCESS to share, "There's only one form of acting/voice acting for which the demand far exceeds the number of available performers: Audiobook narration.
"The sales of audiobooks have exploded over the past few years. Result: There are more audiobooks waiting to be produced than there are narrators to voice them. I've just released the first of a free video training series devoted to audiobooks. If the idea of getting paid to tell stories appeals to you -- or if you're already doing audiobooks but aren't having the success you desire -- check out the first free video here."
