What makes me a great choice for audiobook narration?
I have over 25 year's experience as a stage actor, expert in detailed character analysis and portrayal;
I also have over 20 years as a teacher, teaching English literature to my classes;
I have deep, rich and articulate vocal tone, with comfortable portrayal of characters of any gender or age;
I focus on conveying the emotion and nuance of the narrative, drawing listeners in;
I undertake careful preparation of the given text, to ensure the best delivery - this is a performance, not a read;
I honour the intentions of the writer - I aim to enhance and convey authentically the author's message.
Comments on narration:
"Ms Archer-Woodcock told this story wonderfully! One of the best I've heard. Every intonation, every chuckle, every pause was perfect. At times I could see the places she narrated as if I were there." (Daughter of the Sun, Audible review)
"Lucy Archer Woodcock’s voicing carries the story with authority and authenticity that really elevates the first person narrative. Her ability to convey the complexity of Eleanor’s emotions and reflections on the politics of ambition, achievement (and men!) adds a welcome layer of depth to the story. Her seamless transitions between characters and accents create an engaging listening experience, ensuring that each moment resonates with the listener." (Daughter of the Sun, Audible review)
