01 — The voice

Hi, I'm Josie

The aesthetic might say fashion editorial but the work is all about the story. I bring characters off the page with a voice that's expressive and cinematic. Tell me about your world and I'll meet it where it lives.

02 — Find your genre fit

Genres I love

Your work may span genres. That's ok — mine does too!

Fantasy Romance Gothic Gore Spice Male POV

Start the conversation early. Include content and trigger warnings so we find the best fit — and avoid any nasty surprises.

03 — My approach

Hottake.

I like to record the way you listen — for the first time.

Most narrators read the whole manuscript before they record. I don't — and I know that sounds like a red flag.

Here's why: your listeners experience your book for the first time in real time. So do I. That first reaction, that genuine surprise, that emotion that catches you off guard…?

That's what ends up in the recording.

It's not laziness, I promise. I just prepare differently. We'll talk through your world, your characters, your pronunciations — anything that could trip me up. I'll know everything I need to know. Just not how it ends.
