Over on my Audio production blog, Novel Audio Design, I posted a snippet of chapter 18 when the young schoolgirl, Elena Markworth, is screaming in the middle of a nightmare. The scene starts off in the novel with Elena screaming and the father rolling out of bed to console his daughter. The text has the narrator, Jorjeana Marie, screaming her head off! Jorjeana provided so many takes of her screaming that I began to fear for her voice at one point. But she was able to finish off the rest of the production wonderfully well. With so many takes of her screaming, it would have been a shame to leave the majority of them out of the audiobook. So I edited and designed her performance with sound effects for just a short while before returning to Jorjeana's narration.
