Thank you for the warm welcome Penny! In fact, when the email notification came in I was reading your thread about the difference between Voice-Over and Voice-Acting - it's obvious I have a lot to learn! I'll check out Positive Thinkers UNITE!.

Best, Andrew.

Thanks for your good wishes, Penny! I had a lovely day at the Jersey shore, listening to an outdoor concert by the orchestra of St. Peter by the Sea. It doesn't get any better than that!

Penny,
Thanks for the warm welcome! I'm looking forward to being a member of the Universe and the Positive Thinkers group. I'd love your suggestions on VO history and milestones I should highlight in my VO history blog: http://www.kevinsvoice.com/category/vo-meter/
Thanks again,
Kevin

Thanks for the welcome, Penny!
I recently was listening to Voice On Demand podcast where you and James were the special guests. After listening I thought that you were the kind of people that I look forward to getting to know. In fact, I just got Art of Voice Acting today in the mail from Amazon, so I guess I will get to know James better.
I've been teaching vocal music and musical theater and still love it, but wanted to break out into the world of voice overs because it's so much of what I teach, every day. Feels like a good fit so far.
See you around on the forum!

Great, Penny. Thanks. And, of course, I have James' book "The Art of Voice Acting". It was one of the first books I read on vo.

And, I do remember that exercise now that you mention it. I will definitely use it tonight. I have a live announcing gig at a community summer concert series. Fun stuff!

Talk to you later.
