HERE'S A LITTLE ABOUT ME AND MY VOICE OVER EXPERIENCE
I have been working as a voice actor and coach for 16+ years in San Diego, CA. My partner, James R. Alburger, and I own VoiceActing.com and The VoiceActing Academy. I am the author of Demo & Marketing Magic for Voice Actors and I am the co-Executive Producer of VOICE, (The VoiceOver International Creative Experience) which is the only convention specifically designed for voice actors.
I am also the VERY proud grandma to three beautiful little girls and one little boy - all under the age of 6. They keep me running, but being a grandma ROCKS! See their pictures below in the slide show! I'm just a "little" proud of them!

Penny:
No, I never left. However, when I tried to check in yesterday, they had no record of me and I had to start all over. Bummer! Lost all my contacts, friends, jobs done, etc. Oh well, thanks for the "Welcome Back"

Morning Penny,
Thank you for the warm welcome... My plan is to get very involved and get to know my fellow VO talents. Next couple days is going to be, getting to know Voiceover Universe and how it works...
Thanks again & Cheers
Penny,

Hi and thanks Penny. I heard your webcast the other day with Bettye. It was great. I, like you, started my voice over career later than most, but that only means that we brought a lot of experience with us. Thanks so much. As I have learned, encouragement is so key, I appreciate all the support.
This month I am going to Rodney Saulsberry's one day workshop - I can't wait!
In June, I am going to an animation intensive workshop - I have butterflies in my stomach about that, but I'm taking the plunge! I would love to be an animated character and I'm not going to let anyone talk me out of it! So, I'm practicing.
I do love Promos and Animation the best.
I really appreciate your encouragement! I am so honored to get your email! I am reading "The Art of Voice Acting" right now! I already started the book one week ago! Then I saw your name on my email - WOW! The book is unbelievable! I am reading it very slowly and trying to absorb every word and DO what you and Mr. Alburger say.
Sincerely yours, Cindy Weber

Hi Penny,
Thanks for the welcome to VU. Enjoyed your teleconference with Bettye Zoller the other night and when you said everyone should be on VU I agreed and joined up.
Hi Penny: Thank you so much for the warm welcome. I remember hearing you speak about the forum and will join! Regards, Karen
