Say What?

One of my critique buddies, Lisa Ludwig, shared some fan-freaking-tastic news with me yesterday. One of her books ( No Safe Harbor) was made into an audio book. How cool is that?

Which got me to thinking, if my stories were put into audio format, what would I want my characters to sound like? Should I really wait until that glorious day when my writing is formatted into sound bits before I start thinking about what my characters sound like?

I think not.

When I begin my new story on Nov. 1st, I'm going to really think about voices and choose carefully. How characters sound can be an extension of their personality, giving them more depth.

Here's my writerly challenge of the day...think about one of your character's voices, really think about it. What will you change or add?
