I am Son of Sonnet

I am a theatre-trained voice actor, audiobook narrator, and poet. I usually work on indie projects as a non-union actor, and I’m generally available for commissions.

Portfolio

I recommend checking this audiobook trailer playlist for demoes I have created for most book’s I’ve narrated, where you can hear both my range of characters and my general style of narration. I don’t charge for audiobook trailers; they’re simply fun to make to thank the client and to advertise our project. Books I’ve narrated are available in multiple markets, such as Spotify, and some are available for free on YouTube.

There’s a longer playlist that includes other voice acting credits, but not everything I’ve done.

I also have a more concise playlist of character samples.

Pricing

Audiobooks and Essays

I charge $100 USD per finished hour, which amounts to roughly 10K words. A penny per word, generally. This is much lower than the market rate, but I want to keep myself at a reasonable price point for most indie authors. You’ll get quality that punches above its price point.

Dialogue for Videogames and Animation

$.10 per word, with three takes provided in WAV format.

Production Timeline

Please allow for a full month, formally, for audiobook productions. The actual timeline will be shorter, but is dependent on multiple factors, such as overlapping commissions. For voiceover commissions, of all three takes, please allow for two days for each 3000 words after the commission is accepted.

Payment is expected half up front, and half within three days of delivery. Up to two revisions can be requested within a full week of delivery. Revisions for Audiobooks are more lenient, as chapters will be provided as they are finished.

AI Policy

I do not, and I will not give consent to my voice being used for AI generations.
